Best on song at senior fest

CHRISTINE Anu, Shannon Noll and Human Nature’s Phil Burton will lead the line-up for the highly anticipated Premier’s Gala Concerts during this year’s NSW Seniors Festival.

Free tickets to the concerts at the ICC Sydney on March 30 and 31, will be available through Ticketek from 9am this Friday.
State MP for East Hills, Wendy Lindsay, says the concerts are a ‘thank you’ to seniors for their contributions to our communities.
“These concerts are hugely popular among our seniors for good reason. They provide a great opportunity for them to enjoy musical and variety acts from some of Australia’s favourite artists, as well as have fun and meet new friends,” Mrs Lindsay said.
“The concerts will be live-streamed so that residents who can’t attend in person can still enjoy the shows.”
Thousands of seniors are expected to attend the concerts and the NSW Seniors Festival Expo, which will be running over the same two days at ICC Sydney. The free expo will feature more than 50 exhibitors showcasing the latest in travel, health, lifestyle and services, along with creative workshops and giveaways for all to enjoy.
Minister for Seniors and Multiculturalism, Mark Coure, says the concerts and expo are highlights of the annual NSW Seniors Festival which this year runs from Friday, March 25 to Sunday, April 3.
“Seniors have done so much for ours and future generations. It’s really important to celebrate and support them,” he said.
