This is a fun charity group singalong with the original music and vocals from famous songs you love. Just some mics, speakers, the lyrics projected on a screen, and drinks. Everybody sings!

COVID-SAFE: We use disposable mic covers every song.

Q: What's the format?

There are guest mics for one or more people leading a song, and one for the MC. People take turns to lead the crowd through their favourite songs chosen from our song-list, with scrolling lyrics videos projected on a screen. Everybody may sing - whether holding a mic or not - and ALL singing levels are most welcome. This is not karaoke-style, this is a true group singalong with a full sound setup.

Q: Do I have to be able to sing well?

No, all levels are welcome! If you don't wish to lead a song on a mic just enjoy singing along with the crowd.

Q: How do I buy tickets?

Online from Humanitix (with an optional charity donation) or bring $20 cash as entry fee towards the venue hire. This gives you hours of enjoyment and is much cheaper than just a karaoke room (and better, too).

You may also make a further cash donation on the night to our chosen charity, the Heart Research Institute (HRI). Have a heart, have a sing!

Q: Are there drinks?

Yes! You can buy alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks from the bar. (BYO is not permitted.)

Q: Is there food DURING the event?

No. Please eat well beforehand, food is not allowed in the venue. There are lots of great restaurants and pubs with food nearby.

Q: What songs can we choose from?

This Dropbox link has our official lyrics video song list:

We'll also be featuring some songs from Olivia Newton-John this time as a tribute, and some Xmas songs. Costumes welcome!

Q: How to get there?

It's best to use public transport to Redfern Station. Easy! And better if you drink. There is usually some parking in the side-streets off Redfern St.
