To celebrate what would’ve been the great David Bowie’s 70th birthday, some of his most legendary band members, as well as friends, and an assortment of world-class musicians are set to gather at the Sydney Opera House to honour the iconic artist and his incredible discography.

Celebrating David Bowie will be a global concert series event, each one taking place in a city that has a strong connection to the man himself and his work. Sydney’s concert will feature a core of two dozen incredible musicians, joined by our very own Bernard Fanning, Sarah Blasko, and Paul Dempsey.

Leading the band for this very special performance will be Mike Garson, Adrian Belew, Earl Slick, members of David’s last two touring bands, Angelo Moore from Fishbone, Latin Grammy Award Winner Gaby Moreno, Bernard Fowler from The Rolling Stones, Joe Sumner, and more.
