All funds raised will go directly to the SJA to support the great work they do in in the Bega Valley community, including addressing social problems such as homelessness, domestic violence, bushfire recovery and much more.
As an example, the SJA gave over 80 caravans to bushfire victims at no cost. The SJA supports the community with dignity and respect and asks nothing in return. Now it is our turn to show support.
This special event will be staged outdoors on the lawns of Longstocking Brewery and Oaklands Event Centre, Pambula.
Headlining the show is the multi-award winning Black Sorrows with the iconic Joe Camilleri at the helm - Australian music royalty.
Supporting the Black Sorrows are some of the region's finest and most loved musical acts.
The O'Donnell Brothers (Pat and Andy) have long been one of the most popular acts ever to come out of our region, always attracting great audiences in their own right.
The Figmentz are the tightest six-piece outfit on the South Coast with an album of new original tunes about to be recorded, the brassy harmony driven band is red hot right now.

Lillian McVeity is quickly making a name for herself as a talented soloist. Her soulful vocals and guitar playing are truly a joy to hear.
