SHARK TO GET INTIMATE

WIN SEATS TO HER AUS DAY SHOW

- KIRSTIN PAYNE

AN Australia Day spent on the lawn with a snag in hand is good – but one spent with the Gold Coast’s favourite vocalist is even better.

To add some extra sizzle to Australia Day celebratio­ns this coming weekend, 350 Gold Coasters have been given the chance to chill with Amy Shark at an intimate live acoustic performanc­e on The Lawn at the Star Gold Coast.

Performing for an exclusive audience, the six-time ARIA awardwinni­ng indie singersong­writer will take to the Garden Kitchen & Bar Lawn stage for a chilled acoustic set from 6pm on January 26.

The tickets can only be won through Gold Coast radio station 102.9 Hot Tomato by listening in from today.

Fans unable to secure the exclusive tickets can take in the performanc­e live-streamed on the big screen in The Star’s Atrium Bar, with additional live entertainm­ent at Garden Kitchen & Bar on the night including fellow Gold Coast locals McKenzie Duo and DJ James Canning playing on the deck.

After a busy 2019 of touring, Shark said she was looking forward to spending time at home on the Coast.

“I’m so looking forward to being able to spend some time on the Coast and be able to perform a special acoustic set for a change,” she said.

“It will be a fantastic afternoon and evening of live music.”

The Australia Day celebratio­ns will form the finale of a summerlong entertainm­ent program at The Star Gold Coast.

The Star Gold Coast chief operating officer Jess Mellor said the Australia Day event was all about supporting some of the city’s best talents.

“The Star is passionate about supporting locals and how special to have one of the city’s most popular homegrown talents for a special performanc­e,” Ms Mellor said.
