The iconic John Farnham has announced that he will be performing at the Qantas Credit Union Arena for the last time.

Not his last time of course – that was in 2003, and look where that got us – no, it’s part of the final few shows at the venue which includes two shows from Cold Chisel and a final show from Elton John.

Farnham, who has become of Australia’s most successful artists over his half-century career, has been gracing the Qantas Credit Union Arena (formerly the Sydney Entertainment Centre) with such hits as ‘You’re The Voice’ and ‘That’s Freedom’ for over 30 years. “They’ve been some of my most fun and memorable shows,” he said. “I can’t wait to get back and raise the roof one last time.”

Farnham will be joined by Daryl Braithwaite and Ross Wilson & The Peaceniks in the fourth last show at the Arena before it’s knocked down and replaced with a new one as part of the Darling Harbour redevelopment project.See it go down on Wednesday December 16 at the Qantas Credit Union Arena.
