This is part of the Australian music industry’s #VaxTheNation campaign, with news from the competition shared on social media last week.
“The biggest names in live entertainment are ready to tour Australia and getting the jab could earn you the ultimate Vaxstage Pass!” read the post.
“By getting vaccinated, you play a valuable role in putting live shows back on the road and making our community safer. “
The competition is open to Australians over 18 who have received both doses of their COVID vaccine. Registration is open now on the Vaxstage Pass website until November 30.
The #VaxTheNation campaign was launched earlier this month, led by the Live Industry Venues and Entertainment Alliance (including APRA AMCOS, ARIA, Mushroom Group, Live Nation and more). He calls on punters to get vaccinated so the Australian live music industry can “stop the interruptions” and “get back to the magic of live events”.
Over 225 artists have supported the campaign, including The Jungle Giants, Powderfinger, Archie Roach, The Amity Affliction, Gordi and many more.
The Australian live music industry is estimated to have lost $ 23.6 billion in economic output in 2020. This trend continued into 2021, with I Lost My Gig estimating a loss of $ 84 million in revenue from the 1st July to August 5 only due to ongoing blockages in the New South. Wales and Victoria.
