Massive lineup comes together for marriage equality at Yesfest

Client Liason, Elizabeth Rose, Jack Colwell, Kirin J Callinan, Killing Heidi, The Preatures and Tkay Maidza are just some of the artists featuring at Yesfest, a national concert in support of marriage equality.

Staged at Sydney Showgrounds’ Spotless Stadium on Sunday October 29, itfalls during the final week before marriage postal votes are due back to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

All profits generated from Yesfest will go staright to the Equality campaign.

“We’re supporting Yesfest because we’d rather stand for people’s rights than stand in their way of receiving them,” said Flight Facilities, who also feature on the bill.

The event will be hosted by TV and radio show host Osher Günsberg, with Billy Russell, Christian Wilkins, Courtney Act, Danny Clayton, Jackie Loeb, Jordan Raskopoulos providing their support.

Yesfest will be broadcast live across Australia on YouTube and is supported by content partner MTV, who will be covering backstage via Facebook Live.

“When I was asked to do this show I jumped at the chance to say Yes because I believe in marriage equality,” said Jimmy Barnes, a special guest at Yesfest.

“Love is love and if you are lucky enough to find the one you love, why should anyone be able to tell you you can’t get married. It’s a basic human right.”
