Live4Life Annual Dinner 2025
Join our host Brian Nankervis and Australian music legend Paul Kelly for Live4Life’s renowned night of celebration!
Don’t miss out on this incredible evening — the time of the year when we come together and honour the achievements and impact Live4Life communities are having with young people in rural and regional Australia. Buy a table today to support this life-changing work — and have fun while you’re doing it! Bring your friends, your family, your colleagues!
Last year was a huge hit, so be sure to get in early and secure your tickets today!
This year, our irrepressible host Brian Nankervis will be joined by a very special guest — ARIA Hall of Famer, multiple award-winning, gravy-making singer/songwriter…the one and only Paul Kelly! With a vast body of work spanning six decades, Paul is the first name on any list of Australian songwriters. Paul performed RACV City Club! at Live4Life’s second Annual Dinner in 2019 and we are extremely proud to welcome him back ahead of his gargantuan Australian stadium tour commencing later this year.
Young people are at the heart of the work Live4Life communities do. Your ticket to the Live4Life Annual Dinner provides much needed support for rural communities and helps protect the lives of young people.
We look forward to meeting you at the RACV City Club!
Watch last year’s fun!
On the night
Enjoy delicious canapés followed by a two-course dinner with a range of beverages.
Sit back, if you dare, and let raconteur Brian Nankervis take you on a ride with stories, games and maybe even a quiz!
Why not try your luck and bid in our silent auction? There’s an incredible range of packages, experiences and items on offer and every dollar raised at the Live4Life Annual Dinner helps us empower rural communities to improve youth mental health and reduce suicide.
Prepare to be amazed, moved and proud of our young people’s courage, lived experience and strength through vulnerability, as we celebrate the impact of Live4Life in rural and regional communities.
This year, Live4Life is thrilled to present a special guest performance from an absolute giant of Australian music, the legendary Paul Kelly. Paul’s first public performance was in Hobart’s Salamanca Place in 1974. In 2025, he will embark on a tour packing out stadiums across the country. Across six decades, he has recorded a string of top forty singles and ARIA Award-winning albums, all the while stamping a huge presence across our cultural landscape. His 2017 Order of Australia acknowledged his distinguished service to the performing arts and the promotion of our national identity.
