    Songbirds

    Two extraordinary voices, one unforgettable friendship

    Songbirds is what happens when two powerhouse performers, and 37 years of friendship, take full flight on stage.

    Join stars of the Australian stage and screen Gorgi Coghlan and Anna-Lee Robertson, with musical direction by Kym Dillon, for an evening of glorious music, razor-sharp banter and joyful rivalry, as they sing, soar and occasionally try to outdo each other — all in the name of friendship.

    From Bernstein to Berlin, Cole Porter to Puccini, Paul Simon to Adele, these two Songbirds glide effortlessly between classical and contemporary favourites, proving that great voices only get better with time (and a little healthy competition).

    Expect spine-tingling harmonies, laugh-out-loud moments and the kind of chemistry you only get after nearly four decades of shared stages, stories and survival.

    Warm, witty and wildly entertaining, Songbirds is a celebration of music, mateship and the magic that happens when lifelong friends take flight together.

    Our pricing model

    As a non-profit, we prioritise bringing singing and music to our communities, not maximising income. We work to make our ticket prices as affordable as possible, and we’ve shifted to an early bird pricing model instead of concession pricing. This change focuses on equity, allowing everyone to secure tickets at a reduced price and helping us keep the festival accessible to as many people as possible.

    Each event will have a set number of tickets available at the early bird price. Once these are sold, standard prices will apply. This ensures we can cover event costs while keeping the festival sustainable and maintaining affordable options for our audiences.
