Float On
The Dreggs, Peach Fur, Young Lions, Brixton Alley and more are taking to The Zoo's stage to raise money for flood relief.
Overview
Spend a night in Fortitude Valley listening to bands, help Brisbane recover from the past week's devastating weather: that's on the agenda at The Zoo on Friday, March 4. To support the city, plus flood-affected regions in Queensland and New South Wales in general, the Ann Street venue has quickly thrown together a big fundraiser gig that it has dubbed Float On — and if you head along, you'll pay your way in by making a donation.
The show is only doing tickets at the door, and only selling them via donation — with a $5 minimum entry fee. But the more you spend to get in, the more you'll be giving to a hugely worthy cause, with all ticket sales donated to GIVIT's campaign in partnership with the Queensland Government to help those affected by the current storms and flooding.
On the bill: acoustic performances from The Dreggs, Peach Fur, Young Lions, Brixton Alley, Mozza, Cooper Riley from Bad Neighbour and The Dandy's, with doors opening at 6.30pm. Everyone involved, including the artists, organisers and the venue, have all donated their time — so 100-percent of the cash raised is going to those in need.
The Zoo is also donating a portion of the proceeds from every Young Henry's schooner and Zoopreme Pizzeria pizza sold to GIVIT, too, so your brews and bites to eat will help out as well.
Plus, you can also enter a flood-relief raffle on the night, with prizes donated by Ball Park Music, The Jungle Giants, Bugs, Hope D and more up for grabs.
