The concert will again take place in the Essendon Keilor College auditorium; and is open for all students to participate in.

Each student will step on the stage and perform a piece of their choice to a very supportive audience. Family, friends, neighbours, anyone who is anyone is invited to come along! :)

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How much are tickets?

Tickets for adults over 18 are $34.00, and $20.00 for teens/children under 18. Anyone under the age of 5 does not require a ticket, and performers also do NOT need a ticket.

2. I see that the concert runs from 2-6pm. Do I have to stay for the entire thing?

NO. We know that you will be coming to watch your loved one perform, and it can be hard to sit through hours and hours of performances.

Therefore, all performances are grouped into 'Sessions'. For example, your child may be performing in session 1, which runs from 2:00-3:00pm. You only need to stay for that session, then you are welcome to leave.

Of course if you wish to stay and watch other sessions, you are more than welcome to do so. Each session runs for approximately 1 hour. 

3. Is the venue wheelchair accessible?

YES. There are both lifts and stairs which take you to the auditorium, which is one flight of stairs above the ground level.

4. Will there be food?

NO. Unfortunately due to a couple of reasons regarding logistics of the sessions and the venue's limitations, there will not be food provided.

5. My child feels nervous to perform. Can they change their mind on the day?

We understand that performing can be a hard thing to do, especially when it's your first time. If your child feels nervous, please assure them that every single person will be feeling what they are feeling, and even though the feeling can be unpleasant, most students report feeling elated after the experience, and report back that it was not as scary as they expected it to be.
Your child's teacher is likely to be there, as well as other member of the Full of Heart team, and all the families watching are very supportive.

Of course we do not force anyone to perform, if they change their mind please let us know at the earliest convenience to ensure the program flows smoothly.

6. Can I invite a friend?

Of course! Family members, friends, work colleagues etc... are all welcome to attend. The venue holds approximately 200 people at a time. Since there are roughly 20 students performing in each session, there are usually only 50-70 patrons at one time, with seating left over. 

If your child asks how many people they will be performing to, tell them that it can range from rougly 20 - to 50.

7. Do the performers need to pay for a ticket?

No, only the families and friends in the audience require a ticket.

8. What is the dress code for performers?

Performers are welcome to dress up if they feel comfortable in doing so. They may also wish to dress neat casual. The most important thing is that the performers feel Please refraim from wearing anything too casual for example thongs, singlets, or tracksuit pants. Remember this is a performance and you are the star! :)
