THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER IN CONCERT DEBUTS AT THE GOLD COAST
Announcement posted by Thurnham Teece 17 Feb 2026
Following sold out 2024 performances nationally, and recent encore season at Sydney Opera House and QPAC Brisbane due to overwhelming demand, The Man From Snowy River In Concert returns debuts at the Star Gold Coast this May.
Southern Cross Symphony will perform the award-winning score by Bruce Rowland live to screen of this iconic film in concert.
The Man From Snowy River In Concert is a celebration of the enduring legacy of Director George Miller's iconic Australian film, whilst the live-to-screen performance will showcase the film's APRA and AFI award-winning score by legendary composer Bruce Rowland.
Inspired by the Banjo Patterson poem, The Man from Snowy River tells the exhilarating tale of Jim Craig, an 18-year-old who, after losing his father, must prove himself in the harsh high country and win the respect of the rugged mountain men. Along the way, he discovers love, adventure and a secret hidden in the hills more precious than any treasure.
The Man From Snowy River launched the stellar careers of Sigrid Thornton and Tom Burlinson. The movie, which also starred Jack Thompson, and the late, great Kirk Douglas ushered in a glorious new age for Australian film making.
Tom Burlinson said: "The experience of playing the title role in The Man from Snowy River kickstarted my career and changed my life."
This concert will allow audiences the opportunity to experience the beloved Australian classic on the big screen, accompanied by the powerful and emotive soundtrack played live by the Southern Cross Symphony.
