live entertainment sector in Australia

Enchanté: The Songs Of Tina Arena, presented by TEG DAINTY, visited 8 Australian cities throughout May and finished up in Canberra on Sunday night. Having successfully navigated each state’s current Covid rules and regulations for indoor music events, the tour played to the full set capacities and was an unmitigated success that had audiences raving.
Paul Dainty, President and CEO of TEG DAINTY said “We can’t thank Tina enough for spearheading the return to national touring in this country’s arenas and theatres. Especially in these times, it’s so important to have something to look forward to.
“As a community, the connection we feel through the power of live music is undeniable and it’s something we all sorely missed last year. Tina’s voice has never sounded better and her Enchanté shows were unforgettable. As well as further cementing her reputation as an Australian icon, Tina’s outstanding recent performances also brought some much-needed joy to audiences all around the country.”
Tina said “I feel extraordinarily lucky to have been able to tour and do my job during what is undoubtedly one of the hardest periods of time in recent history. The arts sector has been hit extremely hard and for us to be able to work again and help people escape and feel some hope and joy, even for just a brief moment in time, has been an immense privilege. Thank you to everyone who came to the shows, hopefully it won’t be long until we can get the Enchante Tour back on the road again.”
Enchanté: The Songs Of Tina Arena saw audiences returning to the following venues:
Brisbane, Convention & Exhibition Centre
Sydney, Aware Super Theatre, ICC Sydney
Gold Coast, Convention & Exhibition Centre
Adelaide, Entertainment Centre
Melbourne, Sidney Myer Music Bowl
Perth, RAC Arena
Wollongong, WIN Entertainment Centre
Canberra, Llewellyn Hall
Tina performed to multiple standing ovations each night, she delved into her hits and some songs she had never previously performed live, she shared brand new material (including her latest single, Church), touched on her extensive theatre work with an Andrew Lloyd Webber inclusion and also sang a song in Italian (her mother tongue). Her sense of gratitude was palpable, and Tina was absolutely in her element, back on stage doing what she was born to do.
Fan and media reviews for Tina’s world-class Enchanté shows were suitably glowing:
“While the easy option – especially now – would be another greatest hits tour, Tina Arena has never taken the easy option. Not that there’s not hits all throughout her Enchanté setlist – they’re just rubbing shoulders with deep cuts that will reward fans casual and diehard” – News Corp.
“This Enchanté tour wonderfully showcases the breadth of Tina’s artistry, which transcends genre and also embraces the magical worlds of musical theatre and opera. Boasting four-plus decades as an entertainer, Tina truly belongs on stage. All musicians onstage are undeniably virtuosic, but the finest sounds of all this evening come courtesy of Tina’s god-given instrument” – STACK Magazine.
The success of Enchanté: The Songs Of Tina Arena has set a positive precedent for touring indoor music events. While also adhering to the various state health department guidelines, Tina’s tour brought music back to the Australian people.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
