The Great Australian Show Raising Funds for the Wauchope Apex Club

✦ Country rock artist Benn Gunn is helping raise money for 100 regional charities across Australia with his Great Australian Show: a rocking tribute to Aussie “kulcha”.

Saturday 15th October, hosted by the Wauchope RSL Club Benn Gunn will be staging his Great Australian Charity Show. Money raised will go towards local projects that the Wauchope Apex Club are currently working on in the local community.

Benn says “The Great Australian Show is a musical celebration of all things Australian from the stations in the outback to every battler on the farms and the coast. It's a celebration of how tough Australians are and the mateship that has helped pull us all through this pandemic.”

Benn says “It's been a tough couple of years for all of us, but especially for people in many small towns across Australia and I want this show to give people a chance to get together and celebrate being Australian while they help raise money for their local charities.”

Benn has been writing Aussie themed songs, jokes and putting together all the elements of the show for over 4 years.
