VIC:Doing it for The Voice: stars to unite for charity gig

Global superstars will unite to honour Australian music royalty John Farnham at a tribute concert.

Jimmy Barnes, Hugh Jackman, Celine Dion and Keith Urban are among the names expected to appear at the concert at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena in September.

Funds raised from the concert will go towards Head and Neck Cancer Australia, which supported the music legend during his own battle in recent years.

Farnham retired from public life after undergoing a 12-hour operation to remove a cancerous tumour from his mouth in 2022.

He has since been received formal confirmation from his medical team that he was all clear of cancer.

Promoter Tony Cochrane told Nine's Today Show the concert was a way to thank Farnham for his lasting contribution to the music industry.
