Peter “Wally” Bamford Memorial Concert – 2026

We’re proud to announce the return of the Peter “Wally” Bamford Memorial Concert for its 21st consecutive year — a night of live music, community, and remembering a great mate.

Join us on Saturday 26th September 2026 at the Harmonie German Club, with doors open from 4pm, as we bring together an incredible lineup of local legends and crowd favourites, all coming together for a cause that continues to mean so much to so many.

This year’s artists include:

Angus Murray

The Bends

The Family Band

Lumpy Underdaks

Night Train

The Rubiks Dudes

The Winning Hand Blues Band

After 21 years, this night has become something truly special — a tradition built on great music, good people, and keeping Wally’s spirit alive.

There’ll also be a huge range of raffle and auction items up for grabs, generously donated by our incredible supporters and sponsors — so come ready to get involved and take something home.

All proceeds from the event go directly to the Centenary Institute, a world-leading Australian medical research organisation dedicated to improving human health. Their work focuses on tackling some of the biggest health challenges we face — including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and infectious diseases — through groundbreaking research, prevention, and better treatments.
