Christmas in July with Kamahl

Kamahl – the man with the golden voice – will headline OPAN’s special Christmas in July concert.

The hour-long event, streamed live from Sydney, will be hosted by CEO Craig Gear.

“It’s wonderful to be back performing in front of people after the last two years of COVID,” said Kamahl, who will showcase some of his greatest hits alongside all-time Christmas favourite.

“It’s especially wonderful to be performing in front of people my own age.”

Kamahl has recorded more than 30 gold and platinum albums in a musical career that has spanned more than 60 years. Highlights include performances at the London Palladium, Carnegie Hall, the Sydney Opera House and Big Day Out.
