Star-studded bushfire relief concert

Star-studded bushfire relief concert draws tens of thousands to Sydney stadium

More than 70,000 people were expected at the Fire Fight Australia concert on Sunday, which according to organisers sold out within 24 hours of tickets going on sale.

Hosted by comedian Celeste Barber, who has raised more than $50 million for bushfire relief, all ticket profits will go to groups which are helping fire- ravaged communities get back on their feet.

Donations had topped $9 million as of 11pm on Sunday.
