The concert for Tingha will see a number of artists from around the district take the stage on Saturday, March 9 from 10am.
Retro Rockers, Little Phoenix, Rattle Snake Willy, Buster Wilson, Crooked Tree, JJ and Biggles will entertain attendees throughout the day.
With Pete and Vicky Denoven taking care of the music side, and Tingha Veterans hosting the fundraising efforts, Bob Clark said the event was really an opportunity to unite the community.
"It doesn't matter how much we raise. It's more about giving the community a chance to get together and properly grieve, to have a cuddle, catch-up and shed a few tears," he said.
There will be an all-day barbecue, raffles, auctions, prizes and great fun to lift spirits.
