Live Earth Sydney

Live Earth Sydney fu il concerto d'apertura della maratona musicale Live Earth, tenutasi in diverse città del mondo il 7 luglio 2007. Si tenne al Sydney Football Stadium, impianto polisportivo della capitale del Nuovo Galles del Sud, e per via del fuso orario (10 ore in anticipo rispetto al meridiano di Londra) fu il primo evento della giornata. Il cast si compose fondamentalmente di artisti originari dell'area Australasiatica come Missy Higgins e i Crowded House.

Alla conduzione dello spettacolo, durato circa 10 ore, si alternarono Peter Garrett, Jimmy Barnes, Hamish & Andy, Tim Ross, Adam Spencer e Ian Thorpe.
