The 2026 Alice Springs Masters Games Midweek Party delivered an evening to remember, with Shannon Noll taking centre stage and a crowd that was more than ready to let their hair down.
From the moment Nollsy stepped onto the stage, the energy was infectious. The Aussie favourite delivered the songs everyone came to hear, with the crowd singing along, dancing and making the most of a well-earned night away from competition.
And while Nollsy might have been the headline act, he certainly wasn't the only one bringing the entertainment. Gleny Rae Virus and Katanga Junior delivered fantastic performances of their own, setting the scene for a celebration worthy of the Games' 40th anniversary.
The Alice Springs Convention Centre was the place to be, with competitors, supporters, volunteers and locals coming together for a night of music, laughter and good company.
For some, it was a chance to celebrate medals and personal bests. For others, it was an opportunity to catch up with old friends, make a few new ones and enjoy everything that makes the Friendly Games so special.
And judging by the smiles, dance moves and enthusiastic singalongs, there were plenty of people making memories to take home.
Forty years on, the Alice Springs Masters Games still know how to bring people together.
Nollsy brought the hits. You brought the party. What a night!
