The Big Exo Day Blog

Mission Australia helps thousands of struggling people each year find secure employment, housing, education and counselling as well as helping our communities through their other initiatives.

Taking into consideration the work that Mission Australia does for our communities nation-wide, Big Exo Day was proud to have Mission Australia come on board this year.

Thank you again to Mission Australia and all our sponsors of Big Exo Day 2009.

It was a big day and night of big bands, big rides and big stunts. We had the most amazing bands, FMX & BMX demos, skateboarding pros and special guests including Relient K, Lecrae, Tedashii, Steve Caballero and Reggie Dabbs to name a few. Check out the highlights video from one of the most excellent days in the year and remember that life can be Exo everyday and we can't wait to see you again next year!

We've heard some great things since Big Exo Day happened last Saturday. We had perfect weather with a bright blue sunny sky, the atmosphere was electric and we had over 10,000 people and around 1000 young people respond to the message. It was definitely one of the best Exos we have ever had!

All the zones were crazy! Strawberry Fields had massive lines for Napoleon touch ups, the Extreme Zones had epic displays and our first ever snowboarding display, Monster Skate had the legendary Steve Caballero ripping it up, Daylight Markets were buzzing, and all the band stages were epic with Blessed By A Broken Heart and Haste The Day putting on an awesome show in the Hardcore zone and the Hip Hop stage absolutely owning with something always happening with their great line up.

The night was kicked off by New Empire, Lecrae and Tedashii in the pre show then we had Exo favourite, Reggie Dabbs, speak after a great worship session with the Youth Alive band. Reggie's message touched the hearts of many young people that night and many will never be the same again. Then the night finished with the long awaited awesome show by US band Relient K and it absolutely went off!

Photos will be going up in the next few weeks so keep your eyes on this page!

We'll see you next year at Big Exo 2010 and if you didn't go this year, don't make the same mistake next year!

Online ticket sales have now officially closed.

Tickets will now only be available tomorrow at the gate at Big Exo Day in Sydney Showground for $45.

See you there!
