The stage is set in Sydney, for the world’s leading electric car and clean energy show, who will be on it?

  • Fully Charged presenters Robert Llewellyn and Elliot Richards to be the headline hosts of more than 40 fun-packed ‘live’ sessions at Fully Charged LIVE Australia

  • Australian YouTube stars Simone Annan (CarTell), Sam Evans (Electric Viking) and Rosemary Barnes (Engineering with Rosie) join the ‘fully charged’ line-up of hosts

  • Fully Charged LIVE organisers looking for expert panellists to appear on stage

  • Attractions also include Home Energy Advice Team, Test Drives and ‘almost’ every EV

  • 10,000-15,000 attendees expected at the ICC in Sydney on 11th & 12th March 2023

The Fully Charged SHOW, kindly sponsored by the NRMA, is coming to the ICC in Sydney this March and offers a world-class line-up of YouTubers, experts, attractions and companies.

The founder of Fully Charged – Robert Llewellyn (Scrapheap Challenge, Red Dwarf) – is bringing the award-winning Fully Charged LIVE expo to Australia for the 1st time.

Visitors to the Sydney Convention Centre in Darling Harbour on Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th March are guaranteed a fun-packed ‘festival of electrification’.

As the 8th edition of Fully Charged LIVE globally, the Sydney show benefits from an array of proven features like the Home Energy Advice Team, Electric Alley, Electric Launchpad and Watt Drive?

Electric Vehicles of all shapes and sizes will be on display – many of which will be part of the test drive programme – as the organisers endeavour to attract ‘almost’ every EV available.

However, at the heart of the events it is the ‘live sessions’ on stage, as hosted by familiar faces from YouTube and leading energy and transport experts, that sets these events apart.

As well as Robert Llewellyn, Fully Charged’s East Asia correspondent Elliot Richards, with his encyclopaedic knowledge of Chinese cars, will be hosting on stage too.

Joining them will be several Australian YouTubers including Simone Annan from ‘CarTell TV’, Sam Evans the ‘Electric Viking’ and Rosemary Barnes from ‘Engineering with Rosie’.

The Fully Charged LIVE team will host more than 40 ‘live sessions’ over the 2 days on topics such as ‘can Australia become a clean energy superpower?’ (see all sessions listed below).

While the hosts have been appointed and the session titles have now been published, the organisers are still searching for expert panellists to finalise the Australian line-up.

The Fully Charged SHOW YouTube production team is also in the process of scouring the country for interesting clean energy and electric vehicle content.

Robert Llewellyn is already on the ground in Australia and will be filming a combination of around 15 episodes and podcasts from Down Under in the coming weeks.

These episodes are the core elements of the promotional campaign to draw attention to Fully Charged LIVE Australia amongst its audience, and members of the public.

10,000-15,000 attendees are expected to descend on Darling Harbour on the weekend of March 11th and 12th on what is expected to become the annual must-attend event in the Australian calendar.
