Tony Armstrong to host TikTok's second For You Fest

TikTok For You Fest, presented by CeraVe will return for its second year on Thursday, December 15. 

Featuring music performances, creator appearances, and stand-up acts, this year's event will be hosted by Logie Award Winning TV host, Tony Armstrong.

More than 500 of the best TikTok creators will come together from across Australia for the event, which will be streamed live on @tiktok_australia and broadcast by 10Peach. TikTok’s night of nights will bring together the biggest trends, talented creators, and most talked-about TikTok moments of 2022.

Host Tony Armstrong said the night will showcase everything that's great about TikTok, "There's no doubt from the quality of performers taking part in this year's, For You Fest, that TikTok is a place where talent thrives and entertainment rules.

"It's been a game changer for many creators, opening doors that would traditionally have been shut without a record deal, production house or traditional stage. Many of TikTok's top creators have gone on to have international success, including LA born pop star, Leah Kate, who will perform live on the night."

Simon Bates, director of content programming, TikTok Australia and New Zealand said, "What a wild ride it has been at TikTok since last year's annual For You Fest, with this year’s event guaranteed to be even more spectacular. The quality and scope of creators in Australia and New Zealand gets better every year, and I can't wait for them to hit the stage in Sydney next month.

"Millions of people saw the show last year, with audience numbers this year expected to be even greater. I've no doubt our creators will slay. TikTok Australia is really proud of For You Fest, which was an idea that was born here and is now duplicated in other parts of the world."
