The 50th anniversary series of the famous Qantas Pathfinders Revue, 50 Shades of Delay, has broken all records, raising more than $200,000 to support people with hearing and vision loss.

The sold-out show was written, directed, and produced by talented former and current Qantas staff, and performed at Norths Cammeray Club in Sydney from 28 October-1 November 2025. It raised $207,251 for NextSense.

More than 2,300 people attended the performances, enjoying a signature blend of humour, music and sparkle. What began in 1975 as a one-night performance with just six cast and crew has grown into a much-loved annual production, supported by more than 700 volunteers over the years.

The Qantas Pathfinders have now raised an incredible $9.4 million over their five-decade history, directly supporting NextSense.

NextSense Chief Executive Chris Rehn congratulated the Qantas Pathfinders on another spectacular revue and thanked the group for their longstanding support.

“It was such an honour to witness the 50th anniversary of the Revue and I am so grateful to everyone who contributed to the event. Your support will help transform the lives of our clients who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind or have low vision.

The passion and energy of the performers was palpable, and I can’t wait to join in the fun again this year.

— Chris Rehn, NextSense Chief Executive
