Sting, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are just a few of the huge names set to perform at FireAid, a benefit concert aimed at raising funds for wildfire relief efforts in the Los Angeles area. The concert, which was initially planned for a single venue, will now be held across two locations: the Intuit Dome and the nearby Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, on January 30.

The highly anticipated event will be streamed live on multiple platforms, including Apple Music, Apple TV, Netflix/Tudum, iHeartRadio, and many others. It will also be shown at select AMC Theatre locations throughout the U.S., giving fans across the country the opportunity to watch and support the cause.

The proceeds from the event will be directed toward helping those affected by the wildfires, with all funds raised going to the event’s designated beneficiaries. According to a press release, these contributions will be used for immediate relief efforts and long-term projects aimed at preventing future fire disasters. The Annenberg Foundation will guide the distribution of these funds to ensure that the help reaches those who need it the most.

The star-studded lineup for the FireAid concert includes legendary musicians like Joni Mitchell, Katy Perry, Lil Baby, Pink, Rod Stewart, Gwen Stefani, Green Day, and Stevie Nicks. Other notable performers include Jelly Roll, Gracie Abrams, Stephen Stills, Tate McRae, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Additionally, Dave Matthews and John Mayer will be performing together for the first time ever, adding extra excitement for fans.

The event is being organized by Shelli, Irving, and the Azoff family, in partnership with Live Nation and AEG Presents. Tickets for the event will go on sale Wednesday at 12 p.m. PDT through Ticketmaster, allowing fans to secure their spots at the concert or in the online streaming experience.

Since the devastating wildfires began, many celebrities and organizations in the entertainment industry have stepped up to offer support. Beyoncé, for instance, has pledged $2.5 million to the newly launched LA Fire Relief Fund through her BeyGOOD foundation. Additionally, the Recording Academy and MusiCares have donated $2 million in emergency aid to those displaced by the fires.

The FireAid benefit concert is just one of many efforts aimed at providing relief for those affected by the fires. Though the event is focused on immediate assistance, the long-term goal is to create lasting change and prevent future tragedies.

This concert also coincides with the 67th annual Grammy Awards, which will still take place on February 2 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. However, the Recording Academy has shifted its focus toward supporting relief efforts for those impacted by the wildfires, ensuring that the awards event helps raise awareness and funds for the ongoing crisis.
