A star-studded lineup of musicians is set to perform at FireAid, a benefit concert aimed at raising funds for wildfire relief efforts in the Los Angeles area. Scheduled for January 30, this event will take place across two venues: the Intuit Dome and the adjacent Kia Forum in Inglewood, California. The concert will be broadcast live on various platforms including Apple Music, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and YouTube, among others. Contributions from the event will support both immediate aid and long-term initiatives to prevent future fire disasters, guided by the Annenberg Foundation. Notable performers include Sting, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, and many more.

The organizers of FireAid have announced that the event will now span two venues to accommodate a larger audience. Initially planned for the Intuit Dome, the addition of the Kia Forum ensures more people can witness the performances. This decision underscores the magnitude of the cause and the community's response to the wildfires that have ravaged the region. Among the artists confirmed are Joni Mitchell, Katy Perry, Lil Baby, Pink, Rod Stewart, Gwen Stefani, Green Day, Stevie Nicks, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Dave Matthews and John Mayer will also make their first live performance together at this event. Additional acts like Olivia Rodrigo, Alanis Morissette, Anderson .Paak, Dawes, Graham Nash, John Fogerty, Stevie Wonder, and the Black Crowes have joined the lineup, further enhancing the concert's appeal.

FireAid aims to provide crucial support to those affected by the wildfires through financial contributions and awareness. The proceeds will go directly to designated beneficiaries, ensuring that the funds reach those who need them most. Celebrities and entertainment organizations have already pledged millions to assist those displaced or who have lost their homes. Beyoncé has contributed $2.5 million to a newly established LA Fire Relief Fund, while the Recording Academy and MusiCares have launched a relief effort with an initial donation of $1 million, which has since grown to $2 million in emergency aid. These contributions highlight the collective effort within the music industry to address the crisis.

The 67th annual Grammy Awards, scheduled for February 2, will also focus on supporting relief efforts following the devastating wildfires. Despite the challenges, the event will proceed as planned at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, with a renewed emphasis on aiding those affected. Through these combined efforts, the music community is demonstrating its commitment to helping rebuild and protect the Los Angeles area from future disasters. The ticket sales for FireAid begin on Wednesday via Ticketmaster, with more details about the venue lineups to be announced soon. This concert promises to be a significant milestone in the ongoing support for wildfire victims and prevention initiatives.
