FireAid is set for January 30th in Los Angeles
Intuit Dome will host a benefit concert dedicated to rebuilding communities devastated by wildfires and supporting efforts to prevent future fire disasters throughout Southern California. FireAid, an evening of music and solidarity, will take place on Thursday, January 30th, with performers and ticket information announcements scheduled for the coming days.
Proceeds from the concert will go towards a 501(c)(3) created for this event to focus on rebuilding infrastructure, supporting displaced families, and advancing fire prevention technologies and strategies to ensure LA is better prepared for fire emergencies. This special event is produced by Shelli, Irving, and the Azoff family, in conjunction with Live Nation and AEG Presents.
Tens of thousands of acres have burned throughout the Los Angeles area since Tuesday (Jan 7th) after hurricane-force winds blew through the area, causing multiple fires. The Palisades Fire has been named the most destructive wildfire in LA history with over 20 thousand acres burned and only six percent contained, as of this writing.
Over five thousand structures have been lost, including celebrity homes and businesses. Damage is estimated to be in the tens of billions of dollars.
