Additional artists will be revealed in the upcoming weeks.
Scheduled for Thursday, January 30, at Inglewood’s Intuit Dome and Kia Forum, FireAid aims to raise essential funds for relief efforts. The concert will be streamed across various platforms and will also be available for viewing in select AMC theaters.

In the wake of the wildfires that erupted last week in the Los Angeles area, support from the music community has been overwhelming. Notably, significant contributions have been made, including a $2.5 million donation from Beyoncé’s BeyGood Foundation for relief initiatives, and a $1 million fund designated by the Recording Academy and MusiCares to assist musicians and industry professionals impacted by the disaster.
