FireAid Concert Streaming Extended for One Year with Donations Matched

The benefit concert, which raised $100 million for LA wildfire relief, will remain available on major platforms as fundraising continues.

  • FireAid, a benefit concert held on January 30, 2025, raised over $100 million to support Los Angeles wildfire victims, with funds going toward immediate relief and long-term recovery efforts.
  • The event featured performances from over 30 artists, including Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, Green Day, and Stevie Nicks, across two LA venues: the Intuit Dome and Kia Forum.
  • Streaming access to the concert has been extended for a year on platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, YouTube, and others, allowing continued donations via FireAidLA.org.
  • Billionaire Steve Ballmer and his wife Connie will match all donations made through streaming, effectively doubling contributions to the cause.
  • The FireAid Grants Advisory Committee, led by the Annenberg Foundation, is set to distribute the first phase of grants by mid-February, focusing on community needs and lessons from past fire disasters.
