Los Angeles became the heart of music and philanthropy as some of the industry’s biggest names took the stage for the FireAid benefit concert, raising over $60 million for wildfire relief efforts. Held across the Kia Forum and Intuit Dome, the event brought together legendary artists in solidarity with communities devastated by recent wildfires.

The night started with Stevie Nicks, who shared a deeply personal account of her evacuation experience before dedicating “Landslide” to the Santa Rosa firefighters who saved her home. Billie Eilish and Green Day set the tone for an electrifying evening, while special collaborations—like Sheila E. and Anderson .Paak’s high-energy set and a surprise Nirvana reunion featuring Joan Jett—kept the momentum going.

Lady Gaga stunned with brand-new material, Rod Stewart delivered a heartfelt “People Get Ready,” and P!nk paid tribute with a moving rendition of “Me and Bobby McGee.” Even last-minute changes, like John Mayer’s solo set following Dave Matthews’ withdrawal, didn’t dull the night’s impact.

Live-streamed globally, FireAid was more than a concert—it was a powerful statement of resilience. With all proceeds going toward rebuilding efforts, it showcased music’s ability to bring hope and healing when it’s needed most.
