Stream FireAid in Germany
By the way, there is good news for music fans who can’t make it to Los Angeles: According to reports, the shows will also be streamed live in this country on the night of January 30th to 31st from 3 a.m. on various platforms, including Apple Music and Netflix , Prime Video, YouTube, Spotify. The show can also be seen in select AMC theaters in the United States.
Tickets go on sale on January 22nd via Ticketmaster – and with this line-up, they’re likely to sell out quickly. Proceeds will go directly to organizations helping those affected by the California wildfires. The fires in the Los Angeles area are now described as one of the largest and costliest natural disasters in California history. Thousands of people are homeless and some have lost everything – and not everyone can hope to receive payments from insurance. Clean-up work has already begun in the region, but given the extent of the fire, this will probably take months.
