More than 20 artists, including Jamie xx, Damon Albarn, PinkPantheress, among others are set to perform at Together For Palestine, billed as the UK’s largest-ever fundraising concert for Gaza.
The event, hosted by executive producer Brian Eno, will feature an evening of music, reflection, and hope, with 100% of ticket sales donated to Choose Love. Funds will be directed to Palestinian-led organisations providing humanitarian aid.
The lineup features Adnan Joubran, Brian Eno, Damon Albarn, Faraj Suleiman, Greentea Peng, Hot Chip, James Blake, Jamie xx, King Krule, Mabel, Nai Barghouti, Obongjayar, Paloma Faith, Rachel Chinouriri, Sampha, Bastille, and Cat Burns. Special appearances include Rina Sawayama, Riz Ahmed, PinkPantheress, and more to be announced. Some performers are expected to present unique collaborations, while others will debut material created especially for the fundraiser.
“In the face of the horrors of Gaza silence becomes complicity. Artists have always helped societies to point out injustice and imagine better futures,” says Brian Eno. “That’s why this concert matters. It’s time for us to come together — not just to raise our voices, but to reaffirm our shared humanity.”
The concert’s visuals will be curated by theatre director Amir Nizar Zuabi, promising moments of reflection and hope. Damon Albarn adds: “I, like everyone with a heart, have felt despair and helplessness at the reports coming out of Gaza and the West Bank… I am grateful for this opportunity to act in solidarity with the Palestinian people and also celebrate the music and culture from the region.”
