PUBLIC CONCERTS

World Concert Day was a day for public concerts and events to donate part of ticket sales to charity and promote a chosen cause. With the Covid-19 Global Pandemic it has become a live streaming lockdown event. Many large public concerts already planned for 26 April 2021 - BTS, Harry Styles, Celine Dion, Jeff Beck, Nick Mason, Bryan Adams, The Liverpool Philharmonic  - have been cancelled because of the Pandemic and the event will be virtual and online again in 2021. We invite ALL artists, producers and promoters to join the event and stream a message or performance online on 26 April.
