This past Saturday was quite the night to remember in the world of music. 12 million people from around the world gathered online to watch David Guetta hit the decks. 8,000 people came together on their balconies as music filled the air at the Icon Brickell in Downtown Miami. The goal was to raise money in relief of COVID-19, and boy did he raise some good money. As he pledged to match every dollar that was donated, Guetta was able to raise a total of $700,000 USD. Donations are still being received.

 

I’m still buzzing from what was an incredible night shared with many. Thank you to everyone who joined and to those who were able to donate. Although this is a very unusual time, it was magical to connect with you all through music last night. Most importantly, we’ve raised money that will help those who need it most’.
-David Guetta

 

This incredible amount of money will be going to the World Health Organization, Feeding South Florida, Feeding America, and the French Hopitaux de Paris. As David Guetta proved to be the main act, he wasn’t alone in spreading the love. During an exclusive Zoom call, a group of lucky fans were able to join in on some surprise guest appearances. Artists like Bob Sinclair, Martin Solveig, Cut Killer, and Oliver Heldens all showed themselves in the video. 

If you sadly missed the event, you can watch it on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, Twitter, and Twitch.
