A charity concert titled "Songs of Freedom" will take place in Manchester on February 3, 2027, in support of Ukraine. The event has already been compared to live aid, the Telegraph reports.
Bob Geldof, Madness, The Doobie Brothers, Chrissy Hynde and other musicians are scheduled to perform at the Co-op Live arena. The concert aims to draw attention to the humanitarian consequences of Russia's war against Ukraine and raise funds to support the Ukrainian people.
Paul McCartney, Barbra Streisand, actor Sean Penn and the Ukrainian band Okin Elzy will take part in the initiative from a distance.
