This event aims to support the boycott of Eurovision due to Israel’s participation and show solidarity with Palestine. All funds raised during the event through ticket sales and online donations will go to human rights, advocacy and aid organisations in Palestine: UNWRA, Psychosocial Counselling Centre for Women (PSCCW), Al Haq and Al Mezan and direct support to artists in Gaza. All performers and crew are volunteering their time.
