Together For Palestine have expanded the line-up for their OVO Arena Wembley event on 17th September 2025, billed by organisers as the UK’s largest-ever fundraising concert for Gaza. Tickets are sold out, with supporters encouraged to donate to the Together For Palestine Fund; merchandise is also available.
New additions include Amelia Dimoldenberg, Benedict Cumberbatch, Bilal Hasna, Celeste, Charithra Chandran, El Far3i, Elyanna, Guy Pearce, Jameela Jamil, Leigh-Anne, Louis Theroux, Nadine Shah, Ramy Youssef, Saint Levant and Stephen Kapos.
They join a bill featuring Bastille, Brian Eno, Cat Burns, Damon Albarn, Greentea Peng, Hot Chip, James Blake, Jamie xx, King Krule, Mabel, Obongjayar, Paloma Faith, Rachel Chinouriri and Sampha, alongside Palestinian artists Faraj Suleiman and Nai Barghouti, with special appearances from PinkPantheress, Rina Sawayama and Riz Ahmed.
Portishead have recorded a special one-off performance of their song ‘Roads’ with a string quartet, to be aired during the evening as they are unable to attend in person. The band said, “We are incredibly honoured to stand in solidarity with Palestine and be part of this crucial event. The genocide must stop.”
Guy Pearce said, “I feel utterly heartbroken every day witnessing the atrocities inflicted upon the innocent people of Palestine. It’s hard not to feel helpless. Being part of this concert will enable me to share my heart with others who also see the injustice in these horrific crimes. More importantly it enables me to show my support for and to the people of Gaza, and all those subjected to this brutal genocide. Hopefully this concert encourages more people to stand up and speak out.”
El Far3i said, “I chose London as the home for my music projects in 2014, a city where global solidarity with Palestine meets a historical responsibility for its occupation. Eleven years later, as a genocide is being committed against my people, contributing to this pivotal event feels like the least I can do – and exactly where I need to be.”
Jameela Jamil added, “Together For Palestine will be a moment in history that we look back on and say we stood on the side of humanity, and I am honoured to be involved. It will be a night of music and hope, standing together with the Palestinian people. Working with Choose Love means the world to me and all the money raised will go to Palestinian-led partners providing life-saving support and humanitarian aid.”
All proceeds from the event will go to the Together For Palestine Fund via Choose Love (charity number 1177927). Funds will be distributed to Palestinian-led organisations including Taawon, Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF) and Palestinian Medical Relief Society (PMRS).
