Guide to Watching the FireAid Charity Concert on Netflix, Apple TV Plus, Prime Video, Max, and Other Platforms.

The world's major streaming platforms will broadcast a large charity concert to help the victims of the wildfires in Los Angeles.

The big FireAid concert, scheduled for January 30, aims to raise funds for the victims of wildfires in Los Angeles and will be available across multiple platforms. Although contracts have not yet been signed, the organizers have been in talks with major streaming services such as Netflix, Prime Video, Walt Disney, Paramount, and Comcast to broadcast the event live. Interestingly, while Netflix will be part of the broadcast, it will do so through its YouTube channel, indicating that the event will be accessible to a wide audience.

The date and time of the show are set for Thursday, January 30. Viewers in the United States will be able to watch the event on platforms such as Apple Music, Apple TV, Max, iHeartRadio, KTLA Plus, Paramount Plus, Amazon Music on Twitch, SiriusXM, Spotify, Soundcloud, Veeps, and of course, YouTube. The broadcast is expected to be free, focusing on encouraging viewer donations rather than charging for tickets.

Despite the short time frame, organizers Irving Azoff and Steve Ballmer have managed to assemble a notable lineup of artists. Some of the confirmed names so far include Billie Eilish, P!nk, Stevie Nicks, Lady Gaga, Lil Baby, Green Day, and many more. There are speculations that there will also be surprises with some big rock bands.

One advantage of live streaming is that it is not limited by the programming schedules of traditional television networks, allowing for greater flexibility in reaching more viewers. Although specific details regarding streaming availability in the UK and Australia have not yet been provided, it is likely that mechanisms will be established for these audiences to also participate and contribute to the cause.
