One Love Manchester was a benefit concert and British television special on 4 June 2017, organised by American singer Ariana Grande, Simon Moran, Melvin Benn, and Scooter Braun, in response to the bombing after Grande's concert at Manchester Arena two weeks earlier.[6][7][8] It took place at Old Trafford Cricket Ground,[9] and was attended by 55,000 people. Guest stars included Justin Bieber, the Black Eyed Peas,[10] Coldplay,[9] Miley Cyrus, Mac Miller, Marcus Mumford, Niall Horan, Little Mix,[6] Katy Perry, Take That, Imogen Heap, Victoria Monét, Pharrell Williams, Robbie Williams, U2 and Liam Gallagher.[6][7][11]
Proceeds from the event went to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund established by Manchester City Council and the British Red Cross to help the victims and their families.[11][12] The British Red Cross received more than £10 million in donations in the 12 hours following the concert.[13] Networks from at least 50 countries broadcast the concert live,[14] which was simultaneously streamed live on various platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.[15] New York's Vulture.com ranked the event as the No. 1 concert of 2017.[16]
