Mika’s “I Love Beirut” Concert Raises More Than $241,000 For Victims Of Beirut Blast
A very special tribute to Beirut, indeed!
Lebanese-born singer Mika hosted a live-streamed show on Saturday raising more than $241,000 for the victims of the devastating Beirut blast.
Titled “I ❤️ Beirut,” the 2 hour long concert featured a live performance by the artist and was broadcast on YouTube.
Beautiful additions to the concert included the participation of the beloved Lebanese band Mashrou ‘Leila, singer Kylie Minogue, and movie star Salma Hayek among other stars.
With a message of hope and optimism, Mika performed all his hits including favorites like Grace Kelly and Relax.
Donations from the concert tickets were dedicated to “humanitarian assistance to those affected” by the Beirut explosion, and will be distributed by the Lebanese Red Cross and Save the Children in Lebanon.
What better way to support a cause than with some good music?

The effort & creativity #Mika of what he called it #ILoveBeirut Concert need to be spot on. The initiative he put together for over the past 2 weeks is one of the most overwhelming and heartwarming campaigns in support of the people after the #BeirutExplosion @mikasounds pic.twitter.com/HAoEKZzGsK
