The event, which takes place this month, will include performances from the likes of Californian funk-rockers Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bay Side punk trio Green Day, Fleetwood Mac legend Stevie Nicks and British crooner Rod Stewart.

The organisation wrote in an invitation on their website: "Join us for an evening of music and solidarity. The FireAid benefit concert will be held at Intuit Dome and Kia Forum on January 30th dedicated to rebuilding communities that have been devastated by wildfires. Contributions made to FireAid in connection with the FireAid benefit concert and other direct donations will be distributed under the advisement of the Annenberg Foundation and will be distributed for short-term relief efforts and long-term initiatives to prevent future fire disasters throughout Southern California. The Annenberg Foundation, with decades of philanthropic leadership in our community, including rapid response, will help coordinate a team to direct funds for the greatest impact."
