FireAid—a benefit concert for victims of the Los Angeles wildfires featuring Lady Gaga, Olivia Rodrigo, Billie Eilish, Jelly Roll, Pink, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder and several other hit musical acts—is this week.

The FireAid concert is being produced by legendary music producer Irving Azoff, his wife, Shelli Azoff, and the Azoff family to raise funds in the wake of the devastation caused by the Southern California wildfires that began in the Los Angeles area on Jan. 7.
