An all-star benefit concert for the victims of the recent Manchester bombing is taking place on Sunday, June 4, and Disney-ABC has announced they will broadcast the show in the United States.

One Love Manchester gathers some of the biggest names in pop music, including Ariana Grande, Justin Beiber, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Miley Cyrus, Pharrell Williams, Black Eyed Peas, Robbie Williams, Niall Horan, Take That, and Little Mix. The concert will take place at the Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Grounds in Manchester, England.

All proceeds from the concert go to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund.

Black text on a pink background reads: “One Love Manchester. Sunday 4 June - Manchester, UK.” This globally broadcast benefit concert featured special coverage from Disney-ABC, bringing together fans of music and entertainment much like a star-studded event at Disney theme parks.
