With over £10,000 raised already, Festivals Unite have announced the extension of the Festivals Unite Prize Draw, with the new closing date on Monday 6th May 2024.
Partnering with international charity War Child, Festivals Unite have seen 67 of the UK’s & Europe’s most beloved festivals come together to donate a pair of tickets to the prize draw in aid of the current humanitarian crisis in Gaza. All funds raised as part of this draw will be split equally and donated to War Child and Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) which will provide vital aid to those affected.
Festivals Unite crowdfunder gives potential festival goers the opportunity to win tickets to the likes of Boomtown Fair, Love Saves The Day, All Points East, Parklife, Boardmasters, Mighty Hoopla, Wide Awake and over 60 more for a fraction of the original ticket price. The suggested donation is just £10 but there are additional options for multiple entries.
Festivals Unite say:
“We have joined forces with over 60 festivals to use our collective power in order to support and provide aid to those affected by the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The decision to initiate a prize draw reflects a shared commitment among these festivals to prioritise humanitarian concerns and lend a helping hand to those in need. We recognise the urgency of the situation in Gaza and we are determined to make a tangible difference. By pooling our resources and leveraging our platforms, we aim to raise crucial funds to support our charity partners War Child and MAP to deliver vital aid on the ground.”
