The Crew Nation Fund was launched in April to help support touring and venue crews through this temporary intermission while COVID-19 puts concerts on pause. Live Nation has committed $10 million to Crew Nation, contributing an initial $5 million to the fund and then matching the next $5 million in donations, dollar for dollar. Artists from around the world have already supported this initiative with donations and activations from performers including John Mayer, U2, Metallica, Coldplay, Cher, Justin Timberlake, Aerosmith, Anderson.Paak, Twenty One Pilots, Backstreet Boys and more.
