Ariana Grande has announced a huge benefit concert to be held in Manchester this weekend, which will raise money for the families and victims affected by the tragic recent terror attack.
After the May 22nd suicide bombing at Manchester Arena that left 22 people dead and 59 people wounded, Grande suspended her tour through June 5th.
Now, Ariana Grande has planned a special benefit concert on June 4th at the Emirates Old Trafford Cricket Ground. The “One Love Manchester” show will feature performances from Justin Bieber, Coldplay, Niall Horan, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Pharrell Williams, Usher, and more.

Fans who attended the Manchester Arena show will receive free tickets to the concert. General tickets go on sale June 1st at 10am here.
Last week, Grande said in a statement on Twitter, “My heart, prayers and condolences are with the victims of the Manchester Attack and their loved ones. There is nothing I or anyone can do to take away the pain you are feeling or to make this better.” She continued, “Music is meant to heal us, to bring us together, to make us happy. So that is what it will continue to do for us. We will continue to honour the ones we lost, their loved ones, my fans and all affected by this tragedy.” Read the full statement below:
