On February 28, Swedish House Mafia will throw a black tie charity rave at Hammerstein Ballroom for victims of Hurricane Sandy. Tickets for the once in a lifetime event will be auctioned off on Ticketmaster starting December 14 at 10 AM EST. 100% of the proceeds from the show will be donated to the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City and the Hurricane Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund in support of hurricane relief efforts. These funds take no administrative fees with all of the money going back to the victims.
Swedish House Mafia via press release,
“New York City has been a massive part of our journey and there was no better way to say thank you than to help out along with so many other worthwhile events. We had the night off in NYC before our Madison Square Garden gig…and what better way to spend it!”
Cheers to the Swedes on this move. It’s unexpected, classy and shows the power of EDM.
