Live Aid: 25 Years ago

Live Aid, the multi-venue charity concert, was held on July 13, 1985. It came on the heels of the charity songs "Do They Know It's Christmas", and "We Are The World". The event was organized by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise funds for famine relief in Ethiopia, and was held in Wembley Stadium in London, England (attended by 72,000 people) and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia (attended by about 99,000 people).
