ALL PROCEEDS TO BENEFIT LTDF’S MISSION TO MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE FOR TERMINALLY ILL MUSIC FANS
STAR-STUDDED EVENT TO FEATURE MUSICIANS, WRESTLERS, CELEBRITIES, AND MORE THROUGHOUT THE DAY
PIERCE THE VEIL’S VIC FUENTES TO CO-HOST
Living The Dream Foundation, known for making dreams come true for terminally ill music fans at all of your favorite festivals, has teamed up with Space Zebra co-founder Bobby Schubenski (also of Blackcraft Cult) to celebrate his birthday with an all-day event streamed live on the DWPresents Twitch feed from The Musician’s Institute. All proceeds from the stream will benefit Living The Dream Foundation.
The event runs from 10am to 7pm PT and is powered by DWP, which is crucial to the impactful work that LTDF does in connecting artists with their fans, and will be co-hosted by Living The Dream Foundation CEO and Pierce the Veil frontman Vic Fuentes. Fans can expect special guest appearances by musicians, artists, sports figures, and various other celebrities, as well as some live performances, and even a battle of the bands. The latter will serve as the August finals for the DWP Battle for the Big Stage competition. Two bands will go head-to-head to win the chat vote, which will determine who advances to the championship round in October. These bands are battling for a main stage spot at Welcome To Rockville in November.
Confirmed participants thus far include: M. Shadows (Avenged Sevenfold), Brandon Saller (Atreyu), DED, Pierce the Veil, Ray Luzier (Korn), Kellin Quinn + Nick Martin (Sleeping With Sirens), Tyler Connolly (Theory Of A Deadman), Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach), DJ Paul (three 6 Mafia), Mark Holcomb (Periphery), Maria Brink (In This Moment), Adam Elmakias (photographer), Jeremy Saffer (photographer), Bayle (WWE), Malaki Black (AEW), Ryan Ashley (Ink Master Tattoos), Dennis Rodman, Mike Williams (Los Angeles Charges), Chanel West Coast (MTV’s Ridiculousness), Jose Mangin (Sirius XM), Emo Night, and more to be announced.
In addition, Living The Dream Foundation is thrilled to announce that they will resume doing in-person Dream Days at ALL Danny Wimmer Presents festivals such as Inkarceration, Louder Than Life, Aftershock, and Welcome to Rockville this fall.
