A group of artists come together to announce Night for Ukraine, a fundraising event at Roundhouse on Wednesday 9 March 2022. Funds raised on the evening will be donated to the DEC, Disasters Emergency Committee, to support humanitarian and emergency response work in Ukraine and neighbouring countries. Tickets are on sale now and are available HERE.
Night for Ukraine is delighted to announce that Ukrainian born Bloom Twins will be helping to curate the event and performing on the evening. The night will feature live music from international artists, spoken word poetry, film, and DJ sets. A full event line up will be announced in due course.
The project is organised by the founder of Secret Cinema, main collaborators Bloom Twins and Sunflower Relief, alongside Phoenix Court, The Roundhouse, Sofar Sounds, Platoon, and Lost, with further collaborators to be announced shortly.
Funds raised on the evening will be donated to DEC, Night for Ukraine’s fundraising partner, as part of a culture sector-wide and nationwide effort. The DEC brings together 15 of the UK’s leading aid charities. DEC charities and their local partners are working on the ground in Ukraine and at its borders, to help people fleeing the conflict.
Night for Ukraine is also encouraging other artists, organisers and venues to stage their own night across the nation to support DEC. Further information can be found HERE.
One of Night for Ukraine’s event partners is newly created grassroots organisation Sunflower Relief, which provides vital on-the-ground support, services with local language capabilities to Ukrainians fleeing the conflict areas or those who are staying and need resources and humanitarian aid.
