    CHARLOTTE ( QUEEN CITY NEWS ) — The “Concert for Carolina” at Bank of America Stadium will be live-streamed for free for those impacted by Hurricane Helene, Tepper Sports & Entertainment announced on Tuesday.

    Tickets are sold out and the demand was so high that the headliners of the concert- Luke Combs, Eric Church, Billy Strings, and James Taylor- have partnered with Veeps to livestream the Oct. 26 concert.

    Geotargeting technology is being used to ensure that those in affected areas will not be charged. The link will be available worldwide but those not directly impacted pay $24.99.

    All proceeds from the stream will go to the same organizations that Combs and Church selected for ticket sales to benefit: Samaritan’s Purse , Manna Food Bank , Second Harvest Food Bank of Northwest NC , Eblen Charities , and the organizations supported by Chief Cares .

    Since the initial concert announcement, other big-time stars have joined the lineup including Sheryl Crow, Kieth Urban, and Bailey Zimmerman. On top of that, officials say North Carolina natives The Avett Brothers, Scotty McCreery, Chase Rice, and Parmalee will also be performing.

    The event will be hosted by ESPN’s Marty Smith and Barstool Sports’ Caleb Pressley. For access to the live stream, click here .
