The Shaquille O’Neal Foundation has announced that multiple Grammy award-winning artists Maroon 5, CMA’s 2020 Female Artist of the Year Maren Morris, and Emmy award-winning comedian John Mulaney will headline “The Event,” its second annual fundraising gala to be held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on October 1.
“The Event” serves as the primary fundraiser for The Shaquille O’Neal Foundation, which focuses on serving children in Las Vegas and Atlanta.
“Last year’s Event was a lifetime highlight for me, which is saying something,” Shaquille O’Neal said. “We set the bar high but we’re looking forward to an even bigger night this year: more guests, more acts, more passion for positive change. Not only do we have some of the best names in music again, but we’re also adding comedy.”
“I’m especially proud of how accessible The Event is, with concert tickets starting at just $50. The evening is about people — from everyday fans to sports and entertainment stars to corporate CEOs — coming together to make a difference in kids’ lives,” he added.
Concert tickets ranging from $50 to $250 are available to the public via AXS.com.
The evening will also include a private cocktail reception, dinner, and live auction followed by the public performance. Table sponsorships for the private event range from $10,000 to $75,000. Additional details about “The Event” and ticket/table options can be found at shaqfoundation.org.
