French music icons including Pascal Obispo, Zazie, Renaud, and -M- are uniting for a major charity concert titled “SOS Solidarités incendies” at the Arkéa Arena in Bordeaux. According to organizers, the live show will broadcast in prime time on M6 at 21:10, with all ticket proceeds directed to the Fondation de France to aid victims of the devastating wildfires in the Gironde region.
According to broadcaster Julien Courbet, who helped spearhead the project alongside hosts Élodie Gossuin and Éric Jean-Jean, artists quickly answered the call to support affected residents without municipal backing. The lineup features an extensive roster of French artists, including Bénabar, Superbus, Axel Bauer, Gauvain Sers, Jeanne Mas, Julien Clerc, Natasha St-Pier, and Noé Preszow.

Tickets for the August 27 event went on sale on Ticketmaster, starting at 20 euros for children and 35 euros for adults. Demand proved immediate, with the 79-euro Gold category selling out in just two minutes, according to ticketing data. For viewers unable to secure seats in Bordeaux, M6 will facilitate direct donations throughout the evening broadcast.
Fund Distribution via Fondation de France
All funds generated from ticket sales and audience contributions will be managed and redistributed by the Fondation de France. According to ticketing notices, donors can specify whether their contributions support victims in the Southwest, the Southeast, or across all regions impacted by the recent wildfire catastrophes.
