The Live Earth concert was held on 07/07/07, a date that will go down in the history books. It was a 24-hour concert, performed on 7 continents, bringing together more than 100 music artists and 2 billion people to start a global movement to solve the deadly climate crisis facing our planet today.

Live Earth reached worldwide audiences through an innovative, first of its kind media campaign, utilizing television, radio, the Internet and wireless channels. Former US Vice President Al Gore was the driving force behind this huge event, following on the heels of his much talked about documentary An Inconvenient Truth, on global warming.

Live Earth staged official concerts at Giants Stadium in New York, Wembley Stadium in London, Aussie Stadium in Sydney, Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, the Coca Cola Dome in Johannesburg, Makuhari Messe in Tokyo, the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai and HSH Nordbank Area in Hamburg.
