Musical April to Raise Funds for Christchurch Terror Attack Victims

New Zealand will be hit by a musical April, in Auckland and Christchurch to raise funds for the victims of the Christchurch terror attacks.

The You Are Us (Aroha Nui) concerts will feature Six60, StanWalker, Fat Freddy's Drop, Dave Dobbyn and Anika Moa. It will be hosted by Mike King.

Lianne Dalziel, the Christchurch Mayor said the response for the concerts has been magnificent. She said the impact on their Muslim communities has been huge and they are going to need ongoing support for a very long time. "We are all grateful for the significance of this contribution to the Muslim community's long term recovery."

The proceeds from the tickets will go to the 'Our People, Our City' fund. It has been specifically set up to help the people affected by the March 15 terror attacks on the two mosques which left 50 dead and 50 more injured.

The concerts will take place at Auckland's Spark Arena on April 13 and Christchurch Stadium on April 17.
