French DJ Bob Sinclar will be on Monday at the top of the Arc de Triomphe in Paris for an exceptional concert to raise funds for the fight against the coronavirus, organizers announced on social media on Wednesday.
"The live will start at 8:02 pm, just after the applause from the caregivers and will be broadcast live (...). We are counting on your virtual presence and your donations," said the Cercle Music platform, which produces and broadcasts concerts from electro music from unusual places.
To avoid any gathering, the organizers clarified that this performance, in collaboration with the Center des monuments nationaux "is prohibited to the public", and "neither sound nor light will be perceptible from Place de l'Étoile".
The ambition of this project is to collect funds and donate them in full to Médecins Sans Frontières, the Fondation de France and the One-O-One endowment fund, in the fight against coronavirus.
World renowned DJ Bob Sinclar has been posting mixes to his Instagram account (666,000 subscribers) since the start of the containment.
