Live Aid was an unprecedented global music event that brought 1.5 billion people together, and they all have a story to tell about ‘the day rock ‘n’ roll changed the world’. 

Just For One Day – The Live Aid Musical finished its run in London on Saturday 7 February 2026. The West End production opened in May 2025 following a successful North American run at CAA Ed Mirvish Theatre in Toronto and a record-breaking world premiere at London’s The Old Vic theatre where it became the theatre’s fastest selling musical ever. Celebrating the iconic Live Aid concerts in London and Philadelphia, Just For One Day – The Live Aid Musical will continue to support the work of The Band Aid Charitable Trust with £1.6million raised to date. 

Just For One Day – The Live Aid Musical is written by  John O’Farrell and directed by Luke Sheppard, with musical supervision, arrangements and orchestration by Matthew Brind, choreography by Ebony Molina and casting by Stuart Burt CDG.
