Mumford & Sons donating £1 per ticket in UK tour

Mumford & Sons will donate £1 from every ticket sold during their UK tour to support grassroots music venues. This initiative is part of their partnership with the Live Trust, which provides financial support to various aspects of live music. The donation comes as the band prepares for their upcoming album ‘RUSHMERE,’ releasing on March 28. They will kick off a UK and European tour with six shows in the UK, starting in Glasgow and including stops in cities like Manchester and London. In addition to the Live Trust donation, the band will contribute another £1 from each ticket sold to the charity War Child. This organization helps young people affected by war, and the band is partnering with PLUS1 for this effort. Pre-sale tickets are available now, with general sales beginning on March 20 at 10 am local time. American singer-songwriter Sierra Ferrell will be the special guest for their UK shows. Before their UK tour, Mumford & Sons will perform several shows in the US. They are also set to headline Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Liverpool on May 25 and will have performances in Dublin and Verona later this summer.
