Classic Pop Presents - Queen - 40 YEAR LIVE AID SPECIAL Madonna George Michael

Marking 40 years since the biggest live event in music history, Classic Pop revisits the day the world came together for a global cause. This in-depth special edition celebrates the unforgettable moments, legendary performances, and enduring legacy of Live Aid.

Relive Queen’s iconic set at Wembley Stadium, with Freddie Mercury commanding the stage in his now-legendary white vest and jeans. Revisit show-stopping appearances from megastars including David Bowie, Madonna, George Michael, Elton John, Mick Jagger, Tina Turner, Duran Duran, and INXS. Watched by an estimated 1.9 billion people worldwide, Live Aid became a cultural landmark like no other.

Inside, we recount the day’s timeline, highlight standout and controversial performances, and speak to many of the artists who took part. We also sit down with official Live Aid photographer Denis O’Regan, who shares rare, behind-the-scenes images from the event. Plus, we explore the US concert, the rest of the global broadcasts, and those who were notably absent – all while reflecting on the legacy Live Aid continues to carry today.

Available from 26 June 2025. Pre-orders will be shipped shortly after release.
