This event is more than a concert — it’s a gathering for mental health awareness and community impact. Through Aethos Hotels’ commitment, 50% of bar donations directly support Iguality’s mission to provide free mental health care and community programs for those most at risk of exclusion. Together, the crowd raises €700 in one night, proving how joy, music, and generosity can create real change.
