Baltimore hardcore band Turnstile will play a benefit concert at the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, October 24, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. Eastern. Organized in partnership with the charity Human Concern International, the show will raise money for humanitarian relief in Palestine, Sudan, and Lebanon.
The show
Admission is free, making this a free concert for everyone who attends. Fans are encouraged to donate, with organizers aiming to raise $100,000 through LaunchGood, and supporters can RSVP online ahead of time. The event was announced in early October 2026 and is billed as the final date of the band's "Never Enough Tour Pt. 2."
The cause
Donations will go toward food, water, medical care, and shelter for families affected by crises in the three countries. Hassan Wadi, the global director of Human Concern International, who is from Gaza, said he is proud of the band and the community coming together to support people in Gaza, Lebanon, and Sudan.
A band on a roll
The concert caps a standout year for Turnstile. The group made its Saturday Night Live debut on October 3 — the first hardcore band to appear on the show in more than four decades — and earlier this year won two Grammys for the album "Never Enough": Best Rock Album and Best Metal Performance for "Birds." A remix companion, "Never Enough: Versions," was released in September. The band also has a tradition of free performances: a free park show in Baltimore in 2025 drew roughly 10,000 people.
Stay tuned for more music news as the concert date approaches.
