TL;DR

Diplo, Dillon Francis, and DJ Pauly D will perform at LA's Academy Nightclub on September 23 to mark the 100th event organized by FCancer, a nonprofit focused on cancer prevention and early detection. The benefit concert caps the charity's 'Road to 100' campaign and will directly fund screening programs and health education initiatives.

“Every event we host helps fund prevention programs, expand access to lifesaving screenings and education, and build a community that reminds people they never have to face cancer alone”

FCancer has tapped Diplo, Dillon Francis, and DJ Pauly D for a benefit concert at Academy Nightclub in West Hollywood on September 23. The show marks the nonprofit's 100th event and closes out its 'Road to 100' campaign, a milestone celebrating a decade of cancer prevention work.

A Decade of Nightlife-Driven Health Advocacy

Since its launch, FCancer has drawn more than 55,000 attendees globally by pairing electronic music performances with health outreach. The organization has raised over $2 million through live events, auctions, and fundraising campaigns, with past support from Martin Garrix, Tiësto, The Chainsmokers, Hardwell, and Porter Robinson, who have donated experiences, merchandise, and VIP packages.

The nonprofit has facilitated 60,000 general cancer screenings, 35,000 HPV vaccines, and 10,000 breast cancer screenings to date. Every ticket sold for the September event directly funds these programs and supports community networks for young adults affected by cancer.

Building Momentum for the Next Chapter

Co-founder Julie Greenbaum framed the 100th event as both a celebration and a launchpad. "This milestone isn't just about honoring how far we've come. It's about accelerating where we're going," she said. "Every event we host helps fund prevention programs, expand access to lifesaving screenings and education, and build a community that reminds people they never have to face cancer alone."

Tickets for the September 23 show are on sale now.
