**MusiCares Person of the Year Grammy Event Honoring the Grateful Dead Still Set for Jan. 31**
Despite concerns over a recent wildfire in Los Angeles, the 2023 MusiCares Person of the Year event honoring the Grateful Dead remains scheduled to take place on January 31.
The charity gala and tribute concert was initially announced with the iconic rock band as its honoree back in October. However, the event’s organizers were forced to reassess plans due to the ongoing LA wildfires that have been impacting the area.
After careful consideration and consultation with local authorities, it has been confirmed that the event will proceed as planned at the Beverly Hilton hotel in Los Angeles.
The 2023 MusiCares Person of the Year tribute is set to celebrate the Grateful Dead’s remarkable legacy and philanthropic contributions. The evening promises an unforgettable night of music and inspiration, with a star-studded lineup of performers paying homage to the band’s enduring impact on the music industry.
Proceeds from the event will support the invaluable work of MusiCares, a leading organization dedicated to providing financial assistance, addiction recovery services, and other vital resources to musicians in need.
While concerns about public safety continue to be paramount, event organizers have assured that all necessary precautions are being taken to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for attendees.
