Adopt The Arts Sound And Vision Concert Film Screenings And Record Release Celebration Rescheduled To November 22

Adopt the Arts Foundation’s Sound & Vision Live Record Release Celebration and Concert Film Screenings have a new date.

Originally set for 13th September 2026, the event will now take place on Sunday 22nd November 2026 at the historic Plaza Theatre in Palm Springs, California.

All tickets bought and seats reserved for the original September date will be honoured on 22nd November, so fans who already have tickets do not need to do anything.

The event follows the sold-out Sound & Vision Awards benefit concert held at the Plaza Theatre on 2nd March 2026, and brings music, film and music education together once again in support of the foundation’s work.

At the centre of the day is the feature-length Sound & Vision Awards Concert Film. It captures the performances from the night honouring Rock & Roll Hall of Fame legends Paul Rodgers, of Free and Bad Company, and Geezer Butler, of Black Sabbath, with collaborations from a host of well-known rock musicians.

Both honourees are giants of British rock. Rodgers is the voice behind classics such as Free’s “All Right Now” and Bad Company’s “Can’t Get Enough”, and later fronted The Firm and toured with Queen. Butler co-founded Black Sabbath in Birmingham and, as the band’s bassist and main lyricist, helped shape the sound of heavy metal itself.

According to the event poster, the all-star band led by Matt Sorum of Guns N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver featured Lzzy Hale, Corey Taylor, Nuno Bettencourt, Glenn Hughes, Steve Stevens, Robert DeLeo, Charlie Starr, Mike Mangan, Phil X, Paul III and Stevie Salas.

Alongside the concert itself, the film includes exclusive rehearsal footage, behind-the-scenes moments and commentary from Sorum, who served as Musical Director and Producer for the benefit show. It offers an inside look at how the concert came together.

For anyone who missed the sold-out benefit night in March, the screenings are a chance to see those performances on the big screen in the same venue where they happened, with the people who made it there to talk about it.

Each screening will be followed by a live Q&A with Sorum and a special guest who is yet to be announced.

The day is split into two parts. A 3pm Community Screening is a special presentation for Palm Springs Unified School District students and families, and will feature a live performance by the Changels Honor Choir. Complimentary tickets for this screening are being distributed directly through the school district.

The evening brings the 7pm Gala Screening and Record Release Celebration. VIP doors open at 5.30pm, with general admission doors opening at 6pm.

VIP tickets are priced at $150 and include a hosted cocktail reception, reserved premium seating, the film screening, the live Q&A, a choice of a commemorative Sound & Vision hat or a limited-edition event poster, first chance to buy the Plaza Theatre-exclusive vinyl edition and early access to event merchandise.

General admission tickets are $25 and include the screening, the live Q&A, access to buy the collector’s vinyl album and event merchandise, and the chance to bid on select auction items benefiting Adopt the Arts.
