Claptone Partners with No Kid Hungry and TILT for TILT Cares Holiday Ball

The music scene is gearing up for a night of unparalleled excitement as TILT Cares announces the TILT Cares Holiday Ball, set to take place at the iconic Brooklyn Navy Yard on December 2, 2023. Headlined by the illustrious Claptone and featuring some surprise friends soon to be announced, this one-night-only event promises not just a fantastic musical experience but also a chance to make a difference.

Beyond the beats and melodies, the TILT Cares Holiday Ball has a noble cause at its core. All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to No Kid Hungry, an organization committed to ending childhood hunger in the United States.

Inspiration for the Show

“Well, honestly the inspiration for this show came about when I was reading the other day that 9 million children in the US are thought to come from homes that can’t feed their whole family, healthily. It saddened me to hear this and I felt like we had to do something! I racked my brain a bit, called some friends and pitched us all coming together to do something in the way we know how: through music,” said Claptone. “To ensure we make the impact we want, in time for the coldest part of the year, when things are toughest for families, all of my guests and I will play for free - absolutely nothing - and are asking TILT - the promoter of the show - to donate what would have been our fees as well as a percentage of ticket sales to No Kids Hungry. This is about us coming together and doing something for kids this season because no child deserves to go hungry.”
