On March 20th, a large peace rally with numerous music stars will take place in Berlin. Sat.1 and ProSieben will be broadcast live.
“End the war!” Under this motto, a large peace rally of the “Sound of Peace” initiative will take place on March 20 in Berlin. Well-known artists will perform on a stage as part of the event. ProSieben and Sat.1 will broadcast live from noon to evening under the title “Sound of Peace: The Great Peace Event in front of the Brandenburg Gate”.
Peter Maffay and many other stars
Among the acts that will appear on Sunday is Peter Maffay (72). Also announced are appearances by Silbermond, Zoe Wees (19), Michael Patrick Kelly (44), Revolverheld, Gentleman (46) and Antje Schomaker (30). More artists are yet to be announced. Numerous speakers are also expected.
“Now, more urgently than ever, we need an international sign of hope and solidarity,” it says, among other things, on the homepage of the solidarity alliance “Sound of Peace”. Together they want to set “a strong and conspicuous symbol for peace, human rights and democracy” – especially to support the people of Ukraine. Donations will also be collected for this.
“It’s much easier for us to give peace a loud voice than it is for many people in the world – especially in Russia,” explains ProSieben and Sat.1 broadcaster Daniel Rosemann (41) in a statement. “We have to use our freedom to keep showing our solidarity and support for the people of Ukraine. […] Together we send an unmistakable signal: against war. For the peace.”
