Rodrigo's Daisy Chain Festival Raises $20M for Women's Groups

Olivia Rodrigo's inaugural Daisy Chain Fields festival raised $20 million for women's and girls' organizations after philanthropist Melinda French Gates matched the event's initial $10 million donation. The one-day music festival, headlined by Rodrigo, took place on Saturday, August 29, 2026, at the Great Park in Irvine, California, drawing an audience of approximately 45,000 people. The festival featured an all-female and female-fronted lineup, with artists including Chappell Roan, Mitski, Bikini Kill, Garbage, and The Breeders. All participating performers waived their fees to support the cause.
