It's the weekend that the whole French Twitch community looks forward to every year.
After a record edition in 2021 with more than 10 million euros collected for the benefit of Action against Hunger, the charity event created by Adrien Nougaret, alias Zerator, Alexandre Dachary, alias Dach, is back for a seventh edition.
In a 3-minute video, the French streamer, who recently organized the Trackmania Cup, a huge competition on the Trackmania car racing video game, at the Accor Arena in Bercy, revealed the names of those who will accompany him in this 50-hour streaming marathon, September 9-11.
If some Internet users regret the absence of their favorite streamers and youtubers like Squeezie, Gotaga, Michou or even Kameto, the regulars of the event like Mister MV, Antoine Daniel, Ponce, Domingo, or even Baghera Jones have responded for this seventh edition, which will be the last
“before changing the formula”
announced Zerator on Twitter.
Newcomers also appear on the poster published on social networks like Avamind, Tonton or even the Twitter user with 400,000 subscribers Arkunir.
For the benefit of the GoodPlanet Foundation
Gathered in a room and for more than 50 hours, the fifty or so streamers will try to mobilize their communities to encourage them to make donations for the benefit of the GoodPlanet foundation, which acts for the protection of the environment.
To do so, each of them will broadcast live content on their Twitch channel.
On the program, video games but also quizzes, karaoke, sports, and probably some nice surprises.
Yann Arthus-Bertrand, founding president of the foundation created in 2005, said in a press release:
“What joy that the Foundation has been chosen for such a resounding and mobilizing event.
It is also a great responsibility for us.
From the bottom of my heart, a big thank you to
Albane Godard, General Manager of GoodPlanet, also detailed the list of projects that could be financed thanks to the funds collected: "
awareness and promotion of initiatives by 15-24 year olds on environmental issues, support for farmers in transition to agroforestry in France, restoration of mangroves...
”.
Like last year, the event will be preceded by a musical evening on September 8th.
After Sofiane, Kikesa and LEJ at the Palais des Congrès de la Grande Motte, it's the turn of BigFlo and Oli, Berywam, PV Nova and the streamer and singer LittleBigWhale, French Fuse as well as Soprano to succeed each other on stage, this time at Zénith de Montpellier, for a 3-hour show in front of 6,000 people, of course broadcast live on Twitch.
