Billie Eilish will come to State Farm Arena on November 3rd for her second edition Overheated climate sustainability conference. Following last year's debut in London, the first US edition will include an appearance by the 'Birds of a Feather' singer, as well as a panel of climate activists, thought leaders, artists and others who will host discussions and offer resources to help tackle the climate crisis.
The event will take place from 10 am. until 4 p.m. and although only 300 tickets have been made available to fans, those unable to attend can watch from home via live stream on YouTube from 10am. until 4 p.m. ET on the official Eilish channel.
“I'm thrilled that we can bring this unique event to Billie's American fans. And to people all over the world who can watch the live stream,” Eilish's mother Maggie Baird said in a statement. “Right now, more than ever, we all need to be climate activists.” Overheated is a collaboration between the singer and Support + Feed, the plant-based food initiative founded by Baird, with organizers providing plant-based meals to all attendees.
Among the panels that will be used for the event are: “Environmental Justice 101”, “The stories We Tell”, “What We Eat Matters”, “Fashion Your Future”, “Climate Optimism” and “Your Vote, Your Power”. The gathering will highlight a variety of “accessible actions members of the public can take to make a positive impact on their communities and the planet,” according to a release. “This year, the event will also highlight the importance of political actions that support climate solutions.”
