‘Now more than ever, we need to ensure that one pandemic does not override another, and we cannot forget the 38 million people living with HIV globally who need our care, love and support so we hope everyone joins us for this special one of a kind Oscar Pre-Party.’   

Since the annual event’s inception, The Academy Awards Viewing Party has supported his charities’ efforts to raise millions for their lifesaving work.

Last year, Elton raised an incredible $6.4 million to help end the AIDS epidemic at his annual Academy Awards viewing party.
