Since 2022, Curebound’s signature benefit concert series has raised more than $8.5 million to support innovative cancer research. Curebound announced that legendary music artist, humanitarian, and global superstar, Elton John will headline the 2025 Concert for Cures on Friday, May 9, at Petco Park to raise awareness and funds for cutting-edge cancer research. Since its launch in 2022, Concert for Cures has raised more than $8.5 million to support early-phase adult and pediatric cancer research among Southern California’s top research institutions. Previous headliners include Alicia Keys with the San Diego Symphony Orchestra and Ed Sheeran performing to sold-out crowds at the Rady Shell at Jacobs Park. This year, Concert for Cures expands to Petco Park for an extraordinary night of music, hope, and accelerated impact in the fight against cancer.

Most recently, Elton and GRAMMY-winning singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song for "Never Too Late," featured in his documentary "Elton John: Never Too Late," now streaming on Disney+. The song also appears on their upcoming collaborative studio album, "Who Believes in Angels?," set for release on April 4. “Music has the power to unite people together behind a shared cause,” says Curebound CEO Anne Marbarger. “Every person in the world has been impacted by cancer and by working together, we will accelerate better prevention, detection, and treatment options for patients and families.
