The 12-12-12 Hurricane Sandy benefit concert will take place on Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden in New York, in one of the most eagerly awaited music concerts of modern times. The concert will feature some of the biggest names in the music industry as well as a host of actors and comedians.

The concert for Sandy relief will start at 7.30 p.m. ET and can be watched online through free live stream right here on The Christian Post via the player below. There is also a link provided at the bottom of this article to donate to the Hurricane Sandy relief efforts.

The 12-12-12 concert sold out long ago, and The Robin Hood Foundation has reportedly already raised $30 million to contribute to the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut regions affected. Every dollar made from ticket sales will go directly toward Hurricane Sandy relief, thanks to the generosity of sponsors, organizers and Robin Hood's board of directors.
