Affirming its status as the global leader in live concerts, Live Nation (NYSE:LYV) , announced today that it will promote the forthcoming Live Earth concerts in London and New York on 7/7/07 on behalf of Live Earth founder and Control Room CEO, Kevin Wall, who is the world wide producer of the events. The 7-continent 24-hour Live Earth concerts were announced earlier this week with the confirmation of headliners for the London and New York concerts.

Live Earth, which was founded by the event's Executive Producer Kevin Wall, is a monumental music event that will bring together more than 2 billion people to combat the climate crisis. Live Earth's 24 hours of music across 7 continents will deliver a call to action and the solutions needed to answer the call. Live Earth marks the beginning of a multi-year campaign led by The Alliance for Climate Protection to move individuals, corporations and governments to take action.


Live Nation played a major role in the recent Live8 concerts that were staged around the globe in 2005. The company staged the events in London, Philadelphia, and Berlin.


Commenting on the Live Earth London show, Stuart Galbraith, Managing Director Live Nation (UK) Music said: "We are very pleased to have been entrusted to stage the concert at the new Wembley Stadium in London and are anticipating massive demand for Live Earth tickets."

This is an extraordinary undertaking and we are proud to be involved in the production of this event in multiple cities around the world."
