The Tibetan Freedom Concerts Turn 30!
Let’s Celebrate and Create Another Big Moment!
Every dollar is doubled through Dec 31!
Thirty years ago, the Tibetan Freedom Concerts filled Golden Gate Park—and the airwaves—with something unforgettable. People came for the music and left believing they could help create change.
We need that feeling again—for Tibet, for the U.S., for all of us.
Freedom Needs a Soundtrack is a story-driven cultural campaign. At its heart is a six-episode narrative podcast, launching June 2026 on the 30th anniversary of the first concert. Around it, we’re building the ecosystem that made the original movement sing—merch, prints, zines, playlists, gatherings, reels, and story-sharing that turn listeners into participants.
Why Now
Because stories of courage and creativity are fuel in hard times.
Because the Tibetan freedom movement is at a turning point.
Because nonviolence needs a stage.
Because culture can shift what politics won’t.
Because people everywhere are ready to do more than just listen.
Join us backstage—and help prove once again that when artists, activists, and audiences come together, something unstoppable is possible.
