Some of the biggest names in music, comedy, and sports are coming together for an huge charity hockey game to support LA wildfire relief. Justin Bieber, Ross Lynch, and Steve Carell are among the celebs getting ready to take on the challenge For LA Strong: A Celebration to Support the Fire Recovery Efforts in Los Angeles. The event is happening on Sunday, Feb. 23, at Crypto.com Arena.
But they’re not the only big names involved—Snoop Dogg, Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Danny DeVito, and Cobie Smulders will be serving as coaches. Plus, Kaskade, Jordan Davis, and Lauren Spencer-Smith are set to perform, making it a full-on entertainment event. Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN2 or stream it on ESPN+.
The game itself will feature four teams, each with 13 players, competing in a single-elimination format. It’s not just celebrities hitting the ice—hockey legends like Jeremy Roenick, Rob Blake, Mark Messier, Manon Rhéaume, and Dany Heatley will be playing alongside athletes from other sports and first responders who love the game.
For Bieber, this isn’t his first rodeo when it comes to celebrity hockey. The “Sorry” singer has played in several star-studded matchups and even captained a team at the 2024 NHL All-Star Game in Toronto.
All proceeds from Skate For LA Strong will go toward organizations like the Red Cross, the LA Fire Foundation, the Cal Fire Foundation, and the Eaton Canyon Fire Relief and Recovery Fund. Firefighters, first responders, community group leaders, and fire victims (plus their families) can attend for free, as well as LA Kings season ticket holders.
So, whether you’re a hockey fan, a music lover, or just here for the chaos of Snoop Dogg coaching, this is one event you won’t want to miss.
