On December 1, the Tim Bergling Foundation will host the “Together For A Better Day” Concert For Youth Mental Health at Avicii Arena.
The legacy of Tim Bergling, aka Avicii, resonates beyond the dance music community to this day. In honor of his life, his family started The Tim Bergling Foundation to address mental health awareness and suicide prevention. In partnership with the Avicii Arena in Stockholm, Sweden, they will host the first Avicii Arena Together For A Better Day Concert on December 1.
The Avicii Arena was renamed earlier this year to honor Avicii, and since has become a meeting place for young people’s mental health. Drawing inspiration from their work with the For A Better Day fundraiser, the Tim Bergling Foundation aims to further this work and help young people struggling with mental health issues. The concert hopes to spread awareness, remove the stigma, and provide support for these youth. This special night will be the first of an annual event.
I hope we succeed in creating a feeling that we really do this together, because it is only together that we can make a difference. Young people are our future and we must be afraid for them. It is unacceptable that they are getting worse and that suicide rates are rising in that group – and it is our duty to do what we can to break that trend.

The lineup features mostly Swedish artists from multiple genres including EDM, classical music, rock, pop, RnB, and hip hop. Making an appearance for this unique concert are Miriam Bryant, Galantis, Annika Norlin, Cherrie, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and more! Also, 14-year-old star Ella Tiritiello, who captured the world’s heart with her rendition of Avicii’s song “For A Better Day” at the Arena’s opening, is set to perform.
This incredible night will feature tributes to Avicii’s musical legacy. Attendees will be treated to surprise collaborations and special guests throughout the evening. Tickets are on sale now.
