‘Today we stand together.’

The One Love Manchester benefit concert is due to take place tonight, but following the horrific events in London, it was called into question whether or not the event would still go ahead.

However, Ariana Grande’s manager Scooter Braun took to Twitter to release a short statement, saying that all of the acts involved were still going ahead with their performances:

The security at the event will be extremely high, with the Manchester police releasing a video ahead of the concert with safety advice for all the concert goers.

The organisers say the event will also be a tribute to those who lost their lives in the attacks in London last night.

The concert is due to begin at 7.15pm, and if you wish to watch or listen to it live, you can find out how right here.
