Now comes word that the show has also set a record by raising more than $200 million, making it the highest-grossing charity concert since George Harrison and Ravi Shankar’s Concert for Bangladesh in 1971 brought the concept of an all-star benefit show to the fore, per Billboard.
Earlier reports put the total from the one-day concert at $190 million, but that was only for charitable donations, per the report.
Alice in Chains bassist Mike Inez, who played in Osbourne’s solo band and performed with AIC and Ozzy at the “Back to the Beginning” show, took to Instagram to share the news about the concert’s success.

Live Aid, which recently celebrated its 40th anniversary, raised about $100 million for famine relief for Ethiopia and Sudan.
The Concert for Bangladesh, the grandaddy of the charity concert, was actually a pair of sold-out shows held at Madison Square Garden on Aug. 1. It raised about $250,000 from the 40,000 tickets sold, but the charity effort didn’t stop there. Following the release of the live album and film Concert for Bangladesh, organizers reportedly sent an estimated $12 million to Bangladesh via UNICEF, Billboard reports.
