The Concert for Linda was a benefit tribute to Linda McCartney, wife of Paul McCartney. It was held at the Royal Albert Hall in London on 10 April 1999.[1] Linda McCartney died after a long battle with cancer nearly a year earlier, when she was 56. They were married for 29 years.
The event was organised by two of their friends, Chrissie Hynde and Carla Lane.[2] Comedian Eddie Izzard hosted the concert, with proceeds going to various animal rights charities. Chrissie Hynde and Linda had worked together supporting various animal rights groups, including PETA.[3] Tickets to the show, with 5,000 people attending, sold out within an hour after going on sale.[4]
