Camelphat & Circus host Liverpool children hospital charity gig
By Alexandre Trochut
CamelPhat, the renowned electronic duo made up of Dave Whelan and Mike Di Scala, will perform a special charity gig in partnership with Liverpool-born DJ, producer, and Circus founder Yousef, who will join the duo as the support act for the night. Hosted at Liverpool’s Invisible Wind Factory on November 1st 2024 and running from 10pm until 3am, this event aims to raise crucial funds for Zoe’s Place, a children’s hospice currently facing closure due to lease issues.
About Zoe’s Place
Founded in 1995, Zoe's Place Baby Hospice provides essential respite, palliative, and end-of-life care for infants and young children aged up to five years old, supporting early-years children who have life-limiting or life-threatening complex illnesses or profound disabilities. Recently, the hospice announced it would have to close by year’s end, citing an expiring lease and a lack of time and resources to relocate. In response, a fundraising campaign has been launched, seeking to secure £5 million by November 9 to help Zoe’s Place find a new location in Liverpool.
The campaign statement explains:
“Zoe’s Place Baby Hospice is fundraising to secure a new home in Liverpool. This could involve purchasing, building, renovating, or equipping a suitable facility to continue delivering our services. If the hospice is forced to close, any restricted donations would be discussed with the donor for potential return or repurposing. Any other donations will support the care of our babies and families until year’s end. If a resolution is found, the funds will contribute to establishing a new hospice.”

Joining CamelPhat on the lineup is Liverpool DJ Yousef, founder of the popular house and techno event Circus, who will also perform in support of Zoe’s Place. All proceeds from the charity concert will go directly toward helping the children’s hospice secure a new home, offering attendees a chance to enjoy a night of music for an important cause.
Tickets are £35 with all proceeds going to charity & will be on sale on sale Friday 18th Oct at 10am here.
