(QUEEN CITY NEWS) -- More than 80,000 music fans filled Bank of America Stadium on Saturday night for a great time and cause, raising over $24.5 million for Hurricane Helene relief. Presleigh Clark, 11, was among those eager to get to their seat to see North Carolina natives Luke Combs, Eric Church, The Avett Brothers, and others perform in a benefit concert. It's been nearly one month since the storm ripped through Western North Carolina. Governor Roy Cooper said officials estimate $53 billion in damages. Concert for Carolina: How funds from Hurricane Helene relief concert will help Western NC All proceeds from the event are going to those in need in Western North Carolina. "I just want to help them get back to what they used to be," Ethan Richardson, 11, said. Combs and others announced the event in early October. Some fans Queen City News spoke with on Saturday night used two computers to wait in line on Ticketmaster for tickets. The group had more than 38,000 people in front of them but they were determined to hear their favorite artists and give back at the same time.

Fans found their seats quickly. The concert started later than expected due to a brief thunderstorm, but that didn't stop fans from having a good time and sticking together. "We're going to show up for each other and we are going to do whatever we can to build back better," Mitzi Nuckols said.
