Maltese DJ Daniel Blade will take on a 20-hour continuous DJ set on Friday 23rd October at Truth Nightclub, Paceville, raising mental health awareness and funds for the Richmond Foundation.
Running from 8AM until 4AM the following morning, the event, titled “20 Hours. One Purpose.”, will be open to the public and streamed live worldwide.
Blade says the initiative was inspired by the struggles he sees within the music and nightlife scene.
“Behind the music, the parties, the smiles and the nightlife, there are a lot of people struggling silently,” he explained.
Having spoken openly about living with ADHD, Blade says remaining in one place for 20 hours will also be a significant personal challenge, which is part of his motivation for taking it on.
Known locally for Yakuza Parties and internationally for performances in destinations including Ibiza, Mykonos and Tulum, Blade is now putting his platform behind a cause close to his heart.
Proceeds will support Richmond Foundation’s mental health services, including therapy, assisted living and its 24/7 helpline.
Businesses and individuals are invited to support the initiative through sponsorships, partnerships or contributions.
Donation details and the full event schedule will be announced in the coming weeks.
