The Bridge School Benefit is an annual non-profit charity concert held in Mountain View, California every October at the Shoreline Amphitheater. The concerts are all organized by musician Neil Young and his wife, Pegi. Proceeds benefit The Bridge School. The first concert was in October 1986, and, with the exception of 1987, the concert has been held every year since. As a practice, but not a rule, the performers use acoustic instruments. Young also personally performs every year.


Not necessarily in order of appearance. All acts subject to change.

The concert will be held at Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California on Saturday, October 24, 2009 - 5:00pm and Sunday, October 25, 2009 - 2:00pm.
