Turnstile Announce Free Washington Monument Show for Humanitarian Aid

Turnstile will play a free show at the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C. on October 24 at 3 p.m. local time, with proceeds supporting humanitarian aid in Palestine, Sudan and Lebanon.

The Baltimore band is partnering with Human Concern International for the concert. Fans can RSVP for the event and are encouraged to donate to the organization's aid efforts across the three regions.

Hassan Wadi, global director of Human Concern International, said in a statement tied to the event: "As a Gazan, I cannot be prouder of the Turnstile team and community for coming together to support the people of Gaza, Lebanon, and Sudan. Three regions who have suffered so much."

Wadi added: "With your support we aim to provide food, water, medical care, and shelter to families in need in all three regions. Thank you all for your support, we are honored to collect and deliver these donations."

Where does the show sit in Turnstile's year?

The Washington Monument date closes the Never Enough Pt. 2 Tour, which opened in June in support of the band's 2025 album of the same name.

In September, Turnstile released a remix edition of the album featuring a reimagined track list, with contributions from Slayyyter, Four Tet, Faye Webster, Floating Points, Hayley Williams and more.

What did their SNL debut achieve?

Last week, Turnstile made their Saturday Night Live debut, becoming the first hardcore band on the show's stage since Fear's controversial 1981 performance — a gap of more than four decades between hardcore appearances.

The band performed two Never Enough cuts: "Birds", adopted this year as something of a Baltimore Orioles theme, and "I Care/Dull".

The October 24 concert adds a humanitarian capstone to a breakout year that has spanned a studio album, a remix edition, a national tour and network television.
