Lorde is poised to take center stage at the second annual All Things Go music festival in Toronto, Canada. The celebrated artist, known for her poignant lyrics and unique sound, will headline the event alongside pop sensation Kesha.

The festival, which unfolds over two days, revealed its diverse lineup on Tuesday. Attendees can look forward to performances from indie favorites such as The Beaches and Wet Leg, adding to the event’s eclectic mix of talent.

The festival announcement fell on the same day that Lorde announced she donated the full proceeds from her Minneapolis merchandise sales, totaling $204,000, to immigrant advocacy organizations.
The singer posted an image to her Instagram Story showing the words ‘ICE out’ written across her hand, confirming the funds would be split between the Minnesota Immigration Rights Action Committee and the Immigrant Defense Network.
Lorde is currently on her Ultrasound World Tour and performed two sold-out shows in Minneapolis on October 11 and 12, where the merch sales were generated.
In her post, she made clear that the donation reflected her opposition to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and solidarity with immigrant communities.
Her statement comes amid a broader wave of musicians using high-profile moments to criticize ICE and U.S. immigration policy.
At the 2026 Grammy Awards, several artists wore ‘ICE out’ pins on the red carpet, while others addressed the issue directly from the stage.
Among the most prominent voices was Joni Mitchell, who incorporated an ‘ICE out’ pin into her sequined look before accepting the Grammy for Best Historical Album for Joni Mitchell Archives – Volume 4: The Asylum Years.
Other stars who echoed the message throughout the night included Justin Bieber, Hailey Bieber, Kehlani, Jason Isbell, Justin Vernon, Rhiannon Giddens, and Margo Price.
Kehlani, 30, was among the most outspoken.
After winning Best R&B Performance and Best R&B Song for Folded, she delivered an emotional acceptance speech condemning ICE while wearing an ‘ICE out’ pin on a plunging black sequined halter dress.
One of the night’s most powerful moments came from Bad Bunny, who made history by winning Album of the Year for DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, the first Spanish-language album to ever take the category.
During his speech – which was primarily in Spanish – he sent a powerful message as he said: ‘I want to dedicate this award to all the people that had to leave their homeland, their country, to follow their dreams.’
‘Before I say thanks to God, I’m going to say, ICE Out,’ he began. ‘The hate gets more powerful with more hate. The only thing that is more powerful than hate is love.
‘So, please, we need to be different. If we fight, we have to do it with love. Yeah. We don’t hate them, we love our people, we love our family, and that’s the way to do it, with love. Don’t forget that, please. Thank you. Thank you, god! And thank you to The Academy,’ he concluded.

Billie Eilish also expressed similar political sentiments as she even used profane language, which was bleeped out by network censors.
The 24-year-old Los Angeles native – born Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connell – was emotional as she earned Song Of The Year for WILDFLOWER while accompanied by brother FINNEAS.
During her speech she said: ‘As grateful as I feel, I honestly don’t feel like I need to say anything but that no one is illegal on stolen land.
‘And, yeah, it’s just really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, and I feel really hopeful in this room, and I feel like we just need to keep fighting and speaking up and protesting, and our voices really do matter, and the people matter. That’s all I’m going to say. Sorry. Thank you so much. I can’t believe this.’

If Eilish’s message was not already clear enough she yelled ‘f** ICE’ before walking off-stage in a moment which was censored by CBS.
Olivia Dean, who earned one of the most coveted awards in music as she took home Best New Artist, took the opportunity to reference the political climate by including a dedication to her immigrant grandmother in her speech.
The 26-year-old British singer beat out a very impressive field including TikTok famous Addison Rae in addition to: KATSEYE, The Marias, sombr, Leon Thomas, Alex Warren, and Lola Young.
‘I guess I want to say I’m up here as a granddaughter of an immigrant. I wouldn’t be here,’ she told the audience.
Her grandmother immigrated from the UK from Guyana at the age of 18 as part of the Windrush Generation during World War II.
Dean’s ethnic background also includes Jamaican and English.
