The Copa del Rave is a charity soccer tournament that officially announced it’s return to Los Angeles for its fourth tournament on November 2nd. Hosted at Evolve Project in LA’s Frogtown neighborhood, a total of eight teams will compete for the chance to be the champion of Copa del Rave.
“Copa del Rave is back! We might be older and slightly more injury-prone, but the hunger out on the field is still real,” said co-founders Alastair Duncan, Jonathan McDonald, and Ardalan. “We’re truly grateful for all the teams and DJs participating, who are willing to get out there and play for a good cause.”
The first three installments of Copa del Rave were able to raise over $40,000 in charity donations for the LA Mission, MusicCares and Give a Beat. The events featured stars like Diplo, GG Magree, Wax Motif, Ardalan, TEED, The Chainsmokers, and other notable artists over the last few years. Each team is required to donate to compete, and the winning team will pick the charity that will receive this year’s donation.
Last year the cup was won by Kappa. The previous two editions in 2019 were won by Red Light Management.
The initial teams were revealed today, and include:
CREATE Music Group
Capitol Music Group
Downtown Music
INFAMOUS
Red Light Management
Symphonic Distribution
YourArmy/ATC
The Free Agents
Confirmed DJ players for November include Copa co-founder Ardalan, TEED, Xie, Zomboy, Zen Freeman, EDDIE and Borgore with many more to be revealed.
