Women will take center stage at Stage AE in Pittsburgh on September 5 as the Women Who Rock™ Benefit Concert, presented by Gibson Gives, returns with a powerhouse performance from Jessica Simpson.
Tickets are available now at womenwhorock.info.
More than just a concert, this annual event is a rallying cry for women’s health. With less than 10% of federal research dollars going toward women’s health—and those funds facing cuts—proceeds from the show support Magee-Womens Research Institute (MWRI), the nation’s largest institute focused on life-saving women’s health research.
Simpson, who has sold over 20 million albums and built a billion-dollar fashion empire, returns to music with her new EP Nashville Canyon. She’ll headline an all-female lineup that includes Buffalo Rose, DJ ms.TIZA, and the winner of this year’s WWR Rising Star Contest.
The event also honors SURVIVORS WHO ROCK and will present the 2025 WWR Impact Award to designer Kiya Tomlin. Hosted by 100.7 Star FM’s Kelly Dzanaj, the evening features a pink carpet, Beauty Bar, silent auction, VIP Lounge, and more.
“Women’s health is still catching up,” said MWRI CEO Michael Annichine. “Events like this accelerate the change we urgently need.”
Founded by Melinda Colaizzi, Women Who Rock™ uses music to amplify women’s voices in healthcare and the arts.
