Stand Up To Cancer Heads to Nashville for 2025 Prime-Time Fundraiser

This August, Stand Up To Cancer® makes its long-awaited debut in Music City with a landmark fundraising special broadcasting live from The Pinnacle, Nashville’s newest premier event venue. The commercial-free, one-hour telecast airs Friday, August 15 at 8PM ET/PT, across more than 30 platforms — including all four major US broadcast networks.

The 2025 edition will be hosted by GRAMMY® winner Sheryl Crow, with a special appearance from global icon Dolly Parton, uniting stars, survivors, and scientists in a powerful, music-driven celebration of collaboration, progress, and hope.

Produced by Stand Up To Cancer and Done+Dusted, this year’s show reflects a renewed creative spirit — infusing Nashville’s energy into a format that continues to raise vital awareness and funding for groundbreaking cancer research. As always, the telecast will spotlight real stories from survivors and feature appearances from some of the world’s most beloved entertainers and advocates, with more names to be announced soon.

Done+Dusted is honored to return as producing partner for our fifth SU2C special, with James Merryman directing, Derek Wells as musical director, and executive production by Pam Oas Williams, Lisa Paulsen, David Jammy, Liz Kelly, and others.
