A new performance for ZEvent 2024. After a year of hiatus, the eighth edition of ZEvent, a charity marathon, continues live Twitch created by the streamers Adrien Nougaret, also known as Zerator and Alexandre Dachary, alias Dach, returns with success.
In total, the forty streamers who gathered this weekend from 6 to 8 September in Montpellier managed to raise, in more than 48 hours, more than 10 million euros for the benefit of five associations fighting poverty and precariousness. At 01:15 on Monday 9 September, the counter read 10,141,570 euros.
Secours populaire, Cop1, Les Bureaus du Cœur, Solidarité Paysans and Chapter 2 will share this sum. As a reminder, the ZEvento holds the Record for charity event that raised the most money on Twitch. In 2022 as in 2021, the Zerator marathon had thus surpassed the 10 million euros in donations of Internet users, for almost three days.
Domingo, Ultia, Antoine Daniel, Avamind, Damdamlive, Joueur du grenier, Kameto and many other popular streamers on the French-speaking platform Twitch gave of themselves throughout the weekend to encourage their communities to make donations, to which were added the donations raised by another 100 streamers who operated exclusively online.
Return after “a year of hiatus”
On the schedule for this weekend of streams? Video games as the mind wants. As a prelude to the event, a concert was also organized on Thursday, September 5, with the presence of Mosimann, a DJ winner of Star Academy.
The absence of an edition in 2023 could have suggested a decline in mobilization. Indeed, the event was cancelled in 2023 with the aim of “leaving a big message”: “We wanted to take a year off,” Zerator explained in September 2023.
At the same time, Numerous criticisms had emerged on the Internet. But the French Internet was there. And the millions of euros raised this weekend will soon be donated to the selected associations.
