In 2005 Bettencourt began to consider organizing a concert that would blend music with environmental awareness.

To this end, Atlantis Entertainment commissioned a study of the land to ensure minimal environmental disruption as well as carbon neutrality. [1] The concert was originally planned for 2020, however the COVID-19 pandemic prevented it from taking place.
The concert took place June 23 and 24, 2022. Performing artists included Black Eyed Peas, Bush, Gabriela, Girlfriends, Julian Lennon, Mod Sun, Pigtails, Pitbull, Queen + Adam Lambert (virtual performance), Nicole Scherzinger, Sting (virtual performance), and Stone Temple Pilots.
