After last month's horrific bombing at the Manchester Arena immediately following an Ariana Grande concert, the 23-year-old pop star hosted the One Love Manchester Benefit Concert in honor of the victims of the attack and their families.

An emotionally-charged celebration of love and the power of music, dozens of artists, including Grande, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Little Mix, Pharrell Williams, Miley Cyrus, and more came together to share messages of love and unity with song. 

Watch a few of the heartwarming performances below.

Justin Beiber's acoustic version of "Cold Water."

Black Eyed Peas and Ariana Grande ask "Where is the Love?"

Imogen Heap searches for answers with her 2005 indie hit "Hide n Seek."

Ariana Grande sings "My Everything" with the Parrs Wood High School Choir.

Pharrell Williams and Miley Cyrus are "Happy" in their performance.

Coldplay fires up the crowd with "Fix You."

Little Mix performs "Wings."

Katy Perry's empowering "Roar."

 

Grande closed out the show with a tearful rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," and had to pause her performance as she was overcome with emotion.

Together, the superstars raised over $9 million dollars for the British Red Cross. They all came on stage during Grande's 2014 hit, "One Last Time."

An incredible night all around.

All proceeds from the sales of "One Last Time" on iTunes will go to the We Love Manchester Emergency Fund. Buy it here!
