This year’s event was supported by The Guitar Center Music Foundation, which raises funds for music education programs and schools in need. Throughout the concert, fans had the opportunity to support The Guitar Center Foundation by donating. Each $10 donation on-site at the Takeover earned fans a single entry to win one of three Taylor Guitars, which were given away at the end of the night.
