Tidal is hosting its third annual benefit concert on Oct. 17, the streaming platform owned by Jay-Z announced on Friday.

The concert will be hosted by radio vet Angie Martinez with proceeds going to victims of recent natural disasters, including Hurricane Harvey, Irma and Maria as well as the earthquake earlier this week in Mexico City.

While previous reports suggested Beyoncé and Jay-Z would headline the event, Tidal has yet to reveal details. "We have not announced or confirmed any line up or partner organizations, but stay tuned," a rep for Tidal said Thursday in a statement to Variance.

The company has since confirmed some of the charity organizations benefiting from the event. Among them will be Global Giving, All Hands Volunteers, Kids in Need Foundation, Direct Relief, One America Appeal, Greater Houston Community Foundation, American Civil Liberties Union and Miami Community Foundation.

Pre-sale tickets are available to Tidal subscribers, with a general on-sale on Sept. 26.
