Olivia Rodrigo closed out her inaugural Daisy Chain Fields Music Festival in California with a star-studded finale featuring surprise appearances from Sarah McLachlan and Stevie Nicks, capping an event that raised more than $20 million for women's charities. The festival, which also featured performers such as Chappell Roan, combined music with philanthropy, and included an emotional tribute to Dolly Parton following her recent death, underscoring Rodrigo's efforts to use her platform for charitable causes.

McLachlan joined Rodrigo for a rendition of "Angel" dedicated to Parton, while Nicks appeared for a performance of "Landslide" to close the show. The festival raised $10 million, which was then matched by Melinda French Gates, bringing the total to $20 million. Proceeds are being directed to organisations including Baby2Baby, the Black Mamas Matter Alliance, the National Women's Law Center and Planned Parenthood.
