This World AIDS Day, we’re collaborating with TikTok to reach millions globally, helping to raise awareness, deepen understanding and striving to achieve the shared goal of ending the AIDS epidemic by 2030.
The campaign kicks off on November 25th with an HIV/AIDS Education & Awareness Quiz to test TikTokers’ knowledge of this disease, as well as helping to educate them about prevention and their own sexual health.
On World AIDS Day itself, a special LIVE, presented by Elton John AIDS Foundation in Partnership with TikTok will take place at 7pm GMT on Sir Elton John’s TikTok channel. Hosted by Reggie Yates the show will feature Sir Elton John and David Furnish as well as TikTok stars and celebrity guests. Performances by critically acclaimed recording artist Rina Sawayama, BRIT Critics’ Choice Winner Sam Fender as well as OSCAR and Grammy-Award winning artist Sam Smith will also feature in the show.
This Quiz is currently live in the UK, and will be available in the US from Monday 30th November 2020.

I’m excited to recognise World AIDS Day with TikTok and my Foundation this year to celebrate progress that we’ve made and mark what we can do collectively to end the AIDS epidemic. HIV may seem a disease of the past, especially with COVID-19 in the headlines but it still affects everyone. We all need to care about HIV and end the discrimination around this disease. There’s a great line-up for our TikTok Live to break down the myths around HIV, talk about safe sex and ensure that young people know how to protect themselves and others. Elton John
