New Jersey Proclaims June 10 ‘Christina Grimmie Day’ as Star-Studded Tribute Concert Nears

As the world approaches the 10th anniversary of Christina Grimmie’s passing on 10 June 2026, momentum is building around a wave of commemorations, fresh music and legislative action honoring the late pop singer and YouTube star. New Jersey lawmakers have introduced a bipartisan resolution (SJR137) to designate 10 June as “Christina Grimmie Day,” recognizing the Marlton native’s artistic legacy and her family’s ongoing advocacy for victims of gun violence. If adopted, the day would be marked annually with community service projects and music-focused events across the state. Fans will gather first at Grimmie Fest 2026, a three-day celebration in Evesham Township from 5–7 June. The festival features tribute concerts, a memorabilia exhibit, gaming tournaments (a nod to Grimmie’s Twitch streams) and a candlelight vigil outside the township’s municipal complex. Weekend passes start at $20, with proceeds benefiting the Christina Grimmie Foundation. Adding to the excitement, a posthumous single titled “Eyes Of Your Storm” is slated for digital release on 7 June. Produced by Connor McDonough of Before You Exit—the band Grimmie toured with in 2016—the track blends soaring pop hooks with raw vocal stems recovered from her home studio sessions. Early snippets shared on social media have already sparked viral anticipation under the hashtag #Grimmie10. The Christina Grimmie Foundation, founded by her family in 2017, reports that it has awarded nearly $600,000 in direct grants to almost 500 families affected by gun violence. During the anniversary month, the nonprofit will launch a national “Sing for Safety” campaign, encouraging supporters to post cover videos of Grimmie’s songs while donating $10 in her memory. With new music, statewide recognition and grassroots philanthropy converging this June, Christina Grimmie’s voice—and her message of kindness—continue to resonate louder than ever.
