Meet Mick Jagger heads the line-up of artist meet ups and signed instruments that are included in this charity auction, and at the time of this writing, the highest bid for the Meet Mick Jagger auction is at $32,500!

Charitybuzz has been curating auctions that offer dream come true experiences for fans, while at the same time raising funds to help out various environmental and humanitarian causes.

The winner of each bid will get up close and personal with their favorite rock artists backstage, or go on tour with their favorite band, take home a signed exclusive memorabilia and many more.

The cause oriented organizations that will benefit from these auctions include The Ocean Campaign, Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation for Cancer Research, Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, GLSEN, David Lynch Foundation, Bright Pink, HeadCount and more.

The highlight of this month’s auction package is a backstage experience with Mick Jagger himself at a Rolling Stones concert. The winning bidder will pick between the band’s Melbourne and Sydney concerts and have the opportunity to snap a photo with the Stones legend before he hits the stage.

Aside from meeting the band’s iconic vocalist, the package also includes two premium Rolling Stones VIP tickets and pre-show hospitality passes for the lucky winner and his or her companion.

According to Charitybuzz, “It seems everyone wants to see Jagger’s moves in person – so far 20 bids have been placed, raising the current bid to over $30,000”. The auction runs through October 28, so the bids are expected to go even higher! If you have the dough and have been wanting to meet Mick Jagger you can still place your bids at Charitybuzz.
