TIME FOR THE RAID TRAIN!

A raid train is a big Twitch marathon — a chain of streamers all going live one after another, each “raiding” (sending their viewers to) the next streamer at the end of their livestream. That means the audience travels together from one channel to the next, creating a continuous event full of gaming, music, fun, and community energy.

Think of it like a digital music festival, but instead of walking to a new stage, you just follow the raid!

We’re using the power of Twitch’s community to raise funds for Paradox Opera, a nonprofit that brings accessible, innovative opera to audiences everywhere — both online and in person.

Every stop on the train features one of our incredible creators, performers, or friends of PXO, all streaming to support the cause. Together, we’re turning Twitch into a stage for good.

We’re accepting applications from streamers who want to join the Raid Train! Each streamer in our lineup will be assigned a 3-hour block to stream a game or activity of their choice while raising money for Paradox Opera. Because we have limited slots and a big goal to reach, potential streamers should be confident that they can raise at least $500 for PXO during their three hours!

If you’re not selected for an official slot but still want to help us reach our goal, we would love to have you hop in a sidecar (stream on your own, raising funds for us and raid into the main train after)! Keep an eye on our socials or join the PXO Discord for future opportunities.

It’s easy to hop aboard! You can join at any point during the event.

1. Check out the Full Schedule Here. You can see the lineup, who’s live right now, and where we are on the train.

2. When one streamer finishes, stay in chat! You’ll automatically “raid” into the next stop.

3. Stay for the ride! You can come and go at any time. If you miss a stop, you can always visit that streamer’s page later to watch their VOD (if available). Every view, chat message, and cheer keeps the energy going strong!

Nope! You can watch any stream for free without logging in. However, if you want to chat or interact, you’ll need to create a free Twitch account — it takes less than a minute.

We’ve made something extra special for this event: the Paradox Opera Digital Passport!

Here’s how it works:

• You can get your Passport on the team campaign homepage

• As you travel through the raid train, each streamer has a unique digital stamp you can collect by donating to their individual campaign, but only why they are live.

• Collect them all to fill your Passport and show off your journey across the PXO Raid Train!

It’s a fun, interactive way to support, explore, and keep a souvenir of your impact — no baggage fees required.

YES! Every little bit helps — and not all support costs money!

• Lurk!
  Leaving a stream open helps boost the viewer count and visibility on Twitch. Think of it like clapping quietly in the back row — your presence matters!
  Just keep the stream tab open and the volume turned slightly up (Twitch only counts it if it’s not completely muted).

• Share!
  Post the schedule link or team campaign on your social media, tell a friend, or drop a message in Discord. The more people know, the more momentum we build.

• Cheer in chat!
  Hype up the streamers, welcome raiders, and celebrate donations. Good vibes make the train roll faster

All proceeds go directly to Paradox Opera, supporting artist pay, production costs, and community programs that make opera accessible to everyone.

We’re raising funds through a main Tiltify campaign, with each streamer hosting their own individual campaign page as part of the team.

• Every streamer’s page connects to the main campaign total, so all donations count toward our big goal!

• Each streamer will have their own fun incentives and milestones, listed right on their page — think silly challenges, special songs, and more.

• You can browse or donate directly via the Main Team Page

All donations go toward Paradox Opera’s mission: paying artists fairly, creating new works, and keeping opera accessible to everyone. This specific fundraiser is primarily going toward our Spring Production of NEXT TO NORMAL!

Absolutely. Donations are open the entire duration of the event. Just visit the Tiltify Team Campaign and choose any streamer or the main page to give.
