Bohemian Rhapsody concludes in July 1985 with the band’s iconic performance at Live Aid. The film shows HIV/AIDS spreading worldwide and Mercury revealing to his bandmates that he has contracted the virus. After reconnecting with his family, Freddie and the band then go on to deliver a showstopping set (performing ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’, ‘Radio Ga Ga’, ‘Hammer to Fall’ and ‘We Are the Champions’) at Live Aid, helping to raise money for AIDS charities in the process.
