The Red Hot Chili Peppers and hip hop singer Lauryn Hill will headline New York’s Global Citizen festival in September, a concert to rally support in the fight against poverty, organizers announced Tuesday.
Other stars who will take the stage on September 23 in Central Park also include rapper Megan Thee Stallion, pop artist Conan Gray and South Korean boy band Stray Kids.
Organized by the NGO Global Citizen, the concert has taken place every year since 2012 when world leaders are in New York for the session of the United Nations General Assembly.
The organizers offer free tickets, for example to those who pledge to send letters to their government asking for an increase in development aid. “COP27, this year’s G7, the World Bank’s Spring Meetings and the Paris climate finance summit have all failed to deliver tangible results or disrupt the world’s unjust systems,” the report said.
