Global Citizen returns to Central Park as part of our biggest event to date, on September 25th.
The Global Citizen Live campaign culminates in a 24-hour, globally broadcast event that brings together dozens of artists with performances at iconic venues on six continents. Although global in scope, the Global Citizen Live event in New York City represents a return to our roots.
Since 2012 Global Citizen has hosted festivals in Central Park as part of our mission to harness advocacy to defeat poverty and defend the planet. This year we return with strict health protocols to make sure you can safely enjoy some of your favorite artists, while demanding a more just world.
The New York lineup includes Coldplay, Billie Eilish, Camila Cabello, Lizzo, Meek Mill and Shawn Mendes, with guest appearances from Alessia Cara, Burna Boy, Cyndi Lauper, Jon Batiste & Stay Human and Lang Lang. More artists will be announced in the coming weeks.
You can also check out the incredible lineups of our events in Lagos and Paris.
Artists who have donated their time and talents to support the campaign and global outreach include Adam Lambert, Alessia Cara, Andrea Bocelli, Angélique Kidjo, Billie Eilish, Black Eyed Peas, BTS, Burna Boy, Camila Cabello, Christine and the Queens, Coldplay, Cyndi Lauper, Davido, Demi Lovato, Doja Cat, DJ Snake, Duran Duran, Ed Sheeran, Femi Kuti, Green Day, HER, Hugh Jackman & Deborra-lee Furness, Jon Batiste and Stay Human, Keith Urban, Lang Lang, Lizzo, Lorde, The Lumineers, Made Kuti, Meek Mill, Metallica, Rag’n’Bone Man, Ricky Martin, Shawn Mendes, Tiwa Savage, The Weeknd and Usher, from locations in Lagos, Rio de Janeiro, New York, Paris, London, Seoul, Los Angeles, Sydney, and others to be announced.
Everyone will be able to watch the one-of-a-kind event on September 25 on ABC, ABC News Live, BBC, FX, iHeartRadio, Hulu, YouTube, TIME, Twitter and more.
You may be listening to Billie Eilish’s Happier Than Ever for the tenth time, or waiting for the new Burna Boy tour dates after last year’s was canceled, wondering if you’ll ever be able to see your favorite artist in person again.
Well, the wait is over. We are offering free double tickets to Global Citizen Live in New York to Global Citizens who take action. This is how you can win your tickets.
How to get tickets to Global Citizen Live in New York
Starting August 10, you will have four chances to win tickets to attend Global Citizen Live in New York.
First, you will have to download the Global Citizen app and create an account. This will allow you to perform actions such as signing petitions, sharing messages on social networks, writing letters to politicians, etc., and thus earn festival points that can be used to participate in ticket raffles.
It is important to note that only the points obtained by performing actions of the festival can be used to participate in the raffles for tickets for the event. Only Global Citizens living in the United States can win tickets to the New York event.
Other than that, it is a straightforward process.
On August 10, we published our first set of actions related to the Global Citizen Live campaign (which you can read more about here). If you complete enough actions by August 24, you will be eligible to enter the raffle for tickets for that action period.
The winners will then be randomly selected by Global Citizen, who will receive an email notification. If you win, you will have 48 hours to claim your tickets.
If you don’t win, don’t worry! The cycle will restart on August 24, when a new set of actions will be released and you will have another chance to earn points for tickets. The third round of actions will be published on September 7, the fourth will be published on September 14, and the final ticket drawing will take place on September 20.
As long as you take enough actions, you can enter the raffle for each ticket for a chance to win.
Once you win your tickets, we’ll send you all the information you’ll need to attend the event, including how to get there, what to bring, and our COVID-19 safety protocols for the day.
You will find everything you need to know about the shares and the issue of Global Citizen Live, what the campaign aims to achieve and how you can support it just here.
