Where to buy tickets, best prices
Central Park is the place to be this weekend.
On Saturday, September 23rd, the annual Global Citizen Festival returns to New York City’s iconic Great Lawn Park for a day of great music for an even greater cause – ending extreme poverty.
Headliners for the charitable extravaganza include Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lauryn Hill of The Fugees, Jungkook of BTS, K-pop icons Stray Kids and rising pop star Conan Gray.
However, that’s not all.
Chris Rock, Charlize Theron, Eddie Izzard, Katie Holmes and Natasha Lyonne will also be on hand to speak.
Additionally, Carmelo Anthony and Bill Nye are also scheduled to take the stage, making the event a true “Only in New York” event.
And if you want to attend the one-day festival, it’s not too late to get your tickets.
At the time of publication, general admission VIP passes start at $451 before Vivid Seats fees.
While that may seem like a steep price to pay – especially for a festival trying to end extreme poverty – it’s not quite so bad when you consider all the big names you’ll cross off your bucket list in a single day can.
