The 2017 ‘Global Citizen Festival’ is scheduled to rock the world September 23rd, in New York City, featuring the Chainsmokers, The Lumineers, Big Sean, Alessia Cara, Green Day and more. The festival venue is one of the most popular in the entire world, the Great Lawn in Central Park. The doors open at 2 pm, tickets priced between $350 to $1,400 for the VIP experience.
The objective and concept behind Global Citizen are advocacy for the extinction of poverty in our world and becoming a loud voice of reason aimed at our Global leaders.
