The 2025 Global Citizen Festival will take over Central Park's Great Lawn on Saturday, September 27, bringing its signature mashup of music, activism and star power.

In New York, the campaign has a hands-on twist: two "volunteer days" leading up to the festival. On September 13, locals can help The Bowery Mission serve meals to those living in poverty,"
