Global Citizen Live was the 2021 instance of the Global Citizen Festival, so named because it was broadcast live internationally from cities across six continents around the world on 25 and 26 September 2021. [1]

Contents

Background

Global Citizen has held an annual music festival since 2012, one of the organization's main events to raise awareness of global poverty and climate change; founded in 2008, it aims to end poverty by 2030. The live 2021 festival, held across six continents, was the largest, as part of Global Citizen's 2021 Recovery Plan for the World program. Added to the festival mission was an aim to help bring an end to the COVID-19 pandemic, with a focus on vaccine equity. [1] [2] It was timed to occur during the G20 summit and UN general assembly meetings. [3] Global Citizen had held "Vax Live: The Concert To Reunite The World" earlier in 2021. [4]

Festival

Global Citizen Live
Concert locations

Compared to Live Aid and one of the biggest international charity events ever, the festival featured live global performances from some of the world's top recording and classical artists across various cultures. More than 60 artists were scheduled to perform. [3] [4] Simon Le Bon, who performed with Duran Duran at both Live Aid and Global Citizen Live, said that the intention of Live Aid had "diminished in people's minds" and become forgotten. The band's bassist John Taylor said that Global Citizen Live was the closest thing to Live Aid in the age of streaming, and would not be possible without Live Aid and Band Aid creating the precedent. [2]

Global Citizen estimated that tens of thousands of people would attend the in-person events, and millions would watch the live broadcasts. Tickets were free, and awarded at random to people who shared Global Citizen campaigns through their app; attendees had to prove either a negative COVID-19 test or vaccination against it. [4] The organization does not aim to raise money with the festival, but encourage people to take action - and pressure leaders to take action - on global issues. [2] However, prior to the festival, Global Citizen reaches out to corporations, organizations and even nations for financial and material pledges towards reaching its aims, which are then announced between performances during the festival. [5]

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made an appearance at the New York event, calling for global vaccine equity. [6]

Performances

Several performances were pre-recorded. Some locations did not have live events open to the public, but were broadcast live. [1] The live performances were held over the 24 hour period beginning at 1 pm on September 25 in New York. [7] [lower-alpha 1]
