Global Citizen Concert: Ed Sheeran, Beyonce, Pearl Jam & Coldplay

Ed Sheeran, Beyonce, Pearl Jam & Coldplay: The free concert, which will air on MSNBC. The Festival is timed to coincide with the launch of the United Nations’ new Global Goals designed to fight inequality, protect our planet and end extreme poverty by 2030.

The concert is entering its fourth year in the Park, and will take over the Great Lawn on September 26th. The show is free, but attendees need to earn spots by taking "actions"—this includes writing letters to world leaders, making phone calls to elected officials and signing petitions. The event is meant to raise awareness and help fight against inequality and world hunger.
