With Governors Ball already in the past NYC’s festival season is in full swing, and we have a packed lineup of music festivals heading our way–one of those being Global Citizen Festival!

This year marks the 12th iteration of Global Citizen Festival in NYC and we couldn’t be more excited! Here’s a guide of everything you need to know about the festival:

What is Global Citizen Festival?

Making its Central Park debut in 2012, Global Citizen is the world’s leading international advocacy organization on a mission to end extreme poverty.

Since 2009 Global Citizens have taken over 33.5 million actions which, in combination with high-level advocacy work, have led to over $43.6 billion being distributed to partners around the world, impacting 1.29 billion lives in the fight against poverty.

How can I get tickets to Global Citizen Festival this year?

The coolest thing about Global Citizen Festival is that tickets are completely free!

Tickets can be earned by taking action on the Global Citizen app or online to demand change from governments and private sector leaders. This includes signing petitions, making donations, taking quizzes, and more.

This year, global citizens are calling for urgent action to:

  • Defeat Poverty
  • Defend the Planet
  • Demand Equity

Each action you take will earn you points that translate into entries into the festival’s ticket draw. Multiple draws take place, so you’ll have more than one chance to earn tickets.
