Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Anitta and Jung Kook of BTS took the stage at the 2023 Global Citizen Festival.
Highlights from the benefit concert, taking place in New York City's Central Park, will be broadcast on ABC Sunday beginning at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT.
The Global Citizen Festival provides free tickets to the event in exchange for fans taking actions for social change on the group's app and website. Global Citizen supporters are urging governments to take action to address extreme poverty and the system issues that keep millions of people from escaping it.
The festival marked the first time record-setting K-Pop singer Jung Kook performed live without BTS. His debut solo single "Seven" hit No. 1 in the United States and around the world this summer.
Additional performers included Conan Gray, D-Nice, Sofia Carson and Stray Kids.
Speakers ranging from Bill Nye the Science Guy to rapper Common, TV host Padma Lakshmi to basketball star Carmelo Anthony and numerous advocates from around the world also encouraged viewers to take additional actions.
