Cardi B Replaces The Weeknd as 2025 Global Citizen Festival Headliner in New York
The Weeknd has withdrawn from headlining the 2025 Global Citizen Festival in New York City's Central Park for personal reasons, prompting Cardi B to step in as the new headliner. The festival, which is dedicated to ending extreme poverty, will take place on September 27 and feature performances by Shakira, Tyla, Ayra Starr, Mariah the Scientist, Camilo, and Elyanna. Cardi B, who recently released her Platinum-certified album AM I THE DRAMA?, expressed excitement about supporting the cause and performing in her hometown. Hugh Evans, CEO of Global Citizen, praised Cardi B's addition to the lineup and thanked The Weeknd and his fans for their support of the mission. Hugh Jackman will host the event, which will also include appearances by Bill Nye, Adam Lambert, Danai Gurira, and others, and will be streamed live on multiple platforms including YouTube and Apple Music. Tickets are free but require fans to take action via the Global Citizen app to earn them.
