25 Photos of the Chainsmokers, Andra Day, Stevie Wonder, Green Day, and More at the 2017 Global Citizen Festival in Central Park

This past Saturday, 60,000 Global Citizens from across the country and around the world made their way to New York City's Central Park for an action-packed (literally) festival that featured some of the best musicians in pop, rock, and rap right now. 

These performers spoke eloquently about the need to eliminate extreme poverty, promote inclusivity and understanding, and protect foreign aid. But, for most of their time on stage, they played high-energy musical sets that had Global Citizens on their feet and swaying to the tunes. 

Global Citizen caught these amazing performers — including Green Day, Stevie Wonder, Andra Day, Big Sean, and more — in action at the 2017 Global Citizen Festival.
