Lauryn Hill & Wyclef Jean Lead 2026 Global Citizen Festival Lineup

Central Park is about to get a serious dose of star power!

The 2026 ‘Global Citizen Festival‘ has unveiled its first wave of performers, with Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean set to reunite on the Great Lawn to celebrate 30 years of the Fugees’ iconic album ‘The Score.’

Full story below…

Joining them on the September 26 bill are Lenny Kravitz, John Legend, Lainey Wilson, Shaboozey and K-pop sensations TOMORROW X TOGETHER.

Hosted by Hugh Jackman, the festival will also feature appearances from Rachel Brosnahan and Gayle King, with more names still to come.

This comes on the heels of Hill and Jean’s ‘Diaspora Calling‘ show in the UK, where they kickstarted their ‘The Score’ anniversary celebrations.

And there’s a catch: you can’t simply purchase your way in. Fans must complete an action journey through the Global Citizen app to earn points before entering the free ticket lottery, or, while supplies last, make a $25 charitable donation to secure entry.
