It’s a joint effort made to help solve all the problems of the world.

Renowned personalities participating from Mumbai include megastar Amitabh Bachchan, spiritual leader Sadhguru, actors Anil Kapoor, Farhan Akhtar, Hrithik Roshan, Ayushmann Khurrana, Arjun Kapoor, Ananya Panday, Bhumi Pednekar, Janhvi Kapoor, Dia Mirza, Kiara Advani, Riteish Deshmukh, Sara Ali Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, and musicians Badshah, Amit Trivedi, Ajay- Atul and Tanishk Bagchi.

The event will be held at the Gateway of India. Aaditya Thackeray, Minister of Tourism and Environment, Maharashtra, said the Global Citizen Festival would boost awareness about climate change.

He said they When it comes to climate change, we are running out of time to reverse the damage caused. He is confident that the Global Citizen Festival will steer a mass movement on the world stage to fight climate change now. Global Citizen and Wizcraft first collaborated in 2016 for the Global Citizen Festival India in Mumbai.

Recently, the organizations also came together for Vax Live: The Concert to Reunite the World, which urged global citizens to support people when the COVID-19 cases were on the rise in India in April.

Five years ago, the Global Citizen’s banner held its first festival in Mumbai. They were amazed at the reaction and warm reception they received from the hundreds of thousands of global citizens, Mumbai and the state of Maharashtra. Global Citizens across India are an essential part of the movement, and they are proud to return to Mumbai for Global Citizen Live, said Liza Henshaw, COO, Global Citizen.

Andre Timmins, Co-Founder of Wizcraft, said they are thrilled and honored to work with the Global Citizen team again.
