Beyoncé, JAY-Z, Cassper Nyovest, D’banj, Ed Sheeran, Eddie Vedder, Femi Kuti, Pharrell Williams & Chris Martin, Sho Madjozi, Tiwa Savage, Usher, Wizkid — are confirmed to perform for 2 December in South Africa with world and corporate leaders to present the biggest campaign on the global goals to end extreme poverty ever.
Responding to Nelson Mandela’s call for us to be the generation to end extreme poverty, artists and leaders will be joined by 100,000 Global Citizens who’ve taken action on the Global Citizen social advocacy platform to earn their free tickets to the festival at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg.
Global Citizen Festival Mandela 100 hosts include Naomi Campbell, Bonang Matheba, Sir Bob Geldof, Gayle King, Tyler Perry, and Forest Whitaker.
And as always the case with Global Citizen festivals — tickets are free.
South Africans when they heard Beyonce is coming to Africa vs South Africans finding out the tickets are earned not bought #GlobalCitizenFestivalSA pic.twitter.com/MowGNIMMgX

Starting 21 August, all you need to do is take action on the Global Citizen platforms — GlobalCitizen.org.za.

If Beyoncè thinks I'm gonna do community service, do voluntary work, participate in NPOs and NGOs ,sell ALL my organs just so I could get a ticket for the concert then she's ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! #GlobalCitizenFestivalSA pic.twitter.com/jgOHzInR5k
