South African superstar Tyla singing \u201cWater\u201d mesmerized this crowd of over 60,000 on the Great Lawn.<\/p>\n

This is the 13th annual Global Citizen Festival, featuring headliners like Cardi B and Shakira, with Hugh Jackman as the host.<\/p>\n

Many attendees were excited to see Mariah the Scientist in person.<\/p>\n

The tickets are free.<\/p>\n

All those in attendance are said to have supported the Global Citizen\u2019s mission to end extreme poverty, defend the Earth from climate change, and demand equal access to nutritious food worldwide.<\/p>\n

Many of those volunteering started really young, like 13-year-old Samara Osae-Asare from the Parkchester section of the Bronx.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have to earn points by doing humanitarian work,\u201d Osae-Asare told PIX11 News.<\/p>\n

Many of those in attendance traveled great distances to be here, like Mateus Ferrer from Brazil and Mia Abdallah from Lebanon.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s fantastic being here for people to come together to raise awareness about so many issues like the Amazon,\u201d Ferrer, a Global Citizen, told PIX11 News.<\/p>\n

Mia Abdallah, another global citizen, agreed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is so great seeing all these cultures coming together,\u201d Abdallah told PIX11 News.<\/p>\n
