Global Citizen 2019
Description
The 8th Annual Global Citizen Festival entertained thousands of fans and passionate citizens. The day-long concert at Central Park raises money and awareness aimed towards ending extreme global poverty. The 2019 festival featured Alicia Keys, Pharrell Williams, OneRepublic, and headlining act Queen + Adam Lambert.
ATOMIC Designer Andi Blady brought a new look to the stage with updated branding and scenic elements including a scenic change. She made the new branding cohesive with the iconic Global Citizen look reworking the center stage wall, refurbishing the side screens, and adding a new header graphic with the 2019 branding. New this year, the Design and Set Construction teams worked to accommodate a quick scenic change for the finale look. They reengineered the upstage portable to be quickly removed and reveal additional video tiles for the headlining act.
It’s always an honor to work for philanthropic clients like the Global Citizen team. A big thanks to our client and partners, David Beame and the entire Global Citizen Team, DPS, and Lighting Designer Zack Guthimiller.
