A Historic Concert from Vatican City, Co-Directed by Pharrell Williams and Maestro Andrea Bocelli, to Stream Live Exclusively on Disney+, Hulu, and ABC News Live September 13

A landmark cultural and spiritual event in the heart of Vatican City, will stream live exclusively on Disney+, Hulu, and ABC News Live beginning September 13 @ 3PM ET / 12PM PT. Co-directed by Pharrell Williams and Andrea Bocelli, this once-in-a-generation concert will be held in St. Peter’s Square for the first time in history. Supported by the Vatican, the event marks the closing of the third World Meeting on Human Fraternity and the celebration of the 2025 Jubilee Year.

“On the evening of 13 September, fraternity will take center stage, expressed through the universal language of music and the stories of those who have made it a life’s choice,” said Cardinal Mauro Gambetti, O.F.M. “Concrete words and actions shall be proposed to be brought into our communities, so that fraternity does not remain a mere idea, but becomes a choice that transforms reality.”

“This is a rare cultural moment where the world stops and collectively tunes in. It is a message of unity and grace for all of humanity,” said Pharrell Williams.

“Let us shine a spotlight on humanity with music from the very heart of Christianity and the most important spiritual square, reaching the entire world with a single message of brotherhood and peace,” said Maestro Andrea Bocelli.

Designed as a moment of global unity, the event will bring together music, reflection, and visual storytelling in a singular live experience. Executive produced by Pharrell Williams, Maestro Andrea Bocelli, Nova Sky Stories, Something in the Water, Solina Chau, Mark and Roma Burnett, and Kimbal Musk, with musical direction by Adam Blackstone, the celebration will be open to the public in Rome, with the broadcast produced by Jesse Collins Entertainment and directed by Sam Wrench, while streaming live globally across Disney+, Hulu, and ABC News Live.

The concert features a world-class lineup of performers and speakers, including:

Live musical performances by Pharrell Williams with the Voices of Fire Gospel Choir, Maestro Andrea Bocelli, Karol G, John Legend, Clipse, Teddy Swims, Jelly Roll, Angélique Kidjo, additional international choristers, and more.

A spectacular aerial drone and light show by Nova Sky Stories, featuring imagery inspired by the Sistine Chapel.

Reflections from world leaders in culture, diplomacy, and sport.

The event joins the growing lineup of live events on Disney+ and Hulu, and alongside ABC News Live, these streaming platforms are bringing audiences around the globe together for a monumental cultural and musical experience.
