Disney+, Hulu, and ABC News Sept. 8 announced additional artists have been added to the historic concert from Vatican City, “Grace for the World,” which will be live streamed globally on Disney+, Hulu and ABC News Live at 3 p.m. ET on Sept. 13, with a replay available after the event on Disney+ only.

Jennifer Hudson and BamBam join the lineup of live performances by Pharrell Williams with the Voices of Fire Gospel Choir, Maestro Andrea Bocelli, John Legend, Karol G, Clipse, Teddy Swims, Jelly Roll, The Choir of the Diocese of Rome led by Maestro Marco Frisina, and Angélique Kidjo, plus an international choir assembled for the occasion with musical direction by Adam Blackstone. An aerial drone and light show by Nova Sky Stories, featuring imagery inspired by the Sistine Chapel, will further enhance the show.

Live from the heart of Vatican City at St. Peter’s Square, this historic event marks the first time that a concert will be staged in this significant setting. 

The performance will both celebrate the 2025 Jubilee year and mark the closing of the third World Meeting on Human Fraternity, a conference held by the Fratelli Tutti Foundation consisting of two days of spiritual and cultural initiatives. With support from the Vatican, the concert will bring together music, reflection, and visual storytelling. 

The event joins the growing lineup of live events on Disney+ and Hulu.

Attendance at the concert in Vatican City is free and open to all.
