(CNN)It's a concert to mark the resilience of a city.
Some of music's biggest names will descend on the Great Lawn at New York City's iconic Central Park for the "We Love NYC: The Homecoming Concert" on Saturday to perform for a vaccinated crowd of 60,000.
The concert is meant to be "a celebration of New York City's comeback" after a challenging 17 months marked by the Covid-19 pandemic and will "promote health, safety, and equity," according to a press release for the show.
The event, which is being aired exclusively on CNN, is produced by legendary music executive Clive Davis in coordination with the city of New York and Live Nation. The coverage begins with a pre-show hosted by Anderson Cooper at 4 p.m. ET, with the concert kicking off at 5pm.

There will be some surprise performers taking the stage as well.

About 80% of the tickets for the event were distributed free of charge. With Covid-19 cases on the rise due to the Delta variant, all attendees who are age 12 or over must present proof of Covid-19 vaccination.
