Jon Stewart and Pete Davidson are set to host a one-night 9/11 charity comedy event at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The show, titled “NYC Still Rising After 25 Years: A 9/11 Comedy Benefit,” is scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 10, on the eve of the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Multiple outlets report that proceeds from the event will be directed to 9/11-related charities.
The program is presented as an all-star lineup. Reported performers include Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, Aziz Ansari, Nikki Glaser, and Ronny Chieng, with additional talent also listed by some sources. Live Nation is reported as being involved with the event’s production. This marks a return for Stewart and Davidson as they re-team for a follow-up to an earlier “NYC Still Rising” benefit tied to the 9/11 anniversary.
