A 20th-anniversary edition of the veterans’ fundraiser Stand Up for Heroes is scheduled for Nov. 9 in New York City, with Bruce Springsteen performing and multiple comedians taking part. Sources report that Jon Stewart and Hasan Minhaj will provide comedy, alongside additional comedy acts.
The event is described as an annual fundraiser supporting injured veterans and their families and is presented by the Bob Woodruff Foundation and the New York Comedy Festival. One outlet places the show at David Geffen Hall, while another describes it as taking place at Lincoln Center, both locations in the same broader venue complex in Manhattan.
Other differences among outlets are in the listing of supporting performers. In addition to Springsteen, Stewart, and Minhaj, Billboard and the Hollywood Reporter include Alex Warren, Josh Johnson, and “The Resilient,” while other summaries emphasize the headline acts. Overall, the sources consistently confirm the date, the New York location, and the presence of Springsteen, Stewart, and Minhaj for the milestone fundraiser.
