Late Show viewers got an early taste of the event on Wednesday night, when Colbert joined Pearl Jam for a rendition of Neil Young's "Keep On Rockin' in the Free World."

The Global Citizen movement aims to eradicate extreme poverty by 2030. The event is free; however, attendees must have won tickets by fulfilling an "action journey" to end extreme poverty, with tasks including calling and tweeting at world leaders, signing petitions, and participating in volunteer events.
