Another day, another incredible musical festival.

Coming together to implement a call-to-action to help end extreme poverty, musical stars from all over the world brought their talents to the 2015 Global Citizen Festival in New York City on Saturday.

Shutting down the Great Lawn in Central Park, Beyoncé (amongst many others), delivered a forceful set of hits including “Crazy In Love,” “Who Run The World,” ” Flawless,” and “Single Ladies.” Calling on talented guitarist and singer Ed Sheeran for an acoustic version of “Drunk In Love,” Beyoncé told the crowd, “I want to bring out someone I respect so much.”

In addition to the aforementioned, she joined Pearl Jam for a duet of Bob Marley and The Wailers’ classic hit, “Redemption Song,” and introduced the FLOTUS on stage for her speech to the crowd.

Take a look at some of Mrs. Carter’s moments from the live show below:
