After teasing the concept last month, New York City’s homecoming mega-concert has revealed a few of its headlining performers, including Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon and Jennifer Hudson.

“This is going to be one of the greatest Central Park concerts in history,” Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a Thursday, July 1 press conference. “This is something for the ages.”

The show will be booked by Clive Davis, who previously said the show would enlist “eight ‘iconic’ stars to perform a three-hour show for 60,000 attendees and a worldwide television audience.”

The date of the show has yet to be revealed.
