The Amazon rainforest—the “lungs of the Earth”—is about to witness a different kind of breath-taking energy this November. On November 1, 2025, the Global Citizen Festival Amazonia will take center stage in Belém, Brazil, uniting music, activism, and global consciousness. At the heart of it all stands Chris Martin, the legendary frontman of Coldplay, who is set to deliver a performance that promises not only to electrify audiences but also to inspire action for one of the most critical causes on the planet—saving the Amazon and protecting our shared future.

A Celebration With a Purpose
Global Citizen, known for its mission to end extreme poverty and advocate for climate justice, is bringing the festival to the Amazon for the very first time. This move reflects a powerful message: that protecting the environment begins with protecting the world’s most vital ecosystems.
Belém, often referred to as the “gateway to the Amazon,” will serve as the perfect backdrop for this monumental event. Surrounded by rivers, rainforests, and a deep cultural history rooted in Indigenous traditions, it’s a location rich in symbolism. And with Chris Martin—a passionate environmental advocate and musical visionary—leading the charge, expectations are sky-high.
“Music has always had the power to bring people together,” Martin shared in a statement ahead of the event. “But what makes this performance special is the chance to use that power to shine a light on something that affects all of us—the health of our planet.”

Chris Martin: More Than a Musician
Chris Martin’s involvement in the Global Citizen movement is nothing new. In fact, he’s been the festival’s curator since 2015, helping to shape lineups and partnerships that balance entertainment with meaningful impact. Under his influence, Global Citizen events have become a meeting ground for world leaders, environmental activists, and global audiences driven by change.
For Martin, music is not merely performance—it’s activism in melody. Coldplay’s ongoing “Music of the Spheres World Tour” has already been lauded as one of the most sustainable in history. From using kinetic dance floors that generate electricity to solar-powered stages and eco-friendly confetti, the band has redefined what it means to tour responsibly.
At Global Citizen Festival Amazonia, Martin is expected to bring that same ethos. Sources close to the event hint that his set will include fan favorites such as “Viva La Vida,” “Fix You,” and “A Sky Full of Stars”, reimagined with stunning visuals inspired by the colors and life of the rainforest.

Uniting Music and Environmental Activism
Global Citizen Festival Amazonia isn’t just about music—it’s a call to action. The event will highlight issues such as deforestation, Indigenous rights, biodiversity loss, and climate change, urging world leaders and corporations to commit to measurable goals that protect the Amazon Basin.
“The Amazon is not just Brazil’s concern; it’s the world’s,” said Hugh Evans, co-founder and CEO of Global Citizen. “Bringing artists like Chris Martin to perform in Belém is a way to bridge the global and the local—to connect hearts with action.”
In addition to Martin’s headlining performance, the festival will feature appearances by Brazilian artists, Indigenous leaders, and environmental advocates. The stage itself is said to be constructed from reclaimed and biodegradable materials, designed to leave zero waste after the event concludes.
Belém: The Heart of the Amazonian Awakening
Hosting such an event in Belém is more than symbolic—it’s transformational. The city, long recognized as a cultural and economic hub of the northern region, is stepping into the global spotlight. The festival is expected to draw tens of thousands of attendees in person and millions more via live stream across the world.
Local organizers have emphasized the importance of inclusion, ensuring that Indigenous voices and communities are represented not only onstage but in the planning and execution of the festival itself.
“Bringing the Global Citizen Festival here shows that the Amazon is not a distant story—it’s a living, breathing part of humanity,” said Maria Silva, an Indigenous rights advocate based in Pará. “Having Chris Martin perform here brings attention to the people who protect this land every day.”

A Night of Emotion and Hope
While details of Martin’s exact setlist remain under wraps, insiders suggest he will open his performance with “Paradise”, a fitting tribute to the natural beauty of the Amazon. Expect powerful collaborations too—rumors swirl about guest appearances from Brazilian icons like Anitta, Caetano Veloso, or Liniker, fusing global pop with Brazilian soul.
Visual elements are also expected to play a huge role. Drone light shows mimicking the constellations above the rainforest canopy, holographic projections of endangered species, and immersive soundscapes created from actual rainforest sounds will all blend into what one organizer called “a symphony of planet Earth.”
Martin is known for crafting performances that are emotional journeys rather than concerts. His stage presence—equal parts humility, energy, and sincerity—makes every note feel personal. Combined with the powerful message of the Amazon’s preservation, this performance could easily become one of the defining cultural moments of 2025.

The Power of Collective Action
Global Citizen Festival Amazonia is not just a concert—it’s a movement of accountability. Through its digital platforms, the festival invites fans to take tangible actions—sign petitions, send messages to policymakers, and make pledges to support sustainable initiatives. Every action earns “points,” which can even be exchanged for tickets to the event, reinforcing the idea that change is participatory.
Chris Martin has often spoken about the relationship between music and moral responsibility. “We can’t just sing about the world we want,” he once said. “We have to build it.” His performance in Belém will embody that philosophy—a melody of hope sung for the forests, the rivers, and the future generations who will inherit them.

Looking Ahead
The Global Citizen Festival Amazonia marks a turning point—not just for the organization, but for how the world views environmental advocacy. It’s a reminder that art and action are intertwined, and that one song, one voice, or one event can ignite global momentum.
As the sun sets over the Amazon River on November 1, and Chris Martin steps onto the stage, millions will watch and listen—not just to his music, but to the message echoing through every lyric: that the time to protect our planet is now.
Whether you’re a Coldplay fan, an environmentalist, or simply a believer in the power of unity, the Global Citizen Festival Amazonia promises to be more than a concert—it will be a historic celebration of humanity’s bond with nature.
And when the final chords of “Fix You” fade into the warm night air of Belém, one truth will remain clear: Chris Martin isn’t just lighting up the stage—he’s helping light the way toward a more sustainable world.
