Comedians Jon Stewart and Pete Davidson are commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in a big way — by hosting a comedy benefit in New York City with proceeds going to various 9/11 charities.
“We wanted to put on a fun celebration to honor this great city’s resilience,” the two funnymen said in a joint statement regarding the show, which will take place Sept. 12 at Madison Square Garden, Variety reported. “It’s nice to be able to do this with friends and people we love.”
The comedy commemoration, entitled “NYC Still Rising After 20 Years: A Comedy Celebration,” will feature an all-star lineup of comics, including Amy Schumer, Bill Burr, Colin Jost, Colin Quinn, Dave Attell, Dave Chappelle, Jay Pharoah, Jimmy Fallon, John Mulaney, Michael Che, Ronny Chieng, Tom Segura and Wanda Sykes.
