In its 9th year, the VIGIL was inspired by the United Nations’ 2001 Resolution 55/282 designating September 21st of each year as an “International Day of Peace”, and to have the entire world observe a full day of “global ceasefire and nonviolence.”

The September Concert is a global day of free concerts for peace, every September 11th, organized by individuals, schools, businesses, and associations

The September Concert was born in 2002 on the first anniversary of 9/11. Since then, on each anniversary our message of peace through music has spread further and further.
