More about GMA Concert Series

The concert series has its roots in the morning television program that was created by Donald L. Perris and first broadcast by ABC on November 3, 1975. The variety show, which emphasized a laidback approach to newsroom broadcast with a special focus on 'interesting stories' as well as arts and entertainment, led to a slow but steady skyrocketing of ratings for the show until the late 1990s.

Following a set of transitional troubles, with anchor changes proving unpopular with the show's audience, the show began to decline in the early 2000s. This led to a shift in strategy, including the addition of a third main anchor, Robin Roberts, alongside Charles Gibson and Dane Sawyer, as well as the introduction of the GMA Concert Series.

The first edition of the concert series, held at the same time as the show itself (07:00 am–09:00 am EDT), featured a performance by Billy Idol. Subsequent performers included artists such as Keith Urban, Jessica Simpson, Prince, Christina Aguilera, Usher, Alicia Keys, Kelly Clarkson, Kenny Chesney, and more.

The festival initially was hosted at Bryant Park in midtown Manhattan, near the New York Public Library, before eventually moving to its current location of Central Park.
