From the website:
Power To The People: John & Yoko Live in NYC is the 2026 multiscreen concert film of two massive live shows by John Lennon & Yoko Ono at Madison Square Garden, New York City on 30 August 1972, newly restored, re-edited and remixed by the Lennons’ seven-times GRAMMY®-Award winning team.

John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant's Memory and Special Guests performed these now-legendary sold-out One To One concerts to a combined audience of 40,000 people, raising over $1.5M (equivalent to $11.5M in 2026) for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They were the only full-length concerts John Lennon (with Yoko Ono) performed after leaving The Beatles.

Originally filmed by multi-camera director Steve Gebhardt in 1972, this 2026 version of the concert film is directed by Simon Hilton, edited by Ben Wainwright-Pearce and produced by Peter Worsley & Sean Ono Lennon. Music Production is by Sean Ono Lennon; mixed and engineered by Paul Hicks & Sam Gannon.

Hits performed include John's 'New York City', 'Instant Karma!', 'Imagine' and 'Mother', plus Yoko's 'Don't Worry Kyoko' and 'Open Your Box', plus rousing renditions of 'Come Together' & 'Hound Dog' and encore 'Give Peace a Chance' with special guests Stevie Wonder, Melanie and many others.

Really looking forward to this

But, let’s address the elephant in the room, will one song be missing from the concert film?

I’m assuming yes?

Is the concert film being shown in theaters a hybrid of the two concerts? I would imagine that would make for a better theatrical experience, and hopefully the two complete* concerts will be released later on blu ray .

Yes! It will include clips from both shows

Got my ticket for a screening near me on May 3!

Is there anyway the Commemorative Film Poster can be made available on the John Lennon UK store website ?
To get it direct from the USA via Trafalgar the postage is 150% more than the cost of actual poster

 

[JPGR1964]

Yes! It will include clips from both shows

Sweet. I only hope when the blu rays are released, both full shows will be available!

 

[TriK]

I got mine!!!! So excited

Got my ticket for April 29th. This is going to be epic. I've waited years for this. I still have my original Live in NYC VHS of the concert from 1989. Sadly, I can no longer play it because I no longer have a VHS player. I hope POWER TO THE PEOPLE will be released on dvd or blu-ray! As a side note, I have my POWER TO THE PEOPLE hand drawn sign ready for this Saturday's NO KINGS protest! I urge all of you who are against the illegitimate war in Iran to attend a protest near you!

If Melanie's there, I'm there !
