Hulu to Stream 9/11 25th Anniversary Tribute Special

Hulu will stream a live one-hour special on Friday, Sept. 11, 2026, at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET, marking 25 years since the September 11 attacks. The broadcast will be hosted live from New York City by World News Tonight anchor David Muir, Good Morning America co-anchor Robin Roberts and anchor Diane Sawyer.

The program will feature performances by Cyndi Lauper, Lainey Wilson and John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting, staged from the base of the Tribute in Light installation's beams. The public art installation has illuminated the New York City skyline every year since 2001, and the special will culminate in the city's illumination on the eve of the anniversary.
