Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. has announced a “thank you” campaign encouraging all New Yorkers to thank the New York City Police Department for their service to the city.

The initiative includes the “Thank You, NYPD” concert, which will be open exclusively to uniformed officers and civilian employees of the NYPD and their families. The event will take place on March 28 at Madison Square Garden.

“Thank You, NYPD” will feature performances by music legends John Fogerty and Cyndi Lauper, rapper Fat Joe, comedians Chris Distefano and Sam Morril, and more, with appearances by celebrities, athletes, business leaders and other prominent New York figures.

MSG Entertainment is providing The Garden rent free and is donating all production and operating costs. More than 15,000 attendees, including NYPD officers and employees from across the five boroughs and their loved ones, will be invited to “Thank You, NYPD” as guests of Madison Square Garden.

“I am happy to show my appreciation for the brave members of the NYPD by performing at this MSG event,” Lauper said. “We are all New Yorkers, and the NYPD is such an important part of our community. I am a lifelong New Yorker, and we’re at our best when we are supporting each other. I hope my fellow New Yorkers join me in saying Thank You to the NYPD and their families.”
