Infromation
Announced by Global Citizen exactly one year before the planned date. Muse were set to be one of the headliners of the 2020 Global Citizen festival called Global Goal Live: The Possible Dream.

According to Declan Kelly, CEO of Teneo and one of the organisers, the event would be "the largest event of scale ever held in human history". Other acts who were set perform at the festival include Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Queen, Billie Eilish, Lizzo, Coldplay and more. The concerts were set to be hosted by Deborra-Lee Furness, Hugh Jackman, Idris Elba, Jill Vedder, Trevor Noah and Katie Holmes.
In May of 2020, Global Citizen announced that all major events (including the Global Citizen Festival) would be postponed until September 25th, 2021[4] The 2020 European event, which Muse were set to play, was supposed to take place in Berlin, Germany, according to Matt Bellamy.[5]
