On Saturday, December 12, PETA will mark its 40th anniversary with a virtual, star-studded party to celebrate the group’s four decades of victories for animals and honor the celebrities who have helped make them happen with Humanitarian Awards.

When:    Saturday, December 12, 8 p.m. ET

Where:    Livestream link available upon request

The event will also include special appearances by Sir Paul McCartney, Joaquin Phoenix, Alec Baldwin, Casey Affleck, Dolly Parton, Pamela Anderson, and Bill Maher.

“Forty years ago, car companies used pigs as crash-test dummies and people thought a vegan was someone from Las Vegas,” says PETA President Ingrid Newkirk. “Today, animals in laboratories are being replaced with supercomputers and organs-on-chips, fur is dead, elephants are out of the circus, and the ‘Tiger King’ is in jail.”
