The Rush Hour star was joined by Andy Lau, actor Donnie Yen and other Asian performers for the three-hour benefit in Hong Kong's Victoria Park on Friday, reported Contactmusic.
The 56-year-old actor and filmmaker opened the show by calling for a moment of silence to honour the thousands who lost their lives in the March 11 tragedy.
Chan then led the performers in a rendition of peace anthem Succumb Not to Sorrow, based on a poem by Kenji Miyazawa.
Soul star Lionel Richie also made an appearance via a video recording, offering a rendition of his hit Say You, Say Me from a stage in Australia, where he is on tour.
"We believe you can survive this and you will get stronger," he said.
Chan made a rare singing performance, belting out the tune Believe in Yourself.
Proceeds from Friday's concert will benefit the Salvation Army.
