Foo Fighters Reopening The Garden
• Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp. (MSG Entertainment) and Foo Fighters are making New York and music history as they welcome vaccinated fans back to the iconic venue on June 20, 2021 for the first 100% capacity concert in a New York arena since March 2020. This important moment will mark Madison Square Garden’s first concert in more than 460 days and the first 100% vaccinated event at the venue, in yet another resounding endorsement of the return of live music. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, June 11 at 10am ET.
“The Garden is ready to rock,” said James Dolan, Executive Chairman & CEO of MSG Entertainment. “We’ve been waiting for this moment for 15 months and are excited to finally welcome a packed house of roaring, fully-vaccinated Foo Fighters fans to Madison Square Garden.”
Dave Grohl echoed that sentiment, commenting, “We’ve been waiting for this day for over a year. And Madison Square Garden is going to feel that HARD. New York, get ready for a long-ass night of screaming our heads off together to 26 years of Foos.” The announcement of the June 20 MSG show follows the news of Foo Fighters’ first six U.S. dates on their 25th 26th Anniversary tour taking place later this summer.
Foo Fighters first headlined a sold-out Garden in February 2008 on their “Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace” tour, returning for another sold-out show in November 2011 on their “Wasting Light” tour. The band most recently sold out two nights at “The World’s Most Famous Arena” in July 2018, on their “Concrete and Gold” tour. Tickets will be available to the general public beginning Friday, June 11 at 10am via Ticketmaster.com and Ticketmaster Charge by Phone (1-866-858-0008). Prices range from $50.00 to $119.00.
