Forest Hills Tennis Stadium
New York, NY
July 26-27, 2017
On August 28 & 29, 1964, The Beatles played two shows at the Forest Hills Tennis Stadium. Tickets for both shows were sold out, and the 15,983 screaming fans were kept from the stage by an eight-foot high fence topped with barbed wire. The Fab Four arrived by helicopter and played their standard 12-song set from the ’64 U.S. tour.
53 years later, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers walked onto the same stage at the recently revived former home of the U.S. Open for two sold-out mid-summer shows, soaking in a standing ovation from 16,000-plus Heartbreaker fans that felt positively Beatle-worthy. You couldn’t wipe the grins off the stage if you tried.
We’re headed back to Philadelphia, the final show of the third leg of the 40thAnniversary tour!
