Tickets available June 25th
History repeats as Foo Fighters bring rock & roll back to live once again, this time on their Los Angeles home turf, at The Fabulous Forum — where its members are just as likely to show up in the crowd as on the stage.
On July 17th, the band will play the first full capacity concert at the iconic Forum in more than a year.
Tickets will be on sale to the public as of June 25th at 10 am PT via Ticketmaster.
When purchasing tickets, buyers will confirm for themselves and guests that they will be fully vaccinated, or will have received a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of the event. Guests will also self-attest when entering the venue that they are either fully vaccinated or have received a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of entrance.
The LA County Health Department recommends that guests wear a face covering, and will be encouraged to utilize mobile ticketing. Concessions can be purchased via mobile ordering as The Forum will be a cashless venue, with cash-to-card machines available on site.
In adherence with updated health and safety protocols set as part of the State of California and County of Los Angeles reopening plan for businesses, the Forum has undergone facility upgrades and updates, and adopted new policies and procedures that earned it Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC) STAR accreditation for its industry-leading cleaning, disinfection and infectious disease prevention practices. The Forum has worked closely with State, County and City officials to develop a comprehensive plan that prioritizes the health of everyone entering the venue.
“As we prepare to reopen the Forum to fans, the health and safety of our guests, artists and staff is our top priority,” Geni Lincoln, General Manager and Senior Vice President of Live Events at the Forum shares in a press statement. “We’re excited to welcome back fans for live music, and couldn’t be more thrilled to kick off our return with members of our Forum family, Foo Fighters!”
The Forum will be the band’s second full capacity show in California and third since COVID. Last week, the band performed at The Canyon in Agoura Hills for free. Tickets were only $26 and concertgoers were given 12 hours notice before three thousand patrons showed up to purchase all 600 tickets.
The group followed that performance later in the week with the first full capacity show in New York since March 2020 at Madison Square Garden. This historic moment marked Foo Fighters ushering in the post-COVID arena rock era with Madison Square Garden’s first concert in more than 460 days. The three hour show featured 24 songs including an appearance from Dave Chapelle for a cover of Radiohead’s “Creep.” They dedicated the performance to their late stage manager, Andy Pollard, who passed away unexpectedly two days before.
Having confirmed their appearances atop the 2021 lineups of Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo and BottleRock, Foo Fighters are returning to the road on the 25th 26th Anniversary Tour this summer. The first set of dates kick off July 28th and wrap August 9th with Redkey as support.
Also on July 17th, Dave Grohl and Co will release Hail Satin, a tribute to the Bee Gees, as The Dee Gees, on limited edition vinyl packaged in an era-appropriate rainbow mylar sleeve. The disco record is part of the second Record Store Day Drops in 2021 and features Bee Gees covers on one side and live at 606 renditions of roughly half of Foo Fighters Medicine at Midnight album.
