The final concert of three will air live in theaters nationwide
Fans can experience Dead & Company like never before with a special one-night-only IMAX live concert event, streaming directly from Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. The group will perform three nights in their hometown from August 1-3 to celebrate the Grateful Dead’s 60th anniversary. The August 3rd performance will be shown in 30 IMAX theaters nationwide, giving fans the chance to experience the legendary performance on the biggest screen possible.
Doors open at 5:30 pm PT, with the concert running from 6-10 pm PT with a 30-minute intermission. Each attendee will also receive a collectible mini poster and lanyard. Tickets are available via IMAX.
Fans can look forward to an incredible series of performances, featuring unique sets by Dead & Company each of the three nights. Each night will begin with up to 75-minute special guest sets from Billy Strings on Friday, August 1st, Sturgill “Johnny Blue Skies” Simpson on Saturday, August 2nd, and Trey Anastasio Band on Sunday, August 3rd.
Dead & Company was founded in 2015 by Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, John Mayer and Bobby Weir. The band also features Jeff Chimenti, Oteil Burbridge and Jay Lane. The band last performed in San Francisco in July 2023 with three sold-out concerts at Oracle Park, the home of the San Francisco Giants baseball team. Those shows drew an audience of over 118,000 fans across three nights, bringing thousands of visitors to the Bay Area, and making a tremendous impact on the local economy. According to Destinations International’s Event Impact Calculator, the Total Estimated Direct Spend for that weekend was $21 million, and the Total Estimated Economic Impact was $30.9 million.
