The 39-date 12-country odyssey concluding with a triumphant sold-out show at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles—a performance which instantly attained legendary status, generating rave reviews and best of 2019 accolades including:

 

“… Wow. After several decades now of writing about music and facing the perpetual challenge of translating what is beyond words into understandable language, that’s the best I can muster. Here in the heady aftermath of Paul McCartney’s final show of his Freshen Up tour at Dodger Stadium along with 50,000 of my fellow Angelenos on July 13, 2019 — Wow.” ~ American Songwriter

 

“The perfect display of the philosophy McCartney has embodied over his 60-year career in music… the perfect bow to tie up the perfect show, with the final lyric of the night an ever-appropriate one: ‘And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.” ~ Billboard

 

“Macca continues to put artists half his age and younger to shame with epic shows featuring his crackerjack band and a jukebox of hits.” ~ Entertainment Weekly Best Live Music Performances of 2019.

 

“The best thing about a McCartney show is how many generations of people leave with the broadest smile upon their face. Whether it’s the first time they’ve seen him or the tenth, he never, ever disappoints.” ~ Flaunt

 

“McCartney was in top form, his voice effortlessly climbing to the heights it always hit so easily back in the day…” ~ The Los Angeles Times

 

“The total and complete immersion into Macca Land was colorful and loud, rocking and rolling, nostalgic and present, and, above all, in the truest sense, marvelous… And, in the end, the love McCartney has taken for 60 years was equal to the love he’s made for generations.” ~ Relix

 

“Definitely we’re amazed by Paul McCartney’s blowout Dodger Stadium Show… McCartney remains a show-stopping entertainer of the highest order.” ~ Variety

 

With songs like “Hey Jude” “Live and Let Die,” “Band on the Run,” “Let It Be” and so many more, the McCartney live experience is everything any music lover could ever want from a rock show. Expect hours of the greatest moments from the last 60 years of music—dozens of songs from McCartney’s solo work, Wings, and of course, Beatles catalogs, which have formed the soundtracks of our lives. McCartney and his band have performed in an unparalleled range of venues and locations throughout the Americas, the U.K., Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and all points in between, including outside the Coliseum in Rome, Moscow’s Red Square, Buckingham Palace, The White House, a free show in Mexico for over 400,000 people, the closing show at San Francisco’s Candlestick Park where The Beatles played their final concert in 1966, a 2016 weeklong visit in the California desert that included two headline sets at the historic Desert Trip Festival and a jam-packed club gig for a few hundred lucky fans at Pappy & Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace, and a one-time performance broadcast live into space.

About Camping World Stadium

Camping World Stadium is owned and operated by the City of Orlando. Since opening in 1936 as a Works Progress Administration project by President Franklin D. Roosevelt at a cost of $115,000 and a capacity of 8,900, the stadium has undergone numerous expansions and name changes over the years. The historic venue underwent a massive $207.7 million reconstruction in 2014, which yielded 90% all-new construction and a completely modernized stadium. Its sustainable design achieved a LEED Silver Certification for new construction from the U.S. Green Building Council. In 2021, the stadium underwent an additional $60 million in construction upgrades and enhancements that included adding approximately 3,800 permanent seats on the North Plaza deck, creating a new premium Club Level on the east and west sides and installing more restrooms and concession areas for general admission. The continued investment has bolstered Camping World Stadium's ability to draw high-profile events like neutral-site college football games, the NFL Pro Bowl, WrestleMania, Monster Jam World Finals and big-name concerts while retaining its signature annual bowl games and events.
