Back by popular demand!

Join us once again at the George Seuffert Bandshell inside Forest Park in Woodhaven, Queens for another early autumn evening of live Beatles music, all performed in their original keys.

Last year's show was such an overwhelming success at the Bandshell, that NYC Councilwoman Joann Ariola, Susan Agin at the Queens Culture & Arts Network (QCAN), and NYC Parks & Recreation have joined forces once again, to bring our show back this year.

FREE admission!

No chairs needed. There is plenty of bench seating available. Free and easy parking adjacent to the bandshell. Lots of room for dancing in front of the stage.

5:00 PM to 7:00 PM

This is an outdoor show, so it's weather permitting.
