Former Beatle Paul McCartney to play stadium concert at Camden Yards in Baltimore this summer
The Orioles announced Friday that former Beatle Paul McCartney will play at Camden Yards on June 12.
With a cue from Orioles executive TJ Brightman, the Oriole Bird flipped the white jersey hanging in the wooden locker, revealing the name stitched on its back.
Tickets will go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Feb. 25. Presale tickets for American Express card members will be available beginning Tuesday, and tickets for Birdland Members, or those with Orioles ticket plans, will go on sale Thursday, the day before general sales begin. Team officials said they have not yet determined the number of tickets that will be set aside for Birdland Members.
The Baltimore show is part of McCartney’s Got Back tour that will kick off in April with shows on the West Coast and visit 13 U.S. cities.
“This is about creating new long-lasting memories with this ballpark that has meant so much to our city and so much to America,” said Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, who was a guest at the announcement.
