NEW YORK – New York City’s Madison Square Garden is ready to rock again.

MSG Entertainment announced Tuesday that Foo Fighters will shake the famed arena with a concert on June 20 – the venue’s first show in more than 460 days.

MSG said the concert for vaccinated audience members will be its first at 100% capacity since the pandemic. Tickets go on sale Friday.

“We’ve been waiting for this day for over a year," Dave Grohl said in a statement. ”And Madison Square Garden is going to feel that HARD.“

Foo Fighters, who first headlined the Garden in 2008, last played at the venue in 2018.
