At 83 years old, McCartney continues to captivate audiences worldwide with his energetic performances.

The upcoming concert is expected to feature a setlist filled with iconic hits that span six decades. Fans can look forward to classic Beatles songs like “Hey Jude” and “Let It Be,” along with memorable tracks from his time with Wings such as “Band on the Run” and “Live and Let Die.” McCartney will also play selections from his extensive solo catalog, ensuring a diverse musical experience for attendees.
McCartney’s live performances have consistently been described as both nostalgic and vital. Critics have noted the experience as a “religious experience” because of the joy he brings to his audiences. His concerts are characterized by a unique energy that creates an atmosphere of celebration, with fans returning time and again to revel in the music.
During his tours, McCartney is accompanied by a talented band, which includes Paul “Wix” Wickens on keyboards, Brian Ray on bass and guitar, Rusty Anderson on guitar, and Abe Laboriel on drums.
