Hey Twin Cities Beatles fans! Get ready to twist and shout because WDGY Radio, The Original Rock & Roll Station, is thrilled to announce a special event commemorating the 60th anniversary of The Beatles' legendary Met Stadium concert and pre-show press conference!

On Sunday, August 17th, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, join us at Mall of America® (the very spot where Met Stadium once stood!) for a FREE tribute concert and a nostalgic journey back to Beatlemania!

Relive the magic as renowned Beatles tribute band A Hard Day's Night performs the iconic setlist from the 1965 concert, featuring hits like 'She’s A Woman', 'I Feel Fine', 'Ticket To Ride', 'Can’t Buy Me Love', 'A Hard Day’s Night', and 'Help!'.

A pivotal moment of The Beatles' 1965 visit was the pre-concert press conference, broadcast live on 1130 WDGY-AM. Reporters and WDGY contest winners famously peppered the Fab Four with questions (often about their hair!) that they answered into a WDGY microphone. At our celebration, you'll have a unique photo opportunity with an original WDGY microphone flag!

Plus, you will have a chance to enter to win 2 tickets to the Paul McCartney Got Back Tour on October 17th right here in Minneapolis!

This is a unique chance for fans of all ages to relive a piece of music history. Don't miss out on this unforgettable afternoon!
