Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are set for a rare onstage reunion in 2027 for Joe Walsh‘s VetsAid music festival. The two Beatles will join Eagles’ guitarist Joe Walsh for a special performance at his VetsAid music festival at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena on Jan. 29.
McCartney and Starr last performed together during Macca’s final Got Back concert in December 2024 in London. Starr appeared for that show’s finale and provided drums for “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” and “Helter Skelter.”
“Give it up. I’m off now, but I’ve had a great night,” Starr said at the time. “It’s fantastic, playing with me old mate, but there comes a time when we’ve got to go home. All that remains to be said, I’ll see you next time.” That next time appears to be here.
“Having spent the past two years at the Sphere and working with the hardworking people of Las Vegas, I want to show them my gratitude and respect,” Walsh said in a statement. “This city has taken such good care of me and my family that it would be my privilege to give back to the large veteran community here and to their families.”
Walsh also hinted at more special appearances. “Join me on stage with my musical heroes Paul and Ringo (and more surprise guests),” he said. “Support our veterans and support each other.” The rest of the current lineup boasts performances from the Killers, the War on Drugs, St. Vincent, and Lucius.
Tickets for VetsAid 2027 go on sale this Friday, Nov. 13 at 10:00 a.m. PT via AXS. Sans taxes and fees, tickets will cost $200, but veterans have access to exclusive tickets and pricing. All net proceeds from the festival will go toward veteran-related charities coordinated with the Combined Arms Institute. More information is available at the VetsAid official website.
Starr released his 22nd solo album, Long Long Road, this spring. Around the same time, McCartney released his 20th solo album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, which included the Starr-studded song “Home to Us.”
