Legendary Beatle Sir Paul McCartney has officially announced the 2025 leg of his highly anticipated ‘Got Back Tour’, thrilling fans across North America with a fresh set of concert dates. Among the stops on this extensive tour, McCartney is slated to perform in Buffalo, New York—his first appearance in the city in over a decade. The announcement has already sparked a wave of excitement, as fans young and old look forward to experiencing the magic of McCartney live once again.
The ‘Got Back Tour’ initially launched in 2022 as a triumphant return to live performances following the COVID-19 pandemic, and it received overwhelming acclaim for its energy, nostalgia, and technical brilliance. Now in its third iteration, the 2025 edition of the tour promises an even more ambitious production, combining McCartney’s timeless catalog of Beatles hits, Wings classics, and solo material with cutting-edge visuals and state-of-the-art sound design. The Buffalo show is scheduled to take place at Highmark Stadium on July 30, and tickets are expected to sell out quickly.
In a statement released with the tour announcement, McCartney expressed his excitement about returning to the road. “We had such an amazing time on the last run, and I can’t wait to be back out playing for the fans again. Buffalo, we’re coming to rock with you!” The 82-year-old music icon continues to defy expectations with his stamina and passion for performing, maintaining a rigorous touring schedule that puts many younger artists to shame.
Buffalo’s local officials and tourism board have already begun preparing for the influx of visitors expected for the concert. With fans coming in from across the region—and some traveling internationally—hotels, restaurants, and venues in the city are bracing for one of the busiest weekends of the summer. “Paul McCartney’s concert is a huge win for Buffalo,” said Mayor Byron Brown. “This event will not only bring joy to thousands of fans but also boost our city’s economy.”
The tour announcement comes on the heels of renewed interest in The Beatles, sparked in part by the 2023 release of the AI-assisted track “Now and Then,” widely promoted as the final Beatles song. McCartney played a key role in completing the track, which reignited global fascination with the Fab Four’s enduring legacy. Many fans are hoping he’ll include it in his setlist alongside hits like “Hey Jude,” “Let It Be,” and “Band on the Run.”
As fans eagerly await the opening of ticket sales later this month, anticipation is running high. Social media is already buzzing with posts and countdowns from McCartney devotees across the globe. With this new chapter of the ‘Got Back Tour’, Paul McCartney continues to cement his status as one of the greatest living performers in music history—an artist whose influence spans generations and whose shows are nothing short of unforgettable.
