McCartney will be coming to Hamilton on Nov. 21 as part of his Got Back Tour, which includes 18 other stops, the venue announced Thursday. Hamilton is the only other Canadian city included on the tour aside from Montreal, where McCartney will play two shows. In a news release, TD Coliseum General Manager Nick DeLuco said the performance will mark a 'bold new chapter' for the 18,000-seat sports and entertainment venue and speaks to the calibre of acts they're planning to host. 'Opening night deserves something extraordinary, and it doesn't get any better than Paul McCartney,' DeLuco said in a statement. The venue said McCartney will deliver a 'high-energy, career-spanning set filled with iconic hits and inspiring music.'

Paul McCartney to open Hamilton's renovated TD Coliseum
Paul McCartney will be the first to give Hamilton's renovated TD Coliseum a test drive. The former Beatle will officially re-open the downtown facility on Nov. 21 as part of his Got Back Tour. 'Opening night deserves something extraordinary, and it doesn't get any better than Paul McCartney,' said Nick DeLuco, the arena's general manager. 'This show marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for TD Coliseum and speaks volumes about the calibre of events we will bring to the region. We're excited for the future in Hamilton.' It's the only southern Ontario stop on his Got Back tour and his first stop in Canada since playing Vancouver in 2019. Tickets go on sale July 18 at 10 a.m. McCartney was last here in 2016 as part of his One On One Tour when he played a 39-song, three-hour set that included a special appearance by the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders pipe band. It was his only other Hamilton show. In addition to announcing the concert, Oak View Group pointed out that Go Train service from West Harbour Station to Union Station will be running after the event. This is significant because it aligns with what OVG has long been saying that TD Coliseum will be seen as a secondary major venue for the Greater Toronto Area market. OVG had previously announced concerts by Andrea Bocelli (Dec. 9) and Brad Paisley (Dec. 12). Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request. There was a problem with the recaptcha.
