Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees Foreigner will bring their 50th Anniversary Tour to Beaver Dam Amphitheater this fall, marking what organizers are calling “one of the largest and most anticipated concerts in the venue’s history.”
The one-night-only performance is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 26, at Beaver Dam Amphitheater as part of the First United Bank & Trust Concert Series. Artist fan club and venue presales begin Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 10 a.m. CT, with public ticket sales opening Friday, Feb. 27 at 10 a.m. CT.
Concert promoter Heath Eric, president and CEO of The Eric Group, said the show represents a major milestone for the venue and the region.
“This is a landmark event for Beaver Dam Amphitheater and for music fans across the entire region,” said Eric. “Hosting FOREIGNER’s 50th Anniversary Tour speaks to how far The DAM has come as a destination for major live entertainment. This will be one of the defining nights of our season and an unforgettable experience for thousands of fans.”
Beaver Dam Mayor Paul Sandefur said events of this scale bring significant benefits to the community.
“Events of this caliber bring tremendous energy and economic impact to our community,” said Sandefur. “We welcome visitors from across Kentucky and surrounding states, and concerts like this showcase Beaver Dam as a vibrant destination while supporting local businesses and tourism throughout the region.”
