The Zac Brown Band will perform June 21 at the Queens site, the stadium announced Friday. Tickets go on sale March 22. More concerts will be announced at a later date.
The stadium’s prime ended in 1978 when the U.S. Open tournament moved 3 miles away to Flushing Meadows. It has hosted iconic acts including Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Barbra Streisand, Frank Sinatra and Bob Dylan.
The 16,000-seat stadium is entering the second phase of a multimillion dollar renovation project, which includes new seating.
