Flashforward to today (Tues Sept 3, 2024) when our State Fairgrounds will be celebrating that legendary performance, with ticket prices the same as they were back in 1960! $5 gets you in, with special floor seating for $25, Doors open at 5:00 and a special listening session of the original audio gets underway at 6:00. Then The tribute band, 1964, takes the state at 7:00 performing the original Beatles set list. They’ll then continue with The Beatles greatest hits. A few tickets still available…get ’em here: https://www.indianastatefair.com/events/2024/1964-the-tribute
