A month after declaring they’d play a last ever show at an undecided New York City location to benefit local public television stations Thirteen/WNET and WLIW New York, The Police have announced the venue and—surprise, surprise—it’s Madison Square Garden.
The show is scheduled for Aug. 6th—with opening act The B-52s—and tickets go on sale this Saturday, June 14th. The twist: tickets can be obtained only as donations to the aforementioned stations and will be available for “$150, $350, $500 and $750. There is also a $5000 package featuring access to soundcheck, and a $2000 combo with prime seats and a private pre-show party,” according to Billboard. A future broadcast and/or CD/DVD release has not yet been confirmed.
