The US Open is getting an unforgettable musical kickoff this summer as The Lumineers take over Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens on Friday, August 21, for a one-night-only concert that blends the excitement of live music with the energy of tennis’ biggest tournament.<\/p>\n
The Grammy-nominated folk-rock band will headline the opening night of US Open Fan Week, bringing their signature sound and chart-topping hits like Ho Hey, Ophelia, Stubborn Love, Cleopatra, and Sleep on the Floor to one of New York’s most unique concert venues. Joining them for the evening will be special guest Petey USA. The show begins at 8 p.m. and will be held rain or shine thanks to Louis Armstrong Stadium’s retractable roof.<\/p>\n
While the venue is best known for hosting some of the world’s greatest tennis players, it has become an increasingly popular destination for major concerts in recent years. The intimate stadium setting gives fans a chance to experience one of today’s biggest bands in a venue much smaller than a traditional arena, making for a memorable live performance.<\/p>\n
The concert also serves as the official kickoff to US Open Fan Week, which offers fans a chance to enjoy tennis practices, qualifying matches, special events, and entertainment before the main tournament begins. Whether you’re a die-hard tennis fan, a longtime follower of The Lumineers, or simply looking for a great summer concert just outside Manhattan, this event offers the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n
