The Beach Boys have announced they will perform a special 60th‑anniversary concert in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, on June 19, 2026. The band will salute the 60th anniversary of their Pet Sounds album, performing material from the 1966 record as part of their 60th‑anniversary tour.
Led by Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, the group is visiting the city to mark six decades since Pet Sounds was first released in 1966. Tickets go on general sale on 13 February 2026, the organisers say, and will be available via The Halls Wolverhampton website and official ticketing partners (for example, Ticketmaster and AXS).
Local leaders expect the show to bring many visitors to the area: Wolverhampton City Council has projected that roughly 35% of the audience could come from outside the immediate West Midlands, a boost that is expected to help local hotels, bars and restaurants over the summer weekend.
The performance will take place in The Civic at The Halls Wolverhampton on North Street — a venue with a capacity of about 3,404 — which reopened in 2023 after a £48 million refurbishment to modernise facilities and attract large international acts. While the band are widely known for their early surf music, this anniversary run highlights the artistic depth of their 1966 masterpiece, Pet Sounds, an album credited with changing studio production approaches in popular music.
