Tosco Music presents FabFest – Charlotte’s Beatles Festival taking place October 4-5, 2024. FabFest builds community by helping all ages and cultures come together around the universal popularity of the music of the Beatles. FabFest 2024 includes three separate ticketed events, with tickets available for purchase online here:
- Friday, October 4, 7:30pm – Tosco Music Beatles Tribute at Knight Theater
- Saturday, October 5, 10am-5pm – FabFest Daytime at CPCC’s Parr Center
- Saturday, October 5, 8pm – Live and Let Die: The Music of Paul McCartney at Knight Theater
The headline concert on Saturday night is Live and Let Die: The Music of Paul McCartney featuring Tony Kishman. A veteran of the Broadway smash hit musical "Beatlemania", Tony is regarded by “Beatlemaniacs” as the world’s best McCartney look-alike/sound-alike, and the critically acclaimed show includes world class musicians.
FabFest special guest Gregg Bissonette is returning for his second year. One of the top session drummers today, Gregg has had the “honor and thrill” of drumming in the All Starr Band with his drumming hero, Ringo Starr, since 2008 at concerts around the world! FabFest Daytime attendees will have an opportunity to see Gregg live for a special interview and drum clinic, and he’ll sign autographs afterwards!
FabFest opens Friday night with the 20th Anniversary Tosco Music Beatles Tribute, a unique evening of diverse local and regional acts performing Beatles songs in a variety of musical genres, with audience singalongs throughout the night. This popular Charlotte tradition inspired the festival and is regularly a sell-out event.
FabFest Daytime includes live music on two stages at CPCC’s Parr Center, plus plenty of ways for the community to get involved!
- Beatles Art Contest & Sale – Cash Prizes!
- Beatles Cover Song Contest – Cash Prizes!
- Beatles Authors – Gary Burr, Bruce Spizer, Kit O’Toole
- Beatles Trivia and Bingo
- Rare Beatles Concert Videos
- Family Fun Room – Beatles Dance Party, Games and Crafts
