Wish You Were Here - The Sight & Sound of Pink Floyd returns to Akron Civic Theatre on Saturday June 21, 2025 with its “50/30 Anniversary Tour” to benefit the Akron Children’s Haslinger Pediatric Palliative Care Center. Wish You Were Here celebrates the 50th Anniversary of its namesake and iconic 1975 album, as well as the tribute act’s own 30th Anniversary by performing the Wish You Were Here album in its entirety plus Pink Floyd Classics.
Since 2013, Wish You Were Here’s past 8 benefit concerts in conjunction with Akron Civic Theatre and WONE 97.5FM have raised over $219,000 for Akron Children’s and The Haslinger Family Pediatric Palliative Care Center.
Known as “The Sight and Sound of Pink Floyd” since 1995, Wish You Were Here celebrates its 30-year tradition as North America’s largest, most authentic Pink Floyd stage production, in a spectacular immersive tribute of music, performers, lasers, lighting, videos and inflatables, that stunningly captures the mood, emotions, and intensity of the Floydian concert experience. The 10-piece band performs Pink Floyd from all eras, focusing on the authentic presentation of their Classic Years of 1970-1981 - with lighting, vintage videos, sound effects and flying inflatables from that era - while also recreating the psychedelic visuals from the Syd Barrett years and a spectacular new Laser Light Show from The Division Bell era. Originally debuting as Harvest Pink Floyd Revue in 1987, Wish You Were Here is the longest continually-performing Pink Floyd tribute act in the world, all performed 100% live without backing tracks, with an unparalleled history of sold-out concerts, record-breaking festival events and celebrated theater productions throughout Midwest America.
