Phish’s New Year’s Eve Run
Once the legendary improvisational jam band, Phish, wraps up the fourth show of its four-show run to close out Madison Square Garden’s 2018 concert calendar, the band will have played its 60th capacity concert at the storied venue. Only Billy Joel has played more shows, or more sold-out shows, at The World’s Most Famous Arena. The band plays two sets nightly, and is known for not repeating songs during any run of shows. All 20,789 seats for each of the four filled up instantly, but tickets are available until the last second on official resale sites such as SeatGeek or Stubhub.
