Today sees the final release of tickets for The Taylor Hawkins Tribute show, presented by Foo Fighters along with the Hawkins family at Wembley Stadium, London. The late Foo Fighters drummer was only 50 years old when he was found dead in his hotel room in Colombia in March earlier this year. A cause of death is yet to be announced.

The band is already in London preparing for the one-off show, which promises to be a day of epic music and, though tinged with sadness, a time to celebrate a great musician and friend.

The show will take place on Saturday 3 September at Wembley Stadium. Doors will open at 2.30pm, with the show starting at 4.30pm.

From 12pm on show day, special merchandise will be available on Olympic Way. Ticket and merchandise sales will benefit Music Support, a charity that helps those who work in music and live events affected by mental ill-health and/or addiction.

“Our team has been personally impacted by these issues and seen friends, colleagues and heroes lose their careers, families and even their lives,” Foo Fighters said. “You are not alone.”

In a statement online, the charity said it was “incredibly grateful, touched, honoured and privileged to have been chosen as one of the beneficiary charities for these amazing shows”.
