Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr will be part of Joe Walsh’s VetsAid in 2027

Eagles guitarist and singer Joe Walsh founded the annual charity music festival VetsAid in 2017 to raise money for vetted nonprofits that support American military veterans and their families. Walsh is a Gold Star son and his father was a pilot in the United States Air Force who died in a mid-air collision while flying a Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star during maneuvers over Okinawa, Japan, in 1949, when he was only two years old.

The 2027 edition of the festival, which will take place on January 29, will be even more special, as it will feature Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. Both are good friends of Walsh, and he is also Ringo’s brother-in-law. VetsAid will take place at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas

What Joe Walsh said about 2027 edition of VetsAid and the line-up

“Having spent the past two years at the Sphere and working with the hardworking people of Las Vegas, I want to show them my gratitude and respect. This city has taken such good care of me and my family that it would be my privilege to give back to the large veteran community here and to their families. The VetsAid rock and roll circus is pulling into the MGM Grand Garden and for our tenth anniversary we have our biggest show ever!” he said.

Besides Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, will also be part of the festival The Killers, The War on Drugs, St. Vincent, Lucius and more special guests that will be announced. All the money raised will go to approved veterans’ charities in Nevada.
