A reunion made in heaven. 

The original Plaids are BACK.

Forever Plaid: The 30th Anniversary Reunion Concert is a special one-hour celebration of the international hit, Forever Plaid. Classic 50s songs like “Sh-Boom,” “Catch a Falling Star,” “Three Coins in the Fountain,” “Chain Gang/Sixteen Tons” and more are crooned by Stan Chandler, David Engel, Jason Graae, and Larry Raben from the original New York production. Think of this as a moment to remember from the Ed Sullivan Show, but outside, in a ball park, with the scent of beer and popcorn in the air.

RUNNING TIME: Approximately 70 minutes, no intermission.

LOCATION:  Blair Field, 4700 Deukmejian Drive, Long Beach

MEET THE PLAIDS with special up-close VIP field seating!
