(La Porte, IN) - A Beatles tribute band, the Mega Beatles, is scheduled to perform tomorrow night in La Porte at the Civic Auditorium.

 

Civic Auditorium Director Brett Binversie says plenty of tickets are still available given the large seating capacity, but he expects a good-sized crowd.

 

“The Civic Auditorium can hold over 2,500 and we’ll probably have less than a third of the capacity. It’s going to be a great event,” Binversie said.

The concert stems from a commitment by the city to stage more major events at the Civic Auditorium, which will host a three-day college-prep basketball tournament beginning January 6. ESPN will televise the games.

 

More tribute bands are scheduled to perform at the Civic Auditorium in 2022. Tom Petty and John Cougar Mellencamp tribute bands performed at the nearly century-old facility in the fall. 

 

Tickets for the Mega Beatles are $20 for a balcony seat, $25 for a seat on the floor, and $300 for a table with eight seats on the floor. The doors Thursday open at 5:45 p.m. The concert begins at 7 p.m.
