Like so many performing arts venues, organizations and businesses, The Aretha Franklin Amphitheater’s 2020 ticketed performances have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In exploring all options to produce shows and bring in the Summer with live entertainment, it has been determined that The Aretha will postpone all currently ticketed 2020 performances. 2021 actual dates are pending.
2020 ticketholders are asked to hold on to their tickets as they will be valid for the same seat for the 2021 performance. Per Ticketmaster’s refund policy, tickets are eligible for a refund for 30 days once a new show date is announced.
All artists on the 2020 line-up have agreed to reschedule their performance. Artists performing in 2021 include:

“This was an extremely difficult decision as we prepared for performances. However, in adhering to state and local mandates, it is our responsibility to protect our guests, artists and staff. We want everyone to remain safe and look forward to seeing you again very soon” said Shahida Mausi, President, The Right Productions, Inc. and Manager, The Aretha Franklin Amphitheatre.
