McCartney and Starr Set for VetsAid Benefit in Las Vegas

Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are scheduled to perform together at Joe Walsh’s VetsAid benefit concert in Las Vegas in January 2027, joining a lineup that includes The Killers, The War on Drugs, St. Vincent and Lucius. The event is set for MGM Grand Garden Arena, with all net proceeds designated for veteran-related charities.

Three reports place the concert on January 29, 2027, while another gives January 27. The date discrepancy is unresolved. VetsAid’s announced event information, as reported by three sources, lists January 29.

Walsh, the Eagles guitarist who founded the benefit, is also scheduled to perform. He said the Las Vegas event would give back to the city’s veteran community and their families, and indicated that additional guests may appear. The Killers, The War on Drugs, St. Vincent and Lucius are set to play full sets, according to the event announcement.

VetsAid says proceeds from the Las Vegas concert will support veterans’ service organizations based in Nevada or operating in the state. The nonprofit has distributed more than $5 million in grants since its founding in 2017, according to the event announcement. The concert is described as VetsAid’s 10th benefit.
