Swedish House Mafia is set to make history as the first electronic music group to headline Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, New York, on September 11. This monumental event marks another significant achievement for the trio, consisting of Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Steve Angello, as they continue to deepen their connection with the city they love.
With a capacity of 23,000, the stadium, typically known for hosting prestigious tennis events like the US Open, will witness an electrifying performance that aligns with Swedish House Mafia’s newly announced 3.0 era. Fans can look forward to an exhilarating show featuring their latest sounds, including the recently released single, “Wait So Long,” the first track from their new SUPERHUMAN imprint.
In a meaningful gesture, Swedish House Mafia has collaborated with PLUS1 to give back to the community. For every ticket sold, $1 will be donated to organizations supporting those affected by the September 11, 2001 events, with the trio matching the total donations made from the concert.
Ticket sales will commence with a presale for fans starting Wednesday, July 23, followed by additional presales before the general sale kicks off on July 25.
This concert not only showcases the group’s evolution and love for New York but also emphasizes their commitment to social impact and giving back. It’s a promising sign of positivity as they blend entertainment with philanthropy.
