A New Era of Entertainment at Providence Park
For the first time in nearly two decades, Providence Park will open its doors to a concert. On Friday, the iconic sports venue will host the Foo Fighters, marking a significant milestone in its history.

According to the Portland Timbers, the team that plays at Providence Park, the multi-year plan to bring concerts to the venue is a testament to its versatility and the city's growing entertainment scene.
Transforming the Field into a Concert Venue
To prepare for the concert, crews have transformed the soccer field into a concert space. A timelapse video shared by Providence Park shows the intricate process of setting up the stage, lighting, and sound systems.
The conversion process required meticulous planning and coordination to ensure the field remained undamaged and ready for soccer matches once the concert concluded.

The Foo Fighters concert will take place on Friday, August 26. Tickets are still available for purchase through various outlets.
Fans can expect an unforgettable performance from the legendary rock band. The Foo Fighters are known for their energetic live shows and have a loyal following worldwide.
