Candlestick Park, San Francisco

If you happened to be hanging out in San Francisco on August 29th, 1966, and had an extra $4.50 in your pocket you could have joined 24,000 screaming Beatles fans for the band’s next-to-final concert at Candlestick Park. The show, which because of light ticket sales only filled part of the outdoor stadium, lasted just 33 minutes. Touring had lost its allure, and the boys turned almost exclusively to their studio recordings. The city of San Francisco still owns and operates the stadium, currently home to the NFL San Francisco 49ers.
