John is no stranger to Petco Park, having delivered a show-stopping performance at the stadium during his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour on November 9, 2022. That sold-out concert saw the superstar and his six-piece band perform 23 songs over two hours and 23 minutes, treating the audience of 40,000 fans to a career-spanning setlist that included classics like Tiny Dancer, Rocket Man, and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. His heartfelt farewell tour left an unforgettable mark on San Diego, making his return to the same stage all the more special.
This year’s Concert for Cures follows a strong lineup of past headliners, including Alicia Keys and Ed Sheeran at The Rady Shell at Jacobs Park. The event has become a cornerstone in San Diego’s philanthropic and music scene, raising funds to support groundbreaking cancer research initiatives.
