Billy Joel Will End Record Breaking Run of 150 Shows at Madison Square Garden in 2024

Share

Billy Joel is wrapping it up.

The Piano Man will end his record breaking run at Madison Square Garden in July 2024. It will be his 150th monthly show.

The whole run has been an incredible success, allowing Billy to stay mostly close to him and bring all his fans to him. At times, he’s strayed to other cities and countries, but every month like clockwork he’s been at the Garden playing his hits to very happy fans.

The sold out residency began back in 2014, believe it or not. Billy has outlasted dozens of Broadway shows, some mayors, governors, presidents, etc. The run has been a phenomenon and a stunning success.

Joel will turn 75 next May, so that plus the magic 150 number and it all makes sense.
