New York's Webster Hall is set to re-open with a bang. The East Village venue, which closed over two years ago for renovations, will open its doors later this month with a performance from JAY-Z.
As Billboard points out, JAY will play his B-Sides 2 show at the venue on April 26.
Brett Yormark, the CEO of BSE Global, which is the company that manages programming, sales, and other operations for Webster, shared they wanted a "world-famous New York City icon” to re-open the venue. “No one fits that description better than JAY-Z, who will join an unparalleled list of celebrated performers who have played Webster Hall,” Yormark said in a statement.
Tickets for the event are set to go on sale to the general public on April 19. More info here.
