Paul McCartney Live at the Barclays Center, New York City – 10 June 2013

Monday 10 June 2013 | Live Performance | Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York City, USA

On 10 June 2013, Paul McCartney performed at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York City — the 12th show of the Out There Tour and the second of two consecutive nights at the venue (the first having taken place on 8 June). The Out There Tour ran for 91 dates between May 2013 and October 2015, making it one of the longest and most extensive touring campaigns of McCartney's solo career.

The Out There Tour

The Out There Tour was Paul McCartney's major world tour of 2013–15, covering North America, South America, Europe, Japan, South Korea, and festival appearances across the UK and US. It opened on 4 May 2013 in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and closed on 22 October 2015 in Buffalo, New York — a span of two and a half years encompassing 91 shows across five continents. The tour included landmark performances at Candlestick Park in San Francisco (14 August 2014 — the final concert ever held at the venue), the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, and the Stade de France in Paris.
