If you had big plans this summer to make it to an outdoor concert at Wolf Trap but haven't checked it off your list yet, there's still time! All concerts are held at the Filene Center amphitheater, 1551 Trap Road in Vienna. 

Here's a rundown of some of the end-of-summer concerts coming to Wolf Trap:

Be there when Australian Pink Floyd returns from Down Under to the Filene Center. The seminal album Wish You Were Here will be performed in its entirety, including all nine parts of “Shine On You Crazy Diamond,” along with more of Pink Floyd's greatest hits from The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall. See “the gold standard” (The Times) of tribute acts with a stunning light and laser show, videos, and gargantuan inflatables that help recreate Pink Floyd’s legendary stage shows.

Led by the husband-and-wife team of guitarist Derek Trucks and vocalist/guitarist Susan Tedeschi, the 12-member strong Tedeschi Trucks Band is acclaimed by critics and fans alike for their unrivaled vocal and instrumental talent. Their high-energy shows expertly blend soul, blues, country, and rock on tracks “Midnight in Harlem” and “Made Up Mind.”

Texas-based festival favorites Whiskey Myers are praised for their “seminal combination of twang and crunchy rock” (Rolling Stone). With their hit song “John Wayne” and musical features in shows like Yellowstone, the group has made their mark in the Americana landscape with comparisons to the Allman Brothers Band and Led Zeppelin.

Make sure your picnic includes a bottle of “red, red wine” for this show! UB40 celebrates over 45 years of smooth reggae-pop sounds with a set jam-packed with fan favorites “Kingston Town,” “(I Can't Help) Falling In Love With You,” “Food For Thought,” and of course—“Red Red Wine.” Their latest album UB45 is a testament to the longevity and genius of their sound, reinventing past tracks and forging ahead with brand new, energetic songs you won’t want to miss live.

  • Two nights of John Legend (Sep. 2 + 3, 8 p.m.; gates open at 6:30 p.m.) tickets start at $68.50; celebrating the 20th anniversary of his double-platinum debut album Get Lifted

Backed by his full band, John Legend’s “Get Lifted20th Anniversary World Tour” will showcase a set list celebrating the entirety of Get Lifted, which garnered eight nominations and won three Grammy Awards at the 48th Annual Grammy Awards, including Best Male R&B Vocal Performance for “Ordinary People,” Best R&B Album for Get Lifted, and Best New Artist.

Each night, Legend will deliver a mix of deep cuts, fan favorites, and fresh renditions of the album’s beloved tracks like the Grammy-winning “Ordinary People” (his breakout hit that reached the Billboard Top 40 and the UK R&B Singles chart), “Used to Love U,” “Number One,” and “So High.” In addition to honoring Get Lifted, the live show will feature Legend’s other career-spanning hits, showcasing the musical depth and storytelling that have been hallmarks of his artistry for the past two decades.
