Live at the Garden 2022
Steely Dan: June 11
Darius Rucker: July 15
Lady A: Aug. 20
The Doobie Brothers with Michael McDonald: Sept. 3
Chicago: Oct. 20
Sherry May, co-director of Live at the Garden and the Radians Amphitheater, said the garden’s goal for the season is always to offer a variety of genres, with a mix of newer and older artists.
This will be both Lady A’s and Steely Dan’s first time performing at the Botanic Garden; May said Steely Dan is “the No. 1 requested act for years” from Live at the Garden fans.
Darius Rucker is returning to the garden for the third time, as is Chicago, always “a fan favorite,” according to May. The Doobie Brothers’ show is a part of their 50th-anniversary tour and features former lead singer Michael McDonald.
Live at the Garden tickets go on sale Monday, May 2, at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster. Fans can purchase season-long passes, individual concert tickets, or for the first time, a limited number of Season Pit Passes. The pit is a standing-room-only area immediately in front of the stage. The Pit Pass includes all five shows with lawn seat tickets but also allows access to the pit.
