This weekend will play host to one of the year’s biggest music events, as the first Taylor Hawkins tribute concert, at London’s Wembley Stadium, will take place on Saturday, September 3. If you can’t make it out to Wembley, it will fortunately be pretty easy to watch the show either online or on TV.
In mid-August, it was reported that the concert would be viewable in a number of ways aside from actually being there in person. Foo Fighters and the Hawkins family have teamed up with Paramount to air the concert on Paramount’s platforms, including CBS, MTV, Paramount+, and Pluto TV. Furthermore, a one-hour special will air on MTV, starting in Latin America on September 3, before an extended two-hour cut will air later on this month.
Watch the London concert live from anywhere in the world Saturday, Sept. 3rd.
