Joe Walsh is set to host his 8th annual VetsAid benefit show on November 11th at the UBS Arena in Belmont Park, just outside New York City. The event, which begins at 7 p.m., will feature performances by Toto, Eric Church, and Kool and the Gang, who are set to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame later this year. Tickets for the show go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday, August 16th.

In a recent news release, Walsh emphasized the spirit of the event, saying:

“VetsAid 2024 is all about family, friends, and faith. I honor our collective faith in the power of music to bring fans of diverse backgrounds together in celebration and our faith in the power of love to unite us all as Americans to support a population of veterans that has sacrificed so much and asked for so little in return. We’ve got something for everyone at VetsAid this year – country, pop, rock, funk, and gospel – so all aboard!”

VetsAid has a rich history, beginning in 2017 with its inaugural event in Virginia. Over the years, it has been held in various locations across the United States, including California and Texas. During the pandemic, the event transitioned to a streaming-only format but has since returned to live performances. Past VetsAid lineups have included legendary acts such as Don Henley, Jeff Lynne, ZZ Top, the Doobie Brothers, Eddie Vedder, James Hetfield, and the Black Keys.

Walsh shares a special connection with Toto’s Steve Lukather through their time with Ringo Starr’s All-Starr Band. Lukather, who joined the band in 2012, has continued with a record-breaking stint, while Walsh, who was part of the original lineup in 1989, has returned as a guest over the years.

Proceeds from VetsAid go to veterans’ service charities, with nearly $3.5 million distributed through a grant process since its inception. This year’s event promises to be a memorable celebration of music, unity, and support for those who have served.
