The concert is scheduled to take place at the Catalina Casino in Avalon, California, on October 15, 2026. The Catalina Casino, despite its name, has never functioned as a gambling establishment. Constructed in 1929 by chewing gum magnate William Wrigley Jr., it was designed as a multi-purpose entertainment venue. Its architectural style is Art Deco, showcasing a distinctive circular design and a large ballroom renowned for its acoustics.

Throughout its history, the Catalina Casino has hosted numerous big band performances during the swing era, film screenings (it was one of the first buildings designed for talking pictures), and live concerts featuring prominent artists across diverse genres. The building remains a significant landmark on Catalina Island and continues to operate as a venue for events and tours, attracting visitors interested in both its history and architectural beauty. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
