NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Joan Jett is set to headline a free concert with her band the Blackhearts in Long Island on July 30 as part of a “Nassau is Back” event sponsored by Jovia Financial Credit Union.
The longtime Long Beach resident will perform at 8 p.m. in East Meadow’s Eisenhower Park.
A VIP area for veterans, doctors and first responders with valid ID will be available at the concert on a first-come, first-served basis. Parking will be limited and satellite parking lots with public transportation will be announced shortly.
"After years of COVID restrictions, I am excited to welcome Long Island's own Joan Jett back to the [Harry Chapin] Lakeside Theater at Eisenhower Park to celebrate our county's resiliency and show the rest of the state and country that Nassau is back and open for business," Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman said in a statement Monday.
He added "I want to encourage everyone, especially our veterans, doctors, nurses and first responders" — who are eligible to enter a VIP area with valid ID on a first-come, first-served basis — "to come out and enjoy a full night of great music in celebration of all we have overcome and all we are still to achieve."
