Earth, Wind & Fire Announce Return To Mohegan Sun Arena

Tickets go on sale Friday, June 11th

UNCASVILLE, CT (June 9, 2021) – The legendary music group, Earth, Wind & Fire will perform at Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, December 10th at 8:00pm.

Tickets are $67.00, $57.00 and $47.00 and on sale Friday, June 11th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com.

Earth, Wind & Fire are a musical institution. 2020 marked a year-long celebration of their 50th anniversary in entertainment – one that has taken them all around the globe playing sold out concerts. In 2019, their contributions to arts and culture were acknowledged in Washington DC with the prestigious “Kennedy Center Honors”. The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery also awarded Earth, Wind & Fire with its “Portrait of a Nation” prize.

The band has scored eight number one hits, has sold over 100 million albums worldwide and released 23 albums. Eight of those albums went double platinum and hit the Top 10, making them one of the best-selling artists of all time. They’ve won an impressive nine Grammy Awards including one for “Lifetime Achievement” (2012). In 2000, Earth, Wind & Fire was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, cementing their lasting impact on popular music.

For their record-breaking success, they’ve also been awarded with “Lifetime Achievement” honors from ASCAP, NAACP, BET, and have star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Their reach extends to heads-of- state. They have been invited to perform for Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, who said in an interview with Rolling Stone that Earth, Wind & Fire was a “Rhythm and Blues and Pop staple.”

Their achievements are equally matched by their generosity. Over the years, the band has supported various charity organizations including the Make a Wish Foundation, Race to Erase MS, the American Cancer Society, and the Human Society. In 2007, leader Philip Bailey founded Music Is Unity, which helps youth in foster care successfully transition into adulthood and provides music instruments to youth with musical aspirations but lacking the resources. Co- founder, Verdine White has led important initiatives with the Girls & Boys Club of America and opened The Verdine White Foundation in Los Angeles as a mecca to serve youth with music scholarships and other programs.

The music of Earth, Wind & Fire is more alive than ever as they continue to inspire new audiences and thrill those who have been with them from the beginning. Like the elements in their name, Earth, Wind & Fire’s music has withstood ever-changing trends in the world and shows no sign of vanishing as they continue to create joy and uplifting music that will forever reach a sacred universal atmosphere.
