Although they made an unannounced live appearance in January 1969 on
the rooftop of the Apple building, The Beatles’ final live concert took place
at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, California.
The Park’s capacity was 42,500, but only 25,000 tickets were sold, leaving
large sections of unsold seats. Loyal fans paid between $4.50 and $6.50 for
tickets, and The Beatles’ fee was around $90,000. The MC of the concert
was ‘Emperor’ Gene Nelson (below) of KYA Oldies Radio 1260 AM.
