Madison Square Garden is the third best selling musical venue in the world, along with the oldest arena in the National Hockey League, and second oldest in the NBA, and it was at one time also one of the biggest and best places for boxing fights.
Not only does the Garden have a history in sports, but also in music. In 1972, Elvis Presley gave four concerts to a full house. And Madison Square Garden has seating for as many as 20,000 people! In 2001, Michael Jackson gave two concerts, with the best tickets selling for $5,000! And the tickets sold out in five hours. Madison Square Garden also hosted John Lennon’s last appearance in concert, before his murder.
