Goodbye, Syracuse. Hello, Manhattan.
After a weather-shortened night at the Empower Federal Credit Union Amphitheater, Phish has a quintet of gigs coming up at The House That Jalen Brunson Built Madison Square Garden.
They’re scheduled to take place:
Wednesday, July 22
7:30 p.m.
Friday, July 24
7:30 p.m.
Saturday, July 25
7:30 p.m.
Monday, July 27
7:30 p.m.
Wednesday, July 29
7:30 p.m.
These five concerts will be their 92nd, 93rd, 94th, 95th and 96th at the Garden, putting them behind just Billy Joel’s 150 (and ahead of luminaries such as Elton John, The Grateful Dead, Bruce Springsteen, Eric Clapton and The Who).
If you’d like to see Trey, Fish, Page and Mike deliver a truly novel experience live, last-minute tickets are still available.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets for any one of the five shows was $71 including fees on SeatGeek (that’s for the July 28 concert).
When our team last reported on how much seats cost for these MSG shows on June 18, they were a bit more expensive.
Back then, the lowest price was $101.
While $30 aren’t huge savings, they’re definitely nothing to sneeze at.
As an added bonus, if you’re buying multiple tickets (or pricier seats), make sure to use promo code NYPOST10 for $10 off purchases over $250 at checkout (Editor’s Note: this discount is only valid for users’ first purchase on SeatGeek).
Most importantly, should you take the plunge and snag last-minute seats, expect a truly stunning show.
Live For Live Music recently claimed “Phish is in a late renaissance…the band continues challenging predictability by defying its own established norms.”
“[Their] 2026 summer tour has been defined by elongated jams on historically short songs.. the band has played the longest-ever takes on ‘555,’ ‘Bouncing Around the Room,’ ‘Contact,’ ‘Evolve,’ ‘Golgi Apparatus,’ ‘Horn,’ ‘Life Saving Gun,’ ‘The Lizards,’ ‘Sightless Escape,’ ‘Split Open and Melt,’ ‘Vultures,’ and ‘The Wedge’ ever, many of which had never stretched past ten minutes in length until this month.”
With that, we’ll see ya there, Phans.

Phish new music
On July 12, 2024, Phish dropped their ambitious 16th studio album “Evolve.”
As expected, the band completely surprises. No two songs are alike here; their only connection is the cosmically in-sync ensemble.
Personally, we were most taken with the slinky, bass-y, mysterious “Hey Stranger,” upbeat toe-tapper “A Wave Of Hope” and slow burn “Monsters.”
Be sure to try the restrained Beatles-esque “Valdese,” too. It’s impossible not to crack a smile while listening.

What’s it like to see Phish live?
In December 2023, the New York Post spoke with comedian Max Fine about what it’s like to attend a Phish concert.
“It’s not like anything you’ve ever seen because it’s never happened before,” the Phan explained.
“Every show is special and unique because they don’t plan for it. You get to be whoever you want at a Phish show.”
