The show at London’s O2 Arena on May 23 is linked with the 50th anniversary of “Yesterday”, which was released as a single in August, 1965.

Speaking about the anniversary, McCartney said: “‘Yesterday‘ feels like it has taken on a life of its own over the years. The song still is and always has been an important part of our live show. It’s always very emotional for me to hear crowds singing it so loudly at my concerts and I’m looking forward to singing it along with the audience at the O2 in May.”
