On August 15, 1965 the Beatles put on the first-ever concert in a stadium. The venue was Shea Stadium, home of the New York Mets. And the rest is history... SO many groups have followed in their footsteps by putting on concerts in stadiums... In the first concert 55,600 fans came. The concert took in $304,000 (which in 1965 was not a small fortune) and the Beatles themselves took in a then-record profit of $160,000. More groundbreaking things to come...
