Grateful Dead – Final Show Ticket & Backstage Pass Set (Soldier Field, Chicago, IL – July 8–9, 1995)
Own a piece of music history with this rare Grateful Dead Soldier Field Ticket & Backstage Pass Set from the band’s final performances with Jerry Garcia. This EXTREMELY LIMITED 4-piece set includes one ticket and one backstage pass for each night, July 8 and 9, 1995, when the Dead took the stage at Soldier Field in Chicago for what would become Jerry Garcia's final performances and the last Grateful Dead shows.
Opening with The Band, these emotionally charged shows marked the end of an era. Jerry Garcia’s passing one month later, on August 9, 1995, cast these nights in a new light, transforming them from tour stops into a sacred farewell for Deadheads around the world. The Grateful Dead would not perform under that name again until the 2015 “Fare Thee Well” shows, a full 20 years later.
The set is preserved in mint condition, with all four items housed in archival-grade sleeves for long-term protection. The unused backstage passes feature vibrant graphics from the era, and the unused tickets remain as issued, never torn, never scanned.
This set offers an unparalleled opportunity to own a tangible memory from the Dead’s storied journey. A must-have for fans, archivists, and music historians alike.
