Queen tribute coming to The Venue July 6

The Venue, a live music performance room in downtown Aurora, will host Rock a la Carte, a Queen tribute band, on Saturday, July 6.

The Venue, which is run by nonprofit Fox Valley Music Foundation, will host the classic rock tribute show at Mundy Park, which is adjacent to their building. The outdoor show at 8 p.m. will include food vendors.

Rock a la Carte is the ultimate Queen tribute band and classic rock experience. Together since 2005, Rock a la Carte has perfected popular Queen songs, as well as many never before played tracks.

The band hits from “We Will Rock You” to “Radio Gaga” and everything in between. As the official band of the North American Queen Convention, Rock a la Carte has had the opportunity to play for thousands of Queen fans, joining together in one vision.

Rock a la Carte is also skilled with more classic rock hits from The Beatles, Tom Petty, Pink Floyd, Billy Joel, CCR, Johnny Cash, The Monkees, Rolling Stones, Weezer, AC/DC, Nirvana, and more. Rock a la Carte will have everyone up on their feet, dancing and singing along to the hits.

Doors open for all shows one hour before showtime.

The Venue, located at 21 S. Broadway in downtown Aurora, offers a wide selection of craft beer and other beverages at the bar which is open for all shows. Shows are all ages and general admission. Bag chairs are welcome for outdoor shows. Shows will move indoors due to inclement weather.
