(WAYNE, NJ) -- WP Presents brings the U2 tribute band Unforgettable Fire to the Shea Center for Performing Arts on Saturday, May 16, 2026 at 8:00pm. Unforgettable Fire, or ‘UF’, was born on New Year's Day in 1995 as one of the very first U2 Tribute Bands to ever perform in America.

After over thirty years of performing at the most prestigious venues throughout the East Coast and beyond, UF have formed the reputation of being the preeminent U2 Tribute Show in North America. The band strives to present a truly authentic U2 experience, both sonically, and visually.

In addition to performing a very impressive array of U2 material from pre-”Boy” to the most recent “Songs of Experience”, the band does everything in their power (from wardrobe to lighting) to create the live U2 concert setting for their audience. The members of UF are also very dedicated fans of U2, and will not settle for anything less than complete authenticity.

The band has had a rather interesting history from having two members of U2 (The Edge and Adam Clayton) join them on stage at The Cutting Room in 2015 to being featured as a question on "Jeopardy" in 2021 to appearing on the series premiere of "Clash of The Cover Bands" on E! Network.

Tickets range from $33-$48 and are available for purchase online. The Shea Center for Performing Arts is located at 300 Pompton Road in Wayne, New Jersey.
