Legendary country-rockers the Eagles will perform at Aloha Stadium on Dec. 7, with Hawaii’s own Jack Johnson as the opening act.

The band last played Hawaii in 2005 at Blaisdell Arena, and last played the stadium in 1995. This will be their first concert in the islands since the death of founding member Glenn Frey in January 2016. Joining band members Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B. Schmit in Frey’s place will be his son Deacon and country superstar Vince Gill.

The Eagles’ first hits compilation, “Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975” was recently certified as the United States’ best-selling album of all time, passing Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” with certification of 38 million in sales.

Johnson has sold 25 million albums worldwide.

Tickets for the 7 p.m. show at Aloha Stadium go on sale at 10 a.m. Sept. 14 for Hawaii residents at the Aloha Stadium box office and via Ticketmaster. General sales start 24 hours later. Tickets range in price from $79.50 to $499.50.

There is also a presale for Hawaii American Express cardholders starting at 10 a.m. Monday, with all cardholders eligible to buy starting 24 hours after that. The presale ends at 9 p.m. Thursday.
