Dead and Company make their debut at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford on Aug. 1. The show marks a return of sorts; MetLife Stadium is at the Meadowlands Sports Complex, where the Grateful Dead had performed at the former Brendan Byrne Arena and Giants Stadium a combined 30 times, according to online fan database DeadLists.

The Grateful Dead released the archival box set "Giants Stadium: 1987, 1989, 1991," collecting five previously-unreleased shows at the venue, in 2019.
