Sir Paul McCartney is to play a benefit concert in Atlanta's Piedmont Park this summer.

The gig, one August 15, will raise money to help maintain and expand the historic landmark, which dates back to 1887.

The former Beatle's performance is likely to eclipse Dave Matthews Band and The Allman Brothers Band 2007 show in the park, which was attended by 50,000 people.

Sir Paul is also set to perform two concerts at Citi Field in New York next month.

His last appearance in America came at the Coachella music festival in April.

Tickets go on sale on June 15 at 10am. For more information, check out the Gigwise Gig Guide.
