Dispatch brings a Charlottesville date to Ting Pavilion on July 18, 2026. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. ET.
Dispatch pulls roughly 720K monthly listeners on Spotify, with 184K fans tracking the act on Bandsintown.
The act
Formed in 1996, out of Boston, MA, Dispatch has been touring behind a strengthening catalog into a live act with national reach.
Dispatch formed at Middlebury College in 1996 around Brad Corrigan, Pete Heimbold, and Chad Stokes Urmston. The band's 2004 farewell concert in Boston drew 110,000 fans. After a 2007 reunion, they have toured and recorded sporadically; their seventh album Break Our Fall arrived in 2023.
The venue
Ting Pavilion sits at 700 East Main Street, a 3,500-capacity outdoor amphitheater operated by Starr Hill Presents under booker Danny Shea.
Ting programs eclectically across mid-major touring acts on the summer circuit. The room runs 3,500 general-admission, with sightlines from front-of-house to the back of the floor.
The night
Doors 7:00 PM. Set 8:00 PM. All ages. Ticket prices are set on the on-sale.
Why now
Dispatch pulls a measurable 98/100 share of Charlottesville-metro listeners on Spotify, including a non-trivial DC and Richmond overlap that often crosses for shows at this size.
