Beatles to attend unveiling of Imagine Peace Tower
Beatles to attend unveiling of Imagine Peace Tower
Former Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr will arrive in Iceland October 5 and are scheduled to attend the Unveiling of Yoko Ono's Imagine Peace Tower on Videy Island off Reykjavík October 9, on her late husband's John Lennon's birthday.
According to mbl.is, the Beatles will stay at Hótel Borg with a team of bodyguards and assistants.
Both McCartney and Starr have visited Iceland before, McCartney in 2000 with his former wife Heather Mills, and Starr in 1984 when he played with local band Studmenn.
The Imagine Peace Tower is a powerful beacon of light representing people's wishes for peace, set to shine every year between October 9, Lennon's birthday, and December 8, the anniversary of his death. Lennon would have turned 67 next October 9.

man! Let's play Who Doesnt Want to Go There? Of course I'd love to go. But as I have school and not a whole lot of money, that takes care of that.

The unveiling of the IMAGINE PEACE TOWER in Iceland is a private invitation-only event. Members of the public can enjoy the unveiling from mainland Reykjavik, where the clear view from Saebraut by the sculpture Solfarid is particularly recommended.
Footage of the unveiling will be shown live on RUV & Channel 2 in Iceland and later on www.IMAGINEPEACE.com
