The concert will reportedly be a benefit for world peace and breast cancer charities. No announcements have been made about ticket prices. No confirmation was forthcoming from McCartney, Starr or Apple Records. The Beatles performed two legendary concert dates at the Hollywood Bowl in 1965 and 1966.
