Damned Torpedoes is a live tribute to the music of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, celebrating one of the greatest catalogs in American rock and roll.

From the instantly recognizable hits to longtime fan favorites and deeper cuts, our show brings audiences through more than four decades of Tom Petty’s music with the energy and musicianship of a live rock concert.

Whether you grew up with Damn the Torpedoes, discovered Petty through MTV, or simply know every word to Free Fallin’, the goal is the same: give Tom Petty fans a night filled with the songs they came to hear.

A Celebration, Not an Impersonation
