By Rachel Torrey · March 12, 2026

If you have been waiting for a reason to get out to Strand Center for the Arts, Almost Queen on March 14 is it. This show has the kind of energy that turns a regular Saturday night into something you talk about for weeks afterward. The Capital Region concert calendar has plenty on it this spring, but this one stands out.

About Almost Queen

Almost Queen is one of the most acclaimed Queen tribute acts in the country, delivering a full concert experience complete with elaborate costumes and note-perfect harmonies. The band recreates the spectacle and musicianship of a Queen performance with meticulous attention to detail that goes beyond what most tribute acts attempt. For fans who never got to see Freddie Mercury live, this is as close as it gets. The vocal performances are genuinely impressive, capturing the range and theatricality that made Queen one of the greatest live bands ever. Almost Queen understands that a Queen tribute is not just about playing the songs correctly but recreating the entire experience.
