Kingston’s UPAC — the Ulster Performing Arts Center — is the kind of room that earns its reputation show by show. The theater at 601 Broadway sits in the heart of the Hudson Valley, and on Friday, August 7, it is hosting something that warrants the drive: Brit Floyd, billed as the World’s Premier Pink Floyd Experience, bringing their 2026 tour The Moon, The Wall and Beyond to the stage at 8:00 PM.
About Brit Floyd
Formed in Liverpool in January 2011, Brit Floyd has spent the years since building a case that no tribute act does it better. Over 1,500 shows across 40+ countries. Dates at the Royal Albert Hall, Red Rocks, Radio City Music Hall, and the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. Collaborations with actual Pink Floyd touring musicians — Guy Pratt, Durga McBroom, Roberta Freeman, and Scott Page among them. That résumé is not something you can fake.
Led by guitarist and musical director Damian Darlington and bassist Ian Cattell, the band brings the full experience: the music, the production, and the staging that made Pink Floyd shows their own genre of event. The 2026 tour focuses on The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall — two albums that have not stopped meaning something to people for decades. Expect highlights from both, including “Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2,” “Comfortably Numb,” “Time,” and “Money,” plus material from Wish You Were Here, Animals, and the broader Floyd catalog.
The production deploys lasers, video projections, inflatables, and theatrical staging that make this as much spectacle as concert. If you have ever wondered what it would have felt like to catch a proper Floyd production live, this is the closest answer playing in your region this summer.
About the Venue
UPAC — the Ulster Performing Arts Center at 601 Broadway in Kingston, NY 12401 is a working theater built for productions that mean business. It is operated by Bardavon, and the box office is open Tuesday through Friday, 10 AM to 4 PM. Kingston sits squarely in the Hudson Valley — easy reach from the mid-Hudson corridor, a reasonable shot from the Capital Region, and worth the longer haul from just about anywhere upstate for a show at this scale.

The $200 VIP package adds early arrival at 5:00 PM, exclusive merchandise browsing, a private soundcheck featuring two unreleased Pink Floyd songs, and a direct meet-and-greet with band members for photos and autographs.
