Queen tribute show in Wellington, Florida |
Details on the Absolute Queen tribute band and Absolute Queen tickets |
Wellington Queen fans looking for a night out have a nearby option this fall: the Absolute Queen tribute band is bringing its dinner-and-show experience to West Palm Beach.
The performance is scheduled for Friday, October 2, 2026, at Palm Beach Kennel Club, giving Wellington residents a chance to hear Queen’s music live without traveling far from home.
Doors are set to open at 6:30 p.m., with the Queen tribute show beginning at 8 p.m.
Despite the Wellington connection, the venue is in West Palm Beach, not Wellington.
Palm Beach Kennel Club is located at 1111 North Congress Avenue, a detail worth checking before setting out for the evening.
Absolute Queen builds its act around the big sound, layered harmonies and theatrical energy that made Queen’s concerts so memorable.
For longtime fans, that means an opportunity to revisit familiar songs in a setting designed for the full concert experience.
For newer listeners, it is a lively introduction to music that has kept finding audiences across generations.
The appeal is more than nostalgia: Queen songs invite people to sing along, and a tribute performance works best when the room joins in.
That shared energy could make this an appealing plan for couples, groups of friends or families with older children.
The event is billed as a dinner and show, but guests should confirm what their chosen admission includes before making plans.
That is especially important for anyone coordinating a meal, arrival time or seating with a larger group.
Absolute Queen tickets are tied to the October 2 performance; pricing, availability and seating options should be checked directly with the venue.
Wellington residents may also want to allow time for the drive and parking rather than arriving just as the music starts.
There is no need to overcomplicate the night: settle in, enjoy dinner if it is part of your plans and get ready for the show.
The key planning detail is simple: this is a nearby West Palm Beach outing for Wellington fans, with doors opening well before the performance.
If Queen’s soaring vocals and arena-sized spirit are your idea of a good night out, October 2 is worth circling. |

I am glad the start time is clear. An 8 p.m. Show at Palm Beach Kennel Club leaves enough time to get there from Wellington after work.
October 2 is going on my calendar while I check prices. A nearby show with dinner could make for an easy night out with friends.
I wonder if the show will have room for people to get up and sing along. Sitting through Queen songs without moving would be tough.
It is helpful that the dinner is described as something to confirm rather than a guaranteed part of every ticket. I would check before inviting friends.
I have heard plenty of Queen songs, but never seen them performed live. Absolute Queen might be a fun way to experience that concert sound.
The short trip from Wellington is a plus, but Friday traffic can be unpredictable. Leaving early enough for the 6:30 doors sounds sensible.
Good thinking. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. And the show starts at 8, leaving some time to account for the drive and parking.
I would compare the seating choices before buying tickets. With a theatrical show like this, being able to see the performers matters.
My friends and I enjoy tribute shows when the crowd is willing to participate. Queen seems like a good fit for that kind of evening.
We agree, Queen’s sing-along favorites seem made for a room that joins in. That shared energy is part of what makes a tribute show such a fun group outing.
The venue makes more sense once you see the address on North Congress Avenue. I hope ticket buyers get clear information about where to park, too.
Marcus LeeAgreed, parking details would help. North Congress is easy enough to find, but knowing which entrance to use would save some circling.
I have been looking for a concert to take my older kids to. Familiar Queen songs might make this a better choice than a band they have never heard.
Patricia K.My teenager knows more Queen songs than I expected, thanks to movies and sports games. This could be a fun one for older kids.
An 8 p.m. Start makes this manageable after work on Friday. I would still want to arrive when the doors open if dinner is included.
I wish the dinner options were clearer up front. For a group outing, it matters whether we need to eat before arriving or can eat there.
That’s a fair point, especially for a group. The event is billed as dinner and a show, but we recommend confirming meal options with the venue before deciding whether to eat beforehand.
The sing-along part might be the best reason to go. Queen songs are more fun when the whole room gets into them.
Lynn RobertsExactly. Even people who don't follow Queen seem to know the words to a few songs.
I appreciate the reminder that the venue is in West Palm Beach, not Wellington. That is an easy detail to miss when planning the drive.
This could be a good birthday outing for my husband, who knows every Queen song. I will check the ticket options before making plans.
Tribute bands can be hit or miss, so I would like to hear from anyone who has seen Absolute Queen before. The dinner and show setup does sound appealing.
I like that the doors open well before the music starts. Rushing through dinner to make an 8 p.m. Show would take some of the fun out of it.
It helps to have the North Congress Avenue address spelled out. West Palm Beach covers a lot of ground when you are coming from Wellington.
We’re glad the address helps. Palm Beach Kennel Club is at 1111 North Congress Avenue in West Palm Beach, so it’s worth putting that into your directions before leaving Wellington.
A Queen show depends a lot on the vocals. I would be interested to hear how Absolute Queen handles the bigger songs and harmonies.
The October 2 date works well for an early fall outing. I am curious whether the dinner seating gives everyone a good view of the band.
Jules CarterI wondered about the view too. I'd ask the venue about the seating layout before booking dinner tickets.
My parents played Queen constantly when I was growing up. A tribute show could be a nice way to share those songs with my teenagers.
Palm Beach Kennel Club is a reasonable drive from Wellington for a night out. I would still leave extra time for parking on a Friday evening.
Ron MillerFriday traffic can slow down near Congress, so I'd leave Wellington earlier than the drive time suggests.
I would want to know exactly what the dinner ticket includes before buying. The show sounds fun, but seating and meal details make a difference for a group.
Absolutely, meal and seating details can make or break a group plan. Check with Palm Beach Kennel Club about exactly what your chosen admission includes before buying.
Doors at 6:30 for an 8 p.m. Show gives people time to settle in. That sounds especially useful if dinner is part of the plan.
The West Palm Beach location is worth pointing out for Wellington residents. I would have assumed the show was closer to home if I had only seen the headline.
