April 1 is Apple’s 50th anniversary, and the company has been host surprise performances and events around the globe. Now, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says its final celebration, to be held at its Apple Park headquarters for its employees, could be the scene of a “British Invasion.”
In a post on X, Gurman hinted that the special guest performing at Apple’s celebration finale this week with at Apple Park headquarters will be Sir Paul McCartney.
“Let me just say he’s still going strong, was part of the British Invasion and [Steve] Jobs would’ve been ecstatic,” Gurman said about the headliner.
As noted by MacRumors, the Apple Park Visitor Center is closing early at 3 p.m. Pacific Time on Tuesday, March 31. Apple’s final celebration will will likely to be limited to Apple’s corporate employees and other special guests. It hasn’t been confirmed if any of Apple’s retail employees will be invited to the event.
Note: For those of you not familiar with the term “British Invasion,” the term was used to describe the cultural phenomenon of the mid-1960s, when rock and pop music acts from the United Kingdom (led by McCartney’s group, “The Beatles”) began heading the “Top 40” music charts in the United States. This lead to other aspects of British culture becoming popular in the US.
