Nightwish have announced that their An Evening With Nightwish In A Virtual World will now take place on Friday 28th May and Saturday 29th May 2021.
The interactive concert experiences were originally scheduled to take place in March, however due to the postponement of the band’s tour (further details on this can be found below) it will now take place in May. Fans will see the band performing from a tavern called The Islanders Arms where they will debut tracks from their new album Human. :II: Nature, with slightly different setlists each night.
Tickets already purchased will remain valid for the rescheduled dates or can be returned until 12th March 2021. Two-day tickets are on sale at the current price until 14th February at 21:59 GMT, before an increase in price. At this time VIP packages will go on sale, offering a virtual session with the yet-to-be-revealed bass player of the tour and more.
Further ticket details, including the bundles available, can be found at the band’s website HERE. Fans can watch the performances back for 48 hours after the shows have aired on Friday 28th May (Europe – 8pm CET/7pm GMT) and Saturday 29th May (North and South America – 8pm ET (UTC-5)/5pm PT (UTC -8)/10pm BRT (UTC-3)/7pm CST (UTC -6).
Nightwish recently announced the rescheduled dates for their UK/European tour. Originally scheduled to take place in May 2021, the shows have been postponed until November and December 2021. Previously purchased tickets will remain valid for all rescheduled dates and support will be provided by Amorphis and Turmion Kätilöt.
