LOS ANGELES, May 9, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The critically
acclaimed Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience will
return this fall for a 20-city amphitheater tour, bringing the
music of Emmy® Award-winning Game of Thrones composer Ramin
Djawadi to stunning new life at outdoor theatres across
North America. As we say goodbye
to one of the biggest shows and scores in television history,
relive the greatest musical pieces and footage from all eight
seasons in an immersive outdoor concert experience. Tickets for the
tour will be available HERE starting Monday, May 13, 2019, at 10:00am local time and a full list of dates can
be found below.
Featuring special appearances by Ramin himself at Northwell
Health at Jones Beach Theater in New York
City, FivePoint Amphitheatre in Irvine, CA and Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA, the tour will stop at notable
outdoor venues across North
America. Having first conceptualized the tour several years
ago, Ramin will be reworking and redeveloping the musical and
visual elements of the concert to create a brand new live
experience that encompasses fan-favorite pieces from the entirety
of Game of Thrones. The tour will include new musical
arrangements from the series' 8th and final season such as the "The
Night King" theme, Ramin's epic 9-minute composition that went
viral immediately after debuting on the show. Within days, the
track garnered millions of streams across the internet, reached the
top 4 most downloaded songs on iTunes and the top 18 most watched
videos on YouTube, and dropped the jaws of audiences and critics
alike:
"A symphonic spectacular." - The New York Times
"When Game of Thrones Plays Sad Piano Music, It's Time to
Freak Out." - Vulture
"In a series known for truly cinematic music, this was still
a series highlight...Djawadi's finest on the show." -
Nerdist
"[Ramin] really outdid himself here with the soaring,
searching score that gave the episode its own unique flavor while
also selling its most emotional beats. It's a true symphony at
times." - Indiewire
The inaugural run of the Game of Thrones Live Concert
Experience Featuring Ramin Djawadi kicked off in
North America in February of 2017
and was praised by audiences and critics alike as a must-see
spectacle for fans of the television series. Following the success
of the tour, Ramin embarked on a European run during the spring of
2018 before returning back for a second North American tour in the
fall of 2018. To date, the show has amassed a total of 75 arena
concerts across the globe. The Guardian described the show
as "Westeros brought to dazzling life." Mashable called it
"an epic musical journey," while the New
York Times praised it as "a symphonic spectacular."
The tour, produced and promoted exclusively by Live Nation in
partnership with HBO Licensing & Retail, will continue to use
innovative music tour production and video technology that will
recreate the various realms found throughout Westeros and Essos as
well as showcase footage from the series in addition to new imagery
created exclusively for the concert.
Ramin has won one Emmy Award® and been nominated for six Emmy®
Awards and two GRAMMY® Awards. Versatility has defined his career,
from celebrated television scores for Game of Thrones,
Westworld, Jack Ryan,
and Prison Break to feature films such as A Wrinkle in
Time, Mountain Between Us, Slender Man, The
Great Wall, Pacific
Rim, Iron Man and Clash of the Titans.
Ramin has even composed scores for blockbuster video games
including Medal of Honor, Gears of War 4 and the
upcoming Gears of War 5.
