After one packed-to-the-rafters gig on North American soil held at the Gibson in Los Angeles this past January, Europe's most notorious and revered symphonic Metallers Nightwish will return to the U.S. for a full tour. The band will support the recently released and majestic 'Imaginaerum'.
Tickets for the much-anticipated trek, which launches Sept. 12 in Atlanta before snaking through the rest of the country and wrapping in Florida on Oct. 14, go on sale on May 5. Kamelot will provide direct support.
This is the band's only planned tour of North America, so it's sure to be a hot ticket for the Nightwish faithful.
VIP packages will be offered in the following cities: Philadelphia, Worcester, Montreal, Columbus , Chicago, Sauget, San Francisco, Anaheim, Austin, New Orleans and Ft. Lauderdale. The packages include one hour early entry, a meet and greet and signed commemorative poster, so it's certainly an enticing offering for diehards.
