NieR:Orchestra Concert re: 12018 Tour announced (Chicago, London, Bangkok) (Update: 2nd London Performance Added)

[Zhao_Yun]

For the first time there will be Live Concerts of Nier outside of Japan!

The first 4 concerts will be:

• Chicago, USA - 24.01.2020
• London, UK - 02.02.2020
• Bangkok, Thailand - 15. and 16.02.2020

AWR Music Productions who are also organizing the Distant Worlds Final Fantasy concerts are producing this so I am sure there will be more concerts in other locations in the future. Tickets will be available starting on October 10th.

Description from the website:

https://nierconcert.com/

The music of NieR premieres in concert in Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia!
After 4 sold-out Tokyo performances in 2018, European and North American audiences will finally have the chance to experience this multimedia concert phenomenon. AWR Music Productions (producers of Distant Worlds: music from FINAL FANTASY) is proud to partner with renowned video game developer SQUARE ENIX once again to present NieR:Orchestra Concert re: 12018.
These European and North American premiere concerts will be performed by full symphony orchestra and chorus, and will feature the vocal stylings of renowned soloist Emi Evans, under the direction of GRAMMY Award-winner and acclaimed conductor Arnie Roth. NieR director Yoko Taro and composer Keiichi Okabe have created HD video projections especially for these concerts, which will be projected onto giant screens throughout the performance. With these spectacular visuals, accompanied by the sonic power of over 100 musicians on stage, fans will be immersed in the world of NieR like never before!

I've been constantly clicking on the button as well. According to the tweet tickets will go live today though so might have to wait a bit.

[Kain-Nosgoth]

I'll have to take the plane, but I'll probably go to london... but the website needs to work... i'm sure i'm gonna miss the freaking ticket

 

[Lucael]

I wonder how they're going to arrange the vocal songs since most of them are in an invented language, except for ending themes and Alien Invasion.

They work even in live concerts? I'm asking after my experience with FFXIV, choral songs in the game work great but they sounds a bit cheesy live since the lyrics are not real words but sounds that resemble latin words. Usually they translate in concerts like "oh oh oh" or stuff like that.

 

[Rosur]

Really tempting to get a ticket to this though doubt I will go to this on my own.

[Zacmortar]

The only bad thing about this concert is Replicant Nier being the one chosen instead of the superior in every way, non-cliched ugly papa nier

 

[Deleted member 923]

Yoooooooo, I'm tempted to grab London tickets

 

[Fat4all]

[SchroDingerzat]

Well I need to go to this! Totally expect that the HD video projections created for this event will have some more hidden lore.

 

[RetroDLC]

This happens like a month before I relocate to Japan, so I'm going to get a ticket for sure.
...I bet those meet and greets will be expensive as hell.

 

[Snake Eater]

Why come to America if not coming to New York? Would've of loved to go to this

 

[Cordelia]

Hmmm Bangkok. Interesting choice, usually for SEA it's always Singapore.

 

[WhoaIsThatMars]

Went to the show here in Yokohama and if you don't dress up to that show like you're going to a funeral, you done fucked up.

From the Southbank website...

Priority booking available from 10am, Tue 8 Oct
General sale begins at 10am, Wed 9 Oct

It costs £69 for priority membership, something I can't afford in addition to a ticket, but anyway, there's the London info.

Edit: If anyone has the ability to see, how much are the normal and VIP tickets?

 

[LancePrime]

Looks like the main page has updated and tickets are available 10am Wednesday for London, guess I can stop refreshing the page now.

 

[Tiddy]

Okay, wednesday then. Time to set an alarm.

I have a feeling this is going to sell out quickly given Nier's reputation for its music.

Page says:
37£-67£, VIP 120£

Considering that I payed more for kingdom hearts, I would say it's cheap.

 

[Stryder]

Tickets will be on sale on the 10th. Thanks for this

 

[nikos]

Hope it comes to NYC. It would be a nice excuse to visit Chicago, but not in January.

 

[Philippo]

Does anyone know what should we expect in terms of prices for the London concert?
I live in another EU country so i have no idea.

 

[Mairu]

Fingers crossed that I can get tickets for this on Thursday!

Watching this thread in the event they announce California dates.

Ah thanks! The order ticket site shows the prices now.

Honestly going to order a London ticket even though I'm not sure if I'll still live in London come February, this is too good an opportunity to pass on!

 

[Deleted member 923]

VIP tickets include premium seating for the performance, and a post-concert meet and greet with NieR composer Keiichi Okabe, NieR director Yoko Taro, vocal soloist Emi Evans, and conductor Arnie Roth.
