Following on from two sold out performances at London’s Royal Albert Hall, a brand new show celebrating the music from some of the most iconic video games of all-time will tour the UK in May 2024.
Video Games in Concert is a critically acclaimed concert series that features one of the world’s premier composers of video games scores, Eímear Noone, who is responsible for some of the most enduring soundscapes on World of Warcraft and other best-selling video games.
Through this medium, Eímear’s music has reached over 100 million people, continually inspiring players to invent and build new worlds for nearly fifteen years. She has sold out stadiums touring video game music, from Madison Square Garden in New York to the Bird’s Nest Olympic Stadium in Beijing, and in 2020 she became the first woman ever to conduct at the Academy Awards for their 94th annual ceremony.
Featuring awe-inspiring scores from classics such as The Last of Us, Uncharted, and World of Warcraft as well as new arrangements from recent hit games including God of War: Ragnarök, Starfield, and much, much more, this series is sure to unite gamers and music-lovers alike.
Accompanied by the phenomenal Heritage Orchestra, the concert will be held in magnificent venues in Brighton, Liverpool, Wolverhampton, Manchester, and Bournemouth.
