Hans Zimmer has announced that, as part of his 2023 European tour, he will perform a series of arena gigs in the United Kingdom and Ireland next year.
The award-winning composer will return to Europe for a 32-date tour that will feature two gigs at The O2 in London, as well as dates in Manchester and Dublin, following the huge success of his recent tour across Europe.
Zimmer, his band and the Odessa Opera Orchestra & Friends will perform several of the composer’s worldwide hits in the “groundbreaking auditory and visual event.” Music from Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Dark Knight, Interstellar, The Lion King, The Last Samurai and more films are used in the newly arranged concert suites.
Zimmer recently performed in the United Kingdom in March, when he collaborated with the Odessa Opera Orchestra of Ukraine at London’s O2 Arena.
The film composer opened the event with an emotional tribute to his orchestra as well as all Ukrainians who are suffering as a result of the current conflict in the country.
The orchestra then joined Zimmer in performing the theme song.
