There wasn't a London venue for the 2018 tour though - I specifically remember due to having to travel to Italy to see the show! Will definitely be picking up tickets for this tour though

The last tour was actually an extension of the previous tour. my guess is reception wasn't as good for an encore
Anyway, I shall be going to the London show as well! 

[2 quid is good 2,209]

Should try my very best to make it to London, its less than 30 minutes away from me!

It was just after the launch of 2.8 - so must have been 2017. I remember because the audience went nuts when the orchestra played the final boss theme from 0.2 ?

I’ve seen lots of “films with orchestra” type shows and this was definitely the best one yet.

This is something I feel I should go to, given how much I like the music of KH. But I've never even been to London ?

If you like the music then this is an absolute must. Live and fully orchestrated character/world/battle themes beautifully complemented by carefully crafted footage from all the games on a big screen. As well as the big overarching KH themes. Plus you are surrounded by hundreds of people who love the games as much as you do. It’s honestly a fantastic experience ??? even my partner, who has never played a KH game, really enjoyed himself.

You'll be alright! We are planning to organize another KH13 Meetup for London!

I live in Orlando Florida, but I don't see that city on the schedule.  The next best city is Atlanta.  I've never been to any of the KH Concerts.  I'm really hoping I can go this year.  I just checked the link, Orlando is listed on the site schedule.

Apologies, I have now put it in! Thanks!

I'd love to go so badly but I live way too far away from any of these states in the US :/. Hopefully they'll do more dates that are at least closer to my home state if they do more after these ones . I hope anyone who goes to them has a boat load of fun though ^-^

Why am I so freaking brooooke!? DX

It does sound great, I'd love to hear KH music live like that.

That's pretty cool. That's something I would both want to, and be frightened of, going to. lol.

[Ultima Spark 753]

Watch as the Sydney show is at night again…*sigh*

[Hallowseve 143]

I'm VERY excited for this. In fact, I may actually attend. I've never been to a concert before so why not start with some of the greatest video game music of all time? Like I said, I'm excited for this. I also hope they release an album after the orchestra performances conclude, like they did with -First Breath- and -World Tour-. 

[Javelin434 3,164]

I was there for the concert in 2018, and I intend to be there again this year!

[Merilly 438]

I went to the one in London in 2017 and Munich in 2018, so this time it will be Cologne :D. It's actually convenient for those attending the gamescom since it's taking place on the last day of the convention.

I already booked a room and will immediately buy the tickets when they become available. >_< I'm so excited since I absolutely adored the other two concerts. Even if there weren't many differences, but hearing it live is just such an emotional experience and both times, they performed just brilliantly. The one in London felt a bit more precise but they were still so worth it. 

I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who hasn't gone and has the possibility to attend one. It's well worth the money and a unique kind of experience you won't be able to witness every day.

-casually wonders if I can afford to go to the New York concert-

I'm sad I've missed every other Kingdom Hearts Orchestrated concert to date and would love to finally catch one!
