Dream Theater are undoubtedly one of the greatest progressive metal artists in the world. With John Petrucci on guitar, John Myung on bass, Jordan Rudess on keyboards and the unmistakable voice of James LaBrie, Dream Theater are still a force of nature even after 40 years. In 2021, the New Yorkers released their 15th studio album, A View from the Top of the World, with which they went on a major world tour. The single The Alien won a Grammy for Best Metal Performance in 2022 and the album reached number 3 in the CH charts. At the end of 2023 came the news that Dream Theater fans had been waiting and hoping for over 10 years - founding member, songwriter and drummer Mike Portnoy was returning to Dream Theater! 

Their An Evening With Dream Theater 40 Anniversary Tour is all about Dream Theater and their unmistakable music of the last 40 years. Their new album, on which Mike Portnoy has been involved from the beginning and who will also be part of the evening, promises everything the progressive metal heart desires; musical epics that dive into the world of Dream Theater on powerful journeys. Over the course of three hours, the masters will show that they are far from being outdated, but rather where they have been for 40 years - as the spearhead of the scene, redefining its musical boundaries.

“This tour is going to be incredibly special for all of us! Each show will surely be filled with anticipation and a variety of emotions. We can’t wait to step on stage together once again and begin this historic celebration of 40 years with everyone this Fall. This is just the beginning, and we will have plenty of more exciting Dream Theater news to share in the coming months,” say Dream Theater.

Look forward to An Evening With Dream Theater 40 Anniversary, on Wednesday, 13 November 2024 at THE HALL Zurich, when Dream Theater bring their hits of the last 40 years back to life. Tickets are available via ticketcorner.ch.
