In September 2025, Tilburg in the Netherlands was once again transformed into Ayreon City, as six spectacular shows took over the 013 venue — or what is fast becoming known as “Home” by Ayreonauts around the world.
All 15,000 tickets were snapped up within minutes, with fans traveling from an astonishing 71 countries to witness the latest Ayreon live experience: the 30th Anniversary — An Amazing Flight Through Time. This will now be released on May 22, 2026 via Music Theories Recordings/Artone.
The setlist spanned three decades of Ayreon history—from beloved fan favorites to songs never performed live before, with highlights from Arjen Lucassen’s many side projects woven seamlessly into the experience. Arjen has unveiled the first official video for the live performance of, “Loser,” featuring Mike Mills, Marcela Bovio and Irene Jansen.

The event marked 30 years since the release of Ayreon’s debut album, “The Final Experiment” (1995). This massive, state-of-the-art production involved over 100 cast and crew members, featuring a one-of-a-kind stage design, stunning visuals, and spectacular special effects that elevated the show beyond a concert into a true theatrical happening.
Ayreon’s 30th anniversary celebration in Tilburg was a unique moment in time—etched forever into the hearts and minds of those who experienced it live. With this upcoming release, the wider world will finally have the chance to step into the Ayreon Universe and experience the magic from the comfort of one’s own home.
