US Prog Metal giants Dream Theater have announced the Europen and UK leg of their “40th Anniversary World Tour” which takes place in October and November, running into 2025 for the US and the rest of the world.
The tour includes an opening night at the O2 Arena in London on October 20 and runs through to Amsterdam’s AFAS Live on November 24.
The tour – presented as An Evening With Dream Theater – is the first outing since drummer Mike Portnoy returned to the band’s lineup last year, joining his old bandmates, vocalist James LaBrie, bassist John Myung, guitarist John Petrucci, and keyboardist Jordan Rudess.
“This tour is going to be incredibly special for all of us,” the band exclaim. “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.”
The band are continuing to work on the new, untitled album, which will be their first with Portnoy since the release of “Black Clouds & Silver Linings” in 2009.
