Ghost Announce New Big-Screen Film 2 Big To Rig
Ghost have released the trailer for their new concert film, "2 Big to Rig," which will screen in cinemas and IMAX from 26 August via Trafalgar Releasing. The film documents the final two nights of the band's "Skeletour," staged at Mexico City's Palacio de los Deportes in support of their album "Skeletá," offering fans worldwide a chance to see the elaborate production before the band takes an extended break.
The tour, described as Ghost's most ambitious staging yet, was confined to North and South America and Europe and banned phones inside venues, making the cinema release the main way for other fans to experience it. Unlike the band's previous film "Rite Here Rite Now," which blended concert footage with narrative theatrical elements, "2 Big to Rig" focuses purely on the concert performance and production, shot on 16mm film. Tickets went on sale on 23 July, with Trafalgar's Kimberly Freuh calling it a fitting farewell to this era of the band; full regional screening details are available at 2BigToRig.com.
In short
- Ghost's concert film "2 Big to Rig" hits cinemas 26 August
- Captures final two Skeletour nights in Mexico City
- Marks a farewell before Ghost's upcoming extended break
Explained simply
Ghost is a rock band who recently concluded their "Skeletour," an elaborate concert tour in support of their album "Skeletá." The new film "2 Big to Rig" documents the final two nights of this tour, which took place at Mexico City's Palacio de los Deportes venue.
The tour represented Ghost's most ambitious staging to date but was limited to North and South America and Europe, making it inaccessible to fans elsewhere. The venues also banned mobile phones, preventing attendees from recording performances themselves. The film's cinema release therefore gives fans worldwide the chance to experience the full production on the big screen.
Unlike Ghost's previous concert film "Rite Here Rite Now," which combined concert footage with theatrical narrative elements, "2 Big to Rig" focuses purely on the live performance and production design, shot on 16mm. The release comes as the band prepares for an extended break following the tour.
