GHOST Announces ‘2 Big To Rig’ Feature Film Capturing ‘Skeletour’ World Tour
Rock band GHOST have announced "2 Big To Rig", a second feature-length concert film with distributor Trafalgar Releasing, documenting their "Skeletour" world tour. It follows the success of 2024's "Rite Here Rite Now", which topped US hard rock cinema box office charts, and comes as the band takes a break after concluding the tour earlier this year.
The film was shot on 16mm during two sold-out shows at Mexico City's Palacio De Los Deportes in September 2025, in front of nearly 40,000 fans, and focuses purely on the live performance and behind-the-scenes crew footage rather than narrative elements. It features material from GHOST's six albums, including 2025's chart-topping "Skeletá", alongside fan favourites such as "Mary On A Cross". "2 Big To Rig" opens in cinemas and IMAX worldwide from 26 August 2026 for a limited run, with tickets going on sale 23 July.

Explained simply
GHOST is a rock band that has achieved significant commercial success in recent years. In 2024, their first feature-length concert film, "Rite Here Rite Now", proved commercially successful, particularly in hard rock cinema. This demonstrated that the band could attract audiences to theatrical concert releases.
The Skeletour was GHOST's world tour in 2025, featuring sold-out performances in major cities including Mexico City. The tour promoted the band's latest studio album, "Skeletá", which topped charts upon release. The tour represented a significant period of touring success for the band.
Concert films from major rock bands represent an important format in music and cinema. They allow fans who couldn't attend live performances to experience a concert, whilst successful films can generate substantial revenue for artists beyond traditional touring. The commercial success of GHOST's previous concert film has established them as a band capable of attracting theatrical audiences on a large scale.
