Hans Zimmer is redefining the live concert experience once again as the multiple Oscar- and GRAMMY-winning composer returns to Melbourne this October with a visionary new arena production: Hans Zimmer Live – The Next Level.
The Next Level sees Zimmer push the boundaries of sound, staging, and scale, marking his boldest live chapter yet. With its newly designed, striking architectural stage concept – blending electronic sound design with powerful orchestration – The Next Level reflects Zimmer’s relentless drive to push artistic boundaries, explore new paths, and continually evolve his sound and vision.
Performing alongside his powerhouse 19-piece band and featuring the esteemed vocals of Australian sensation Lisa Gerrard amongst other vocalists, Zimmer’s ambitious new live production has already stormed Europe, completing 50 sold-out arena shows across 17 countries and thrilling more than 600,000 fans.
