Fresh from his headline performance at this years sell out Creamfields Festival, and following the release of his fourth album 'Kaleidoscope', the world’s No.1 DJ Tiësto returns to the Northwest with his retina scorching live show.
Tiësto is a man of “firsts”. He was the first DJ to sell out dates at Brixton Academy (two nights in a row), Alexandra Palace, the O2 Arena, and last summer he was the first DJ to headline and sell-out a truly wondrous show at Victoria Park, London to 25,000 fans. He is the only DJ ever to sell out a three-month residency at Privilege in Ibiza last summer, where he played to over 100,000 people and now Tiësto is back in the UK, to perform a series of very special arena shows.
And, if the sell-out shows that took place throughout America earlier this Autumn are anything to go by, the UK leg of the ‘Kaleidoscope’ tour promises to be one of the most extravagant tours that the UK have ever seen. These shows are no-holds-barred, off the wall productions hosted by the world’s premiere DJ.
In fact, they don’t exceed expectations so much as blow them wide open. No expense is spared as his live shows transform into fantastical celebrations of dance music itself. Visuals are kicked up into another level entirely, lightshows beam out as if into space, and of course Tiësto’s wondrously euphoric brand of dance reduces the audience to a sweaty frenzy.
