Last year, Square Enix and Wildfaery celebrated the 15th anniversary of Kingdom Hearts by launching a worldwide tour of the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra. Kingdom Heart‘s unique combination of Disney characters, Final Fantasy heroes and villains, and original creations has proven to be extremely popular, and the music tour was a huge success. Now, the orchestra is getting ready to go back on tour, and there may be even bigger things ahead for Kingdom Hearts fans.
Via ComicBook.com, the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra: World Tour Encore! will begin on Saturday, June 9, in Los Angeles before heading to Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Boston, Atlanta, Dallas, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Honolulu. Outside of the U.S., the tour will have stops in Canada, Australia, Brazil, Germany, South Korea, and Mexico. (See below for exact dates!)
Kingdom Hearts director Tetsuya Nomura and composer Yoko Shimomura are supervising the tour, and the orchestra will play music from the previously released games in the series. There’s also a good chance fans may get the chance to hear a few selections from Kingdom Hearts 3. After all, at last year’s Los Angeles concerts, a new Kingdom Hearts 3 trailer debuted, so we wouldn’t be surprised if history repeats itself this year.
Additionally, the official site hints that the tour will return in 2019 with a Kingdom Hearts 3-themed program, which should give the series’ music-loving fans another reason to get excited. Pre-sales for this year’s tour have already gone on sale, and the remaining dates will have tickets available on March 13.
