Dream Theater Partner with AMC for ‘Quarantième: Live À Paris’ Screenings
Dream Theater was made for the big screen. Everything those fools do is huge, from winning Grammies to putting on some of the most stimulating performances ever. One of those was captured in Quarantième: Live À Paris, their live document of their November 23, 2024 concert at Adidas Arena in Paris, France during their 40th-anniversary headlining tour. It won’t be the same as being there in person obviously, but you’ll be able to catch Quarantième in AMC Theatres almost a year-to-date later.
Screenings of the concert film will be held at at 7:00 p.m. local time in cities like Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco among others. With a runtime of 175 minutes, the film will be presented in 4k Ultra High-Definition Video and Immersive Atmos Audio. You’ll even be able to snag and exclusive color vinyl and event-specific merchandise by scanning a QR code on display inside the participating theaters.
Tickets for the screening are $18.00 and can be purchased on the AMC website.
On the film, guitarist John Petrucci said:
“From the moment we announced our 40th-anniversary tour, we knew it would be a very special event for both the band and our fans and must be captured. With this release, our performance in Paris is presented so beautifully in both stunning audio and video and really encapsulates this momentous occasion for all to enjoy.”
Drummer Mike Portnoy added:
“We always knew this tour would be unforgettable because not only were we celebrating four decades since forming the band, but also the reunion of the band’s classic lineup. The excitement and emotions between us and our fans at each and every show were palpable and totally off the charts! The night captured here in Paris was an epic evening that we can now share with the whole world to celebrate this incredible tour.”
With artwork created by longtime collaborator Hugh Syme, Quarantième: Live À Paris will come in several formats including limited deluxe 3CD+3Blu-ray artbook, with 68 pages of photos and artwork as well as an additional Blu-ray of bonus material.
