Nightwish To Record South American Tour Dates For Upcoming DVD Release


Nightwish has two massive shows coming up in Brazil and Argentina for their throng of South American fans. Those shows, one in São Paulo, Brazil (September 28 at Tom Brasil) and one in Buenos Aires, Argentina (September 30 at Estadio Cubierto Malvinas Argentinas) will be filmed for an upcoming DVD release from their label Nuclear Blast. Delain will be the direct support. Nightwish is on the road supporting their recent album Decades which released last March. The band recently headlined Bloodstock Open Air in the UK.

Keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen commented:

“The majority of these songs that we are doing on this tour are never gonna be played again, I think, so it’s a good idea to immortalize them.”

Holopainen and Nightwish have begun writing their next album, with recording planned for 2019 and release tentatively for 2020.
