Apocalyptica once again present a novelty – for the first time in the band’s history, the globally successful cello rockers are going on tour with a classical orchestra. The ambitious production with the prestigious Finnish “Avanti! Orchestra” will premier in March 2014.
Apocalyptica have played over 1,000 concerts in more than 50 countries, released 7 studio albums and worked with renowned artists like Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Gavin Rossdale (Bush), Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Ville Valo (HIM), and Till Lindemann (Rammstein). The university graduate musicians, whose signature feature is to constantly explore uncharted territory, started to blend rock and metal with classical music in the early nineties, celebrating worldwide success until today.
In 2014, Apocalyptica will go on tour with a classical orchestra for the first time in their career. The collaboration with the Finnish “Avanti! Orchestra” is a long-cherished project, premiering in Finland live next March. The set will solely consist of instrumentally performed Apocalyptica songs, especially arranged for the band and the 25-piece orchestra. Following shows in Finland, the tour will proceed to Russia, Germany, Poland, Belarus and the Baltic states. Presales for these unique live events will commence from May 23rd – for now, tickets will be available via Apocalyptica.com exclusively.

A Happy New Year To All Of You!
We hope you had a wonderful Christmas time with your friends and family as well as a blasting night to start 2012!
We are super excited to start our Latin American tour in a few days. It has been years since we met all of you in this part of the world...
Unfortunately within the last weeks we faced many difficulties with the concert promoter who was hired to do the shows in Chile and Brazil. Since weeks he ignores our team now which ends in not even knowing venue addresses in Brazil. All this costs us a lot of money we loose now. And since we can not guarantee a show as of today we need to cancel both, the planned shows in Brazil and Chile.
We can not say whether tickets will be re-imbursed or not since the promoter is not speaking to us since days now. Please check with your local ticket office.
We are very disappointed about this news. But we work hard now to re-schedule concerts in Brazil and Chile as soon as possible - with different people promoting the shows!
Some of you have purchased VIP tickets for the shows via our Pledge campaign for the photo book. You will receive a personal e-mail. Please look out for this.
All others, who are not effected by the cancellation we are looking forward to see you all very very soon!

Apocalyptica have played over 1000 shows in their career and visited more than 50 countries around the world. To give their fans an insight into their world on tour, the band took their friend and photographer Ville Akseli Juurikkala with them to capture the special moments and the everday life during their „7th Symphony Tour“.
The result will be released as a photo book.
But Apocalyptica wants to involve the fans even more, therefore they are cooperating with Pledge Music. Founded in 2008 by musician Benji Rogers, Pledge Music offers artists a structure to make projects possible solely by the direct support of their fans, and at the same time helps raising money for charities. Via so-called “pledges”, the fans ‘promise’ to contribute to a certain project in exchange for an issue of the product as soon as it is finished.
To quote the band:
“You as our fans have always been supportive and now we want to share the process of making this book with you. With every single “pledge”, you not only support the book’s release, but also help raising money for a good cause. In addition, you’ll receive an eBook with images, that didn’t make it to the printed version, and secure the chance of getting special merchandise, signed memorabilia and
exclusive bonus material. And we dug deep to find interesting stuff for you ... Thanks a lot for your support, we hope you’ll like the book as much as we do!”

Os finlandeses APOCALYPTICA publicaram na semana passada no Twitter e na página do Facebook que, devido a um problema de saúde de Perttu Kivilaakso e após consultar diversos médicos, tiveram que adiar a tournê pelos Estados Unidos para março do ano que vem.
Para garantir que Perttu recupere completamente, alguns shows na França também foram remarcados para abril. A banda deve retomar a agenda de shows em 22 de fevereiro, na Eslovênia.
