With the ongoing pandemic, it comes as no surprise that Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish has had to postpone their Asia tour to January 2023.

The band was initially set to play three dates in China (Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou) back in 2020 but that has since been expanded into a longer Asian tour which will include additional dates in Hong Kong, Indonesia, Singapore, and Taiwan. 

Nightwish posted the following statement on Facebook on 9 January: “In a couple of days we’d be standing on stage again in Asia! We however, as most of you would have guessed, had to postpone these to 2023. The good news is though that we’ve been able to add additional dates in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and Indonesia!” 

While dates and venues for the tour which is held in support of Nightwish’s 2020 album Human. :II: Nature. have been announced on socials, the ticket sales have not begun yet. 

An official lyric video for their single 'Music' off the latest record is available for streaming on Youtube. 

Listen to their ninth studio album on Spotify.
