The show first debuted at The O2 in December 2016 and has returned to huge crowds every year since – with the Heritage Orchestra putting a classical spin on a selection of rave classics.

Next November and December, Tong will be joined by the full orchestra, conductor Jules Buckley, and host of guests for reworkings of house hits like ‘Love Can’t Turn Around’ and ‘Right Here Right Now’.

The tour will kick off in Cardiff on November 23, 2022, eventually finishing up with two dates at London’s O2 Arena on December 2 and 3. Tickets go on general sale this Friday (December 10) at 9.30am GMT here.
