The Pokémon Symphonic Evolutions concert saw sold-out performances across North America last year. Following this success the concert is heading over to the UK for its European Premiere on Sunday 20th December at the Eventim Apollo Hammersmith in London.
With Susie Benchasil Seiter conducting the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra in London, Pokémon: Symphonic Evolutions combines a full orchestra and large-screen video projections to bring to life newly expanded musical themes and visual material directly inspired by the game.
Officially endorsed by The Pokémon Company International and produced by Princeton Entertainment, Pokémon: Symphonic Evolutions features music composed by Chad Seiter (based on the game themes composed by Junichi Masuda) and animation conceptualized and directed by Jeron Moore, the same team behind The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses.
Performances of Pokémon: Symphonic Evolutions create an opportunity for fans, old and new, to catch, battle and trade Pokémon from their favourite games. There'll also be cosplay opportunities, as well as the opportunity to meet Susie, Chad, and Jeron during the after show poster signing.
If you plan on attending, it's worth booking fast as this unique concert is likely to sell out very quickly.

OMG OMG! YES!
Unfortunatly a little too expensive for that time of year, when I have a thousand presents to buy.
Ah, maybe next time...
I don't get it, but my ex is rubbing in how great it is that he's going with his man because they have money. Different strokes I guess.
Hmm, so lots and lots of battle themes? Go Ichinose, Hitomi Sato and Shota Kageyama need recognition too!
Junichi Masuda typically handles the battle themes in the series post-Gen I, of course.
Such a good show! I'm not even that big of a pokemon fan and I had a blast! Enjoy it UK people!
I'm going to be there
Sounds fun. I don't know anyone that would want to see this with me, nor anyone who I could emotionally blackmail to go there, so I'll give it a miss.
Oh look, London...
I'm not that big into music (i listen to songs, but i'm bad at remembering lyrics, and just don't care that much) and haven't beaten a pokemon game in 15 years, and yet....balls this was an amazing show. Hearing a 30-50 piece orchestra playing the music while the videos and lights play is a great experience. Especially Lavender Town, if they play it
I saw this in the states back in July and can say with no hesitation that it was FANTASTIC and tons of fun, with a nice tribute to Iwata at the end. I highly recommend it to those over in the UK!!!!
Ordered. So excited I ordered close to the front front. X3
Come on, you´re so close to the Netherlands right now. All it´ll take is a trip with the ferry, or a day-long bus trip via the undersea train to France. Heck, take the airplane for all I care, but PLEASE ALSO COME TO THE NETHERLANDS SOON!!!!!
They'll be in my country next month. So close and yet so far
Edit: also whoa, A Wild Serebii Appeared.
Tickets booked and it so happens to be on my birthday! What perfect timing
Maybe they can actually have it come to more locations in North America, too? My brother and I were incredibly excited when we first heard about this, but it hasn't been anywhere near our state since it started. Assuming that I had the money for tickets by the time orders went up, I'd be one of the first people to order for a showing in my state.
I am so excited for next year! I read this article http://topshelfgaming.net/its-a-good-time-to-be-a-pokemon-fan/ talking about how 2016 will be the year of Pokemon. Now with this update it truly is! Buying my ticket asap
This article doesn't tell much more than your article already, but I'm sharing it for the great playlist at the end. Route 04 theme FTW! http://topshelfgaming.net/celebrate-pokemon-music-pokemon-symphonic-evolutions-locations-and-dates-reminders/
I just missed this in Aus and I'll be in Scotland for Xmas by then. It's just not meant to be 😩
As much as I would love to go. after seeing Symphony of Goddesses in April in London, I know I'll skip this one. Unfortunately Nintendo fans cannot behave during orchestra concerts, and keep shouting every 15-20sec during the performance, not to mention eating mc donalds, drinking beer and overall acting uncivilized. Shame, really
@Serebii no surprise there.
I couldn't go to the one in my state was out of town then FML
