Announcement: 15 year anniversary

Within Temptation

It’s exceeding everything you’ve ever seen, heard or experienced from us before…

And it’s called: Elements.

Since the release of Enter in 1997, things have skyrocketed for us. We were able to share and play our music all over the world and received so much appreciation from you. We got the chance to grow and become Holland’s most successful rock band internationally.

We are celebrating our anniversary with an incredible concert on the 13th of November in Sportpaleis Antwerpen, Belgium. The anniversary show, Elements, will be the most significant event in the history of Within Temptation.

The title represents the kind of music and live shows we are known for – the melodius, crystal clear voice of Sharon, the massive guitar riffs, the orchestral and Celtic influences and the always surprising musical collaborations.

Energetic performance, musical mastery, and visually thrilling elements ranging from impressive set designs to fireworks and specially made films and videos. Everything you have witnessed in the last 15 years will be topped during the anniversary show in Antwerp.

We will share the stage with some unexpected guests and  can already tell you that we will also be accompanied by the renowned Il Novecento Orchestra.

In the upcoming months we will reveal more details about the show but more importantly, we will celebrate our anniversary with you. A lot of exciting things coming up so please keep an eye on our website, newsletter or social media tools to make sure you are the first one to know.

Ticket sales start on Friday the 11th of May at 11 AM (CET).

    i skip you are a dutch band and then you not play your 15 year anniversary
    in belgium. there are a lot of great venue’s in the netherlans( ahoy, ziggodome, gelredome ) so why to belgium for a dutch band to give his 15 year anniversary party. and then also on u teusday you most ask 2 days free from your work and that is not to do for me.

  • http://twitter.com/JimJamJamieJoo Jamie Robson

    This sounds insanely amazing! Definitely gonna be coming over from UK to see this :P

  • http://www.facebook.com/Sjaacko Jaco van der Molen

    This is great news, I’d like to be there! However….
    I must seriously consider whether I can or want to go. I too think it kind of sucks that it is in Belgium and on a tuesday. I agree with peppie here that it a bit weird that a Dutch band is celebrating its anniversary in another country then the Netherlands. What is the reason for this? Though Belgium is close and for me I am “only” 3 hours from Antwerp, this could be quite costly. Taking a day of from work, buy a ticket, getting there and probably stay over night. Lets see if I can make it…

    I hope this show will be recorded, because it is so special and because I probably won’t be able to make it to see the show myself

    Oh Guys, that’s quite amazing! I’m really happy for you and your 15th Birthday, but sad at the same time…Unfortunately I live too far away (South America, Brazil) and would not be able to go to the show due to all it would require (flight tickets, days off from work, tickets for the concert, hotel..). So, I trully wish everybody who’ll be there a GREAT concert! I’m quite sure it’ll be amazing and surprising as you guys are! And PLEASE do consider making this a CD / DVD!!!! = )

    Oh my God…! If Elements are even more wonderful than Black Symphony, how could I survive without a ticket for it? I wish all of You the best… But I would love to hear You there! If I could fly to Belgium, I would be the happiest human in the world… Why can’t the greatest dreams turn to real? )o,=

    A shame I’ll not be able to be there myself, to celebrate with you and other fans, but if this turns into a DVD / CD, I’ll definitely get one and watch / listen to it as if I was there with you =)

    Late last year i finally got to see those guys live. which topped off an awesome year having seeing delain revamp and epica before hand.

    They were awesome the stage show production value, the massive video screen in the back ground. everything about that night blew me away. that one show topped off a amazing year for me gig wise.

    So as one or two others before have said happy anniversery. all the best for the future. hopefully it wont take you another 5 years to see yourselves back in scotland.

  • http://twitter.com/BigBossTt Roberto Velasquez

    Holy shit, Within Temptation, that sounds AWESOME! And people, YES, I’m 110% sure they’ll definitely take out a Live DVD/CD for that concert; they’re having a LIVE orchestra, several guest appearances, it’s their 15th ANNIVERSARY, and I don’t know what else, but it’s going to be fuckin EPIC!…of course, no doubt, and it’s for EVERYONE to see/listen/(and those lucky enough to go) experience!
    I know some of you Dutch fans might be disappointed, but come on, at least some of you guys have more opportunity to see Within Temptation live cause they’re right in your backyard, lol…and they just finished their Theater Tour, which was exclusively in the Netherlands! :P I’m screwed. I live in the U.S.A. When was the last time they were here, on the West Coast? 5 years ago! Lol, that sucks, but that’s why I love to purchase their DCDs/CDs cause they’re so worth it and it’s the second best way to experience a band you’ve never seen live (…yet, lol). I think Within Temptation is looking for a place where ALL Within Temptation fans from around Europe (and the world) can have more accessibility to this special concert and so there’s a fairer chance for EVERYONE to be able to get there and experience such an amazing concert that is to come. I’m so stoked for this, and can’t wait for Within Temptation to reveal more updates. And yes, Within Temptation, congratulations on your 15th. EPIC, Anniversary!

    which was an Awesome damn Great concert, I have the DVD and loving it!
    Probably the best concert I have ever seen, no kidding, it’s amazing!
    I don’t know how you’re going to top that but no doubt in my mind you will!
    Within Temptation is my favourite band and you are so Amazingly Great!
    Really happy for your success and looking forward to the ‘Elements’ DVD/CD!
