Back in 2015, Ubisoft took their all-conquering action adventure franchise to London, as the world of Assassin’s Creed Syndicate played out. Now, Assassin’s Creed is heading back with an adventure like no other.
Come May 2024, Ubisoft and Overlook Events will be taking the Assassin’s Creed brand on the road, heading to the Royal Festival Hall on London’s South Bank with the Assassin’s Creed Symphonic Adventure. And you can buy tickets right now.
Taking place on Wednesday 29th and Thursday 30th May 2024, the Assassin’s Creed Symphonic Adventure brings together the best bits of the AC franchise and combines with with a full orchestra and choir. The result? A unique and immersive concert experience that focuses on the musical journey of Assassin’s Creed.
Assassin’s Creed London
Assassin’s Creed Symphonic Adventure takes you from the ancient origins, through to the most modern-day of Animus settings. Telling tales and delivering spectacular recreations of its worlds. Assassin’s Creed is rich in history, and it’ll all play out before your eyes.
In this original concert performance, the narrative of the games is at the heart of the music experience. The audience will be able to follow each game with its individual musical identity, accompanied by video montages on screen, perfectly synchronized with the orchestra, choir, and soloists.
These new London dates come off the back of four successful concerts elsewhere, including a world premiere in Paris. But folk who attended those wouldn’t have found anything connected with Assassin’s Creed Mirage. Whilst attendees in London will be the first to discover a brand-new section fully dedicated to that game.
The show will be performed by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra. Conducted by Adrian Rondá Sampayo, who previously brought together the concert in Paris and Barcelona: “ACSA is an amazing experience. Everything you can imagine is in this concert. As a conductor, it’s such a privilege to be able to enjoy this incredible music.“
The most iconic of composers
Assassin’s Creed Symphonic Adventure is supported and praised by the composers of the franchise. In London, the show will be attended by The Flight, composers of the marvellous Assassin’s Creed Odyssey soundtrack. The duo, formed by Alexis Smith and Joe Henson declared: “The Flight are thrilled to be in London with Overlook Events and Ubisoft to celebrate the music of the Assassin’s Creed series. It’s always fantastic to experience the music of the games coming to life in a live venue along with the fans of the franchise. This should be a great evening.”
Further the iconic composer Jesper Kyd (Assassin’s Creed, Assassin’s Creed II, Brotherhood, Revelations and Valhalla) has created a world exclusive track called From Depths of History, especially for Assassin’s Creed Symphonic Adventure. It introduces the concert in the most moving way. He says: “A big thank you to Ubisoft and Overlook Events for creating the amazing Assassin’s Creed Symphonic Adventure concert tour, which I attended in Paris. I hope Assassin’s Creed fans all over the world get to experience this!”
