From a press release:

It was announced today that Brit Floyd, hailed as the “world’s greatest” live tribute to Pink Floyd, will be back at the F.M. Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, March 19 as part of their 2022 World Tour that features selections from “The Dark Side of the Moon,” “The Wall,” and more, including the iconic song “Echoes,” performed “note for note” and in its entirety.

“It really is as good as they say – believe the hype and don’t miss it!” the Los Angeles Times said, calling it “the perfect rock show.”

Doors at the Kirby Center (71 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre) open at 6:30 p.m., and the music starts at 8 p.m.

Tickets, which are $40, $49, $59, and $159 (VIP meet and greet sound check experience), plus applicable fees, go on sale this Friday, Dec. 17 at 10 a.m. and will be available at the Sundance Vacations Box Office at the F.M. Kirby Center, online at kirbycenter.org and ticketmaster.com, and by phone at 570-826-1100. A Kirby Member pre-sale begins Wednesday, Dec. 15 at 10 a.m.

“The World’s Greatest Pink Floyd Show” returns to the stage in 2022 to perform its brand new production, including highlights from “The Wall,” “The Dark Side of the Moon,” “Wish You Were Here,” “Animals,” and “The Division Bell.” It also features a show-stopping 23-minute performance of the iconic era-defining song “Echoes,” written 50 years ago from Pink Floyd’s breakthrough 1971 album “Meddle.”

Having played over 1,000 shows since its launch in Liverpool, England in January of 2011, Brit Floyd has circled the world; sold out tours across Europe, North America, South America, and the Middle East; and performed concerts at some of the world’s greatest venues, including London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall, the awe-inspiring Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, the historic Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, and the “Showplace of the Nation,” New York City’s Radio City Music Hall in Manhattan.

The Brit Floyd show has become a phenomenon, widely regarded as “the world’s greatest rock tribute show” by faithfully recreating the scale and pomp of the final Pink Floyd tour in 1994, complete with a stunning multi-million-dollar light show, iconic circle screen, lasers, inflatables, and theatrics.
