David Gilmour, renowned for his roles as guitarist and vocalist for Pink Floyd, is set to release his latest concert film, *Live at the Circus Maximus, Rome*, alongside the live album *The Luck and Strange Concerts*. These releases, slated for October 17, 2025, encapsulate the essence of Gilmour's 2024 *Luck and Strange* tour, showcasing his unique blend of classic Pink Floyd hits and solo tracks. Directed by Gavin Elder, the concert film offers a captivating portrayal of Gilmour’s performances at the ancient Roman venue, Circus Maximus. The theatrical release will be preceded by screenings in cinemas and IMAX theaters worldwide starting September 17, with tickets available from August 6.

The *Luck and Strange* tour, Gilmour's first major tour since 2016, served not only as a celebration of his new solo work but also as a retrospective of his storied career with Pink Floyd.

The forthcoming live album *The Luck and Strange Concerts* is available as a 4-LP vinyl box set or a 2-CD set, each accompanied by a 24-page book.

The Blu-ray and DVD editions of *Live at the Circus Maximus, Rome*, will include additional unseen footage, documentaries, and music videos, as well as high-resolution audio mixes in Dolby Atmos, guaranteeing an immersive experience for fans.
