Marillion have a long tradition of performing festival shows and at Christmas 2022 even treated their subscribers to the limited-edition free live double album, Yule Be Glad, which contained a recording of their ‘Light At The End of The Tunnel’ show from the Hammersmith Eventim Apollo in November 2021.
At present, the band are wrapping up the last of their Marillion Weekend dates with a show at the Berlin Tempodrom in Germany on 23 June. H Natural solo shows from vocalist Steve Hogarth are scheduled to take place over the summer and into the autumn, and guitarist Steve Rothery will also be back on the road in September and early October.

Packed full of bonus content, the album has had a fresh 2023 Stereo Remix by Mike Hunter, alongside a new documentary on the 3CD/Blu-Ray, liner notes by Rich Wilson, and brand-new artwork.
