Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Pink Floyd’s iconic album Wish You Were Here.
In 1975, Pink Floyd’s legendary members—Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Rick Wright, and Nick Mason—embarked on a journey to create a follow-up to The Dark Side of the Moon at EMI Studios, now the world-famous Abbey Road Studios. Despite a tumultuous start, what emerged was Wish You Were Here—a six-time Platinum masterpiece that remains one of the greatest rock albums of all time.
Now, 50 years later, Floyd Nation proudly carries the torch, celebrating this milestone with the Wish We Were There Tour! In a full-circle moment, Floyd Nation recently recorded an album at Abbey Road Studios, the first Pink Floyd tribute in history, further solidifying their deep connection to Pink Floyd’s legacy.
Fans will be transported on a sonic and visual journey with an album-inspired setlist and a custom-designed laser and light show created by an award-winning lighting director. Don’t be a lost soul swimming in a fishbowl—this is one show you won’t want to miss!
