Host and Popestars - Anniversiora Tour

2025 marks the 10th anniversary of Meliora, the critically acclaimed, Grammy Award-winning, and platinum-selling third album by Ghost. In celebration of this milestone, Ireland’s HOST and England’s POPESTARS — two premier Ghost celebration bands — have joined forces for an unprecedented event: ANNIVERSIORA, a double celebration tour like no other.

“We’ve wanted to do something like this for years,” shared one of HOST’s Nameless Ghouls. “Ever since we became aware of each other, we’ve thought it would be amazing to bring two bands together to cover two distinct eras of Ghost. What better occasion than the anniversary of one of Ghost’s best albums?”

HOST will honor Meliora by performing the entire album and selections from the 2016 Popestar EP, all while donning costumes inspired by that era. Meanwhile, POPESTARS will take the stage in costumes from Ghost’s Impera era, performing fan-favorite classics spanning the band’s diverse catalogue.

The Anniversiora tour will hit multiple cities across the UK and Ireland in September and October 2025. The celebration begins on International Ghost Day, September 13th, at The Saltbox in Nottingham, UK. Additional stops include The Sound House, Dublin, on October 31st, and The Limelight, Belfast, on November 1st.

Don’t miss this extraordinary celebration of Meliora’s legacy and Ghost’s incredible music!
