Kygo's Upcoming Concert Film 'Back at the Bowl' Promises an Immersive Experience
A Groundbreaking Concert Experience
DJ and music producer Kygo is set to expand his horizons as he launches his highly anticipated concert film, "KYGO: BACK AT THE BOWL." Teamed up with CJ 4DPLEX, renowned for its cutting-edge cinema formats, Kygo's film will hit theaters worldwide on September 26. This film is not simply a recording of his sold-out concert at the iconic Hollywood Bowl; it offers an extraordinary cinematic experience tailored for premium formats.
Directed by the acclaimed filmmaker Sam Wrench, known for his work on popular concert films like "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour" and "Billie Eilish Live at the O2," this production promises to captivate audiences with stunning visuals and expertly remixed sound. Filmed in breathtaking 8K quality with a total of 18 cameras, the movie captures the electrifying energy of Kygo's performance, ensuring that viewers feel every beat and every breath of the live show.
An Immersive Experience Like No Other
The film will be showcased in enhanced formats including SCREENX, 4DX, and traditional 2D screens, providing a variety of viewing options for fans. SCREENX extends the film’s visuals beyond the standard screen, wrapping around the auditorium's walls for a 270-degree immersive experience. This innovative approach means that fans will feel as if they are part of the audience, surrounded by the music and energy of the live performance. Meanwhile, 4DX incorporates sensory effects such as motion, wind, water, and even scents, all synchronized with Kygo's vibrant music to heighten the emotional impact of the concert.
"I’m so excited for fans to experience the magic of last fall’s Hollywood Bowl show in this immersive SCREENX and 4DX experience," Kygo expressed. This concert film is set to include beloved hits from Kygo’s discography, such as Higher Love and It Ain’t Me, along with special guest performances featuring multi-Grammy winners. Ryan Tedder will join Kygo for the live rendition of their collaboration, "Chasing Paradise," while Ava Max and Zara Larsson will perform their respective hits alongside Kygo in what promises to be a riveting show.

Don Savant, CEO of CJ 4DPLEX America, noted, "The unparalleled energy of a live concert comes through beautifully in this film. The panoramic visuals of the SCREENX format augment that ambiance, making this an event not to be missed." The collaboration between Kygo’s team at Palm Tree Pictures and Wrench’s Next of Kin Content not only highlights the film’s artistic merit but also a new era in the way concert films are presented.
