GHOST has announced its second full-length concert film, "2 Big To Rig," which captures two sold-out performances from the band's "Skeletour" world tour at Mexico City's Palacio de los Deportes in September 2025. Shot on 16mm film and set for a worldwide theatrical release beginning August 26, the project will screen in IMAX where available, with tickets going on sale July 23 via 2BigToRig.com.
The film documents nearly 40,000 fans across two performances at the historic arena, following a canceled opening date that forced the band to condense its planned run into two shows. GHOST's current lineup, fronted by masked frontman Papa V Perpetua alongside the anonymous Nameless Ghouls, drew from the band's full six-album catalog for the sets, including material from 2025's chart-topping "Skeletá," which debuted at No. 1.
"GHOST captured the final nights of an extraordinary campaign, creating a nostalgic experience and a fitting farewell to an era for fans," said Kymberli Frueh, executive vice president at Trafalgar Releasing, the film's distributor. The release marks GHOST's second collaboration with Trafalgar following 2024's "Rite Here Rite Now," which topped global box office charts among concert films and produced a soundtrack that reached No. 1.
"Skeletour" itself wrapped in February 2026 after roughly 70 shows spanning North America, Europe and Mexico, cementing GHOST's status as one of the biggest draws in modern metal's theatrical wing. The Swedish band, known for its Satanic-clergy imagery, elaborate stage productions and genre-crossing songwriting that blends doom, glam and arena rock, has built an increasingly mainstream audience over the past decade without softening its macabre visual identity.
With "2 Big To Rig," GHOST continues a pattern of turning its live shows into standalone theatrical events rather than simple tour documentation, treating each concert film as a bookend to a specific album cycle. For a band whose stagecraft and narrative concept — a rotating cast of "Papa" frontmen leading a fictional clergy — has always been central to its appeal, the format gives fans outside the band's biggest markets a chance to experience the "Skeletour" spectacle in full, on a scale even arena seating couldn't match.
