# Ghost concert film “2 Big To Rig” > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/ghost-concert-film-2-big-to-rig > Updated: 2026-08-31T09:03:46.000Z. Sources: 26. Developments: 7. Swedish rock band Ghost’s second concert film, 2 Big To Rig, captures two sold-out Skeletour shows filmed on 16 mm at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes in September 2025. The filming occurred during the final leg of a 70-show world tour that concluded in February 2026; a planned third night in Mexico City was cancelled due to illness. Produced with Trafalgar Releasing and directed by Amir Chamdin, the film utilizes a 16 mm format to create a nostalgic, high-contrast visual style reminiscent of 1980s VHS tapes. Executive VP Kymberli Frueh stated that the 16 mm film creates “a nostalgic experience and an appropriate farewell for this era of the band.” The film includes material from all six Ghost albums, backstage footage, and the only professionally recorded performances of frontman Papa V Perpetua and the Nameless Ghouls from the phone-free tour. It features songs from the 2025 Billboard 200-topping album Skeletá, as well as hits like “Mary On A Cross,” “Kiss the Go-Goat,” and “The Future Is a Foreign Land.” Following the announcement of the audio companion, the film and its accompanying ‘2 Big To Rig (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)’ were released on 26 August 2026 via Loma Vista Recordings. The film is being presented in IMAX theaters worldwide for a limited time. In Japan, the film is scheduled for theatrical screenings starting 10 September in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka, followed by a nationwide release on 23 September across 26 theaters. Attendees for the September 10 and 23 screenings will receive a paper mask modeled after the character ‘Papa V Perpetua’. A special event is also planned for 23 September at Shinjuku Wald 9, featuring a discussion on Ghost and the history of black and death metal with Mirai Kawashima and music critic Tomoyuki Yamazaki. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-31: Ghost live film ‘2 BIG TO RIG’ to hold theatrical screenings in Japan Ghost's live film ‘2 BIG TO RIG’, documenting their Mexico City concerts, will have theatrical screenings in Japan this September, featuring special guest appearances and attendee gifts. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ghost-live-film-2-big-to-rig-to-hold-theatrical-screenings-in-japan ### 2026-08-26: Ghost releases ‘2 Big To Rig’ concert film and soundtrack Ghost has released ‘2 Big To Rig’, a concert film and soundtrack documenting their Skeletour, filmed in 16mm at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ghost-releases-2-big-to-rig-concert-film-and-soundtrack ### 2026-08-24: Ghost announces ‘2 Big To Rig’ concert film and soundtrack Ghost has announced the August 26 theatrical release of their concert film ‘2 Big To Rig’ and a companion soundtrack, recorded live in Mexico City during the ‘Skeletour’. 9 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/ghost-announces-2-big-to-rig-concert-film-and-soundtrack ### 2026-08-19: Ghost releases preview clip for ‘2 Big To Rig’ concert film Ghost has released a live clip of ‘Umbra’ from their upcoming concert film ‘2 Big To Rig’, filmed during their sold-out Mexico City shows.
