Dream Theater Launching Parasomnia Tour

05-20-2025

(PFA) On the heels of their successful 2025 40th Anniversary sold-out North American tour that wrapped at Radio City Music Hall in March, GRAMMY-winning, progressive music titans Dream Theater are announcing another run of dates in the United States.

As referenced nightly from the stage on the last run, the upcoming tour will be An Evening With Dream Theater that will celebrate the band's recent chart-topping 16th studio album, Parasomnia.

The tour is scheduled for 30 cities across the United States and kicks off September 5th in Reading, PA and runs through October 25th where it wraps in Long Island, NY. The tour will make stops in Orlando, FL; Detroit, MI; Kansas City, MO and Providence, RI among others.

Dream Theater will be performing their latest album in its entirety as well as classics and fan favorites from their catalog in what promises to be an unforgettable evening of music.

An album that was fifteen years in the making, Dream Theater released their sixteenth studio album, Parasomnia on February 7, 2025, via their longtime label home, Inside Out Music/Sony Music. From the opening track "In The Arms Of Morpheus" to the closer of "The Shadow Man Incident," Dream Theater returned with a collection of songs that showcased what has earned the band a loyal following for four decades.

Clocking in at 71 minutes, Parasomnia debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Hard Rock Albums, the Hard Music Albums and Current Rock Albums chart selling over 18,000 combined units the first week. It also debuted at #41 on the Billboard 200 which is notable for a progressive metal band and shows the bands devout fanbase. Parasomnia is a term for disruptive, sleep-related disturbances including sleepwalking, sleep paralysis, and night terrors. The album was produced by Petrucci, engineered by James 'Jimmy T' Meslin, and mixed by Andy Sneap. Hugh Syme returns once again to lend his creative vision to the cover art.
