We want thank everyone for your great vibe, enthusiasm and patience!We were received at the airport, performed our first sold out show in Mexico, found an illegal merchandise mug, reached great heights in Quito, had fun in the lovely Peru, enjoyed the great weather, were confronted by Murphy’s law, got kissed by a frog, lost some baggage at the airport but fortunately found it again, and were drawn into some kind of pre-carnaval in Rio!Everyone who came to see us, you were awesome! Thanks!

PRESS RELEASE:Sharon den Adel completed a South-American tour with her band Within Temptation this week, visiting 7 countries and performing sold out shows in Mexico, Sí£o Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Meanwhile, partner Robert Westerholt chose the Scottish Highlands as díécor for the upcoming theater tour.Together with a set team, Westerholt is working on the creation and production of the new theater show of Within Temptation, which will be kicked off in March this year. The band chose the highlands as main line in the díécor of the theater show. “The great unknown beauty and mystic of the Highlands go hand in hand with the lesser known softer and folkloristic songs of Within Temptation,†says Westerholt.The visual aspects of the show are playing a larger role in the Within Temptation show. The visuals shot in the highlands will be projected on the largest LED-screen that has ever been used in the Dutch theaters and will be combined with life-like 3D projections.
We will be playing "The Promise" during our Dutch Theater Tour. No doubt about it, this is a show you can't miss.
