Fort Worth, Texas – Prepare for an auditory journey through cinematic history as “The World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension” tour announces its arrival at Dickies Arena on Monday, September 29, 2025. This highly anticipated production, personally curated and produced by the legendary composer Hans Zimmer himself, promises an unforgettable evening of music and visuals, bringing some of the most iconic film scores of all time to the live stage.
The Vision of a Maestro
Hans Zimmer, a two-time Academy Award winner and a titan in the field of film music, has redefined the soundscape of modern cinema for decades. His distinctive style, which masterfully blends electronic elements with traditional orchestral arrangements, has created unforgettable scores for blockbusters ranging from “The Lion King” and “Gladiator” to “Inception,” “The Dark Knight” trilogy, and the “Dune” saga. Zimmer’s compositions are more than just background scores; they are integral components of the storytelling, capable of evoking profound emotion, building intense suspense, and elevating cinematic moments into timeless classics. The “World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension” tour is the only official concert experience of its kind, offering audiences a unique opportunity to witness the power of his music performed live.
A Symphony of Sight and Sound: “A New Dimension”
While Hans Zimmer himself will not be performing live on stage, he serves as the show’s curator, producer, and musical director, ensuring his artistic vision guides every aspect of the production. The “A New Dimension” tour features a brand-new arrangement of Zimmer’s beloved catalog, performed by a masterful symphony orchestra comprising virtuoso soloists and acclaimed ensembles such as the Odessa Orchestra & Friends and the Nairobi Chamber Chorus. Leading this impressive ensemble will be multiple Grammy-nominated conductor Matt Dunkley, a long-standing professional partner of Zimmer’s. Dunkley, an orchestrator and arranger with over 200 film credits to his name, has collaborated with Zimmer on numerous blockbuster films, including “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Inception,” “The Dark Knight,” and “Top Gun: Maverick”. The live performances are precisely synchronized with breathtaking film sequences, creating an immersive, multi-sensory experience that blurs the line between film and symphony. This meticulous synchronization transforms concert halls into cinematic worlds, allowing attendees to relive iconic movie moments through the power of live music.
Global Success Arrives in Texas
The “World of Hans Zimmer – A New Dimension” tour has already achieved remarkable success, following a sold-out European run in 2024 and having sold over 1.2 million tickets worldwide since its inception in 2018. The tour made its North American debut in September 2025, visiting arenas across the continent. This extensive North American leg includes a pivotal stop in Fort Worth, Texas, at the state-of-the-art Dickies Arena, marking a significant addition to the city’s roster of major music events.

The arrival of such a globally recognized musical event in Texas highlights the region’s growing importance as a hub for major music and entertainment events.
The Ascendance of Live Film Music Events
The trend of performing film scores live with orchestras has seen a significant surge in popularity, attracting new and younger audiences to classical music events. These “movies in concert” or “film concerts” are increasingly becoming major music festivals and highly sought-after events, with many performances selling out. The appeal lies in the enhanced immersion and emotional depth that a live orchestral performance brings, often surpassing the experience of listening to a recorded soundtrack. For many, these concerts represent not only a chance to hear beloved film music but also their first exposure to a live symphony orchestra, fostering a broader appreciation for orchestral music. The “World of Hans Zimmer” tour is a prime example of this phenomenon, demonstrating how contemporary film music can captivate large audiences and establish itself as a significant cultural force within the broader landscape of music releases and events.
