There’ve been so many Batman movies over the last several decades, but Tim Burton’s titular 1989 film holds a special place in the history of superhero films. It was the first Batman movie—or well, one of them—seen by many a generation, and its impact can be felt across future live-action takes on the character, Batman: The Animated Series, and even the video games to some extent.

Batman will be turning 35 years old in 2024, and Warner Bros. is marking the occasion with a live concert tour starting up in January. In the same vein of recent concert showings for films like Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, a live orchestra will play Danny Elfman’s compositions for the film as it’s projected on screen. Per the press release, the concert will begin with the Los Angeles Dolby Theater on January 13, 2024, before traveling to cities such as Atlanta, GA, Washington, DC, and Tampa, FL. Towards the end of May, it’ll wrap up its run by going international and playing in Paris and London.
