In Photos: the last gig of Tarja and Marko’s ”Living The Dream – Together Tour” at Z7, Pratteln, Switzerland

On the 25th of September, the ”Living The Deam – Together Tour 2024” ended at the legendary Swiss venue – Z7 in Pratteln. It’s the venue where Tarja Turunen and Marko Hietala officially came together for the first time since leaving Nightwish. In 2023 they performed together at the Summer Nights Open Air in the same venue and since then the fans demanded they go on a full tour together. And they both listened! The show started one hour later than planned due to problems with customs. It didn’t affect the energy and atmosphere of the show in the slightest and the excitement to see both artists perform was over the roof. Marko joked around with the audience and was as entertaining as ever. When Tarja took the stage she was in full control of the crowd with her charisma and powerful voice. Both musicians joined on stage for a few songs at the end of Tarja’s set. Planet Hell and Wish I Had An Angel were met with the loudest of cheers. ChaosZine were lucky enough to witness the magic firsthand. Check out the photos from the triumphant ending of Tarja and Marko’s tour!
