Swedish rock band Ghost has announced that their upcoming 2025 world tour will enforce a “phone-free” policy at all shows, creating an immersive experience for fans without digital distractions. In collaboration with Yondr, a company that provides phone-locking pouches, attendees will be required to secure their phones upon entry. The decision aims to ensure that fans stay fully engaged with the live performance, reducing the tendency to record or use devices during the show.
What to Expect from the Phone-Free Experience:
- Locked Devices: Concertgoers will receive Yondr pouches to lock their phones, keeping devices secure but inaccessible during the show. Phones will be unlocked upon exiting designated areas or at the end of the concert.
- Enhanced Live Atmosphere: Ghost’s approach intends to foster deeper connection between fans and the performance, letting fans immerse themselves without the interruption of screens.
- Fan Reactions: Reactions on social media have been mixed. Some fans praised the policy for promoting presence in the moment, while others expressed concerns about accessibility and missing the chance to capture memories.
Ghost’s 2025 World Tour Details:
The tour will include stops in major cities across North America, Europe, and Australia. Known for their theatrical shows, Ghost promises fans a unique, uninterrupted concert experience. Tickets are on sale now, with the phone-free policy applied at all locations.
