Pink Floyd are celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of one of their most celebrated records. On December 12, 2025, Sony Music will release a special edition of Wish You Were Here that takes fans deeper into the music and the moment that defined the album. The collection features six songs that have never been released before, along with rarities and restored live recordings that shine a new light on the band’s eighth studio album.

The anniversary set will be available as three LPs, two CDs, on Blu ray, as a digital release and in a deluxe box. The digital version includes a fresh Dolby Atmos mix created by James Guthrie, who has worked with the group for decades. It also offers 25 bonus tracks, including nine rare studio cuts and 16 live recordings from the Los Angeles Sports Arena in 1975, taped by the noted collector Mike Millard and now officially released for the first time. The concert audio has been restored and remastered by Steven Wilson.

To mark the announcement, an early demo of Welcome to the Machine has been shared. Titled The Machine Song, it gives listeners a first glimpse into the creative process behind the classic track. Other rarities include a full version of Shine On You Crazy Diamond that runs through all nine parts and a stripped down mix of Wish You Were Here that highlights David Gilmour’s pedal steel guitar. Fifty years later, Wish You Were Here remains as powerful as the day it was released, and this edition invites fans to experience it all over again.
