What do you do for an encore when your first-ever feature film becomes the number one Hard Rock Cinema Event in US History and spawns a number one charting soundtrack album? If you are Ghost, you go even bigger because you literally go 2 BIG TO RIG. The band’s second collaboration with Trafalgar Releasing, 2 BIG TO RIG was captured live on 16mm film over the course of Ghost’s two sold-out shows at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes. The band’s second feature film, it transports the viewer through time and space to a spot in the crowd of nearly 40,000 who witnessed those darkly magical nights in September 2025.
In contrast to 2024’s global box office top 10 smash RITE HERE RITE NOW, 2 BIG TO RIG focuses exclusively on the Ghost live ritual. From behind-the-scenes interludes showcasing the crew members that make the band’s theatrical vision into nightly reality to the only pro-shot footage of mesmerizing frontman Papa V Perpetua and his band of Nameless Ghouls on the entire phone-free tour, 2 BIG TO RIG is the definitive document of Ghost’s unforgettable SKELETOUR WORLD TOUR.
“Ghost captured the final nights of the legendary Skeletour’s first leg on 16mm film in Mexico City—creating a nostalgic experience and a fitting farewell to an era for fans. We’re proud to share it with cinema audiences worldwide before GHOST takes a well-publicized break. It’s the perfect way to close such a significant chapter in the band’s history and give fans a chance to relive this moment together,” said Kymberli Frueh, EVP Content Acquisitions & Programming, Trafalgar Releasing.
2 BIG TO RIG will be released in cinemas and IMAX® worldwide beginning on August 26, for a limited time only. Tickets will officially be on sale Thursday, July 23. For updates on screenings, showtimes and to sign up for further information, go to here.
