Ziggy Stardust – The Global Premiere (12A)

12A

July 3, 1973 – David Bowie retired Ziggy Stardust, his most celebrated alter-ego, in front of 5000 disbelieving fans onstage at London’s Hammersmith Odeon. 50 years to that day, Ziggy will return to that same stage for one night only…

July 3, 2023 – The Eventim Apollo Hammersmith (formerly the Odeon) will host the global premiere of the newly restored version of ‘Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars: The Motion Picture’ with the film also being shown in 1000+ cinemas worldwide.

The Eventim Apollo Hammersmith will host a red-carpet premiere, including an exclusive on-stage conversation with Bowie collaborators and contemporary musicians that will precede the film screening.

It is one of the most iconic performances in the history of modern music: the moment where David Bowie retired his Ziggy Stardust alter ego in front of an audience of 5000 fans at London’s Hammersmith Odeon.

The new version of the film features:
•     The full uncut performance featuring final scenes with the legendary guitar player Jeff Beck – including his high-octane performance on Bowie’s anthemic 1972 hit, The Jean Genie
•     A fully restored, 4K visual mix overseen by DA Pennebaker’s son, Frazer
•     A 5.1 mix undertaken by producer Tony Visconti
•     An extended running time of 102 mins

A film that focuses on the adoration of Bowie fans and which captures David onstage and in his dressing room prior to the show, Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars: The Motion Picture – The Complete Performance is the closest audiences will come to being there on that fateful night 50 years ago.
