A documentary based on Avantasia's Around the World in Twenty Days world tour, Avantasia's first world tour. Released in conjunction with the Avantasia: The Flying Opera live recording.

The Flying Opera is the first Avantasia live album by German power metal vocalist Tobias Sammet, released in March 2011. It was recorded during their first world tour in 2008, in support of the album The Scarecrow.

Live DVD released in 2003 by the metal band Shaman.

The Scarecrow is a concept album about the tragic story of a lonesome creature, emotionally isolated from his environment and suffering from a distorted sensory perception. His feelings for the love of his life unrequited, he sets off on a journey exploring his left-hand path, striving for inner peace, ploughing his way to approval and eventually facing temptation at the inner depths of the human soul. The story continues on the albums The Wicked Symphony and Angel of Babylon.

This year Tobias Sammet's Avantasia will once again bring us an amazing all-star show with many famous musicians. Furthermore we can proudly say that it's the 12th time that Tobias Sammet visits Wacken and it's the fourth time he does it with Avantasia. Today we can also let the cat out of the bag and announce the bands awesome line-up for Wacken 2017!
