Mika concert chronology

In February 2010 Mika launched another tour, the Imaginarium Tour which started in Belfast, Northern Ireland and took him throughout Europe and back to Asia.

Background

Mika announced the official name of his tour on 4 October 2009 while in rehearsals for the North American leg. The tour would had an outer space theme.[2]

The idea behind this tour was that a civilian went into space where something went wrong, so he became lost. When the show started, attendees learned that the civilian-turned-astronaut lost in space was Mika.

Ian McKellen acted as the narrator shown on film at the beginning of the show.
