Background

The tour was announced in April 2012 with a date in Paris announced followed by a German tour all of which will take place in November of that year. A show in New York was announced in June,[2] followed by more shows in France. A twenty-one date North American tour was announced for September 2012 and would begin in New York City and end in Santa Ana on October 28.[3] A short intimate tour of the UK and Ireland was announced to showcase the band's new album with the shows taking place in Birmingham, Manchester, London and Dublin in early September thus kicking off the Beacon World Tour.[4] Three festival shows were also announced for Australia, which took place at the end of December and early January 2013.[5] A full UK tour took place in January and February 2013 with dates across the whole of the United Kingdom,[6] the band would also perform their biggest Irish headline show ever in January when they will perform at Dublin's O2.[7] This was set to be Two Door Cinema Club's biggest tour to date. They also performed their biggest show to date at Amsterdam's Heineken Music Hall in March 2013.

gollark: Some people say they're a Prometheus Labs product, others say they're some weird SCP where their inventor was wiped out by a temporal change but the SRAs kept existing, some say they were invented in the 1800s, some in the 1900s or early 2000s, and some say they run on enslaved reality benders.
gollark: Also, I'm not sure we should trust them when nobody even knows exactly when or where they were made?
