Avatar: The Last Airbender composer Jeremy Zuckerman worked with series co-creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko and original editor Jeff Adams on the compositions for the concert.

“It’s been incredibly satisfying and moving to see the audiences’ emotional response to these concerts, and to be a part of that atmosphere is a uniquely beautiful experience,” said Zuckerman in a release. “I’m overjoyed that many more people — Avatar fans both new and old — will get to experience the show during this wider tour.”

Avatar: The Last Airbender debuted on Nickelodeon in 2005 and introduced fans to Sokka, Aang, Zuko, Katara, and many more popular characters.

The popular franchise has grown to include video games, books, comics, a Hollywood live-action adaptation, and a Netflix series filmed in BC.

Attendees at the Auditorium will hear an orchestra perform the series’ memorable music score while a curated two-hour compilation of iconic moments is displayed on the full-size cinema screen.
