(16th January 2025) Sony Music Vision announce the release of Pink Floyd at Pompeii – MCMLIXXII on 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray, available from 27th February here. The newly restored version of the band’s iconic 1972 concert film is presented in 4K, upgraded from the original 35mm footage with newly remixed Dolby Atmos, stereo and 5.1 audio. Following its praised return to cinemas in 2025, one of Pink Floyd’s most beloved works now becomes available in an ultimate home-viewing edition, presenting the iconic performance in its most immersive form to date.

Pink Floyd At Pompeii pre-dates the release of The Dark Side Of The Moon. The film documents what Pink Floyd did before they became giants of the album charts on both sides of the Atlantic – where their music remains celebrated to this day. Set in the hauntingly beautiful ruins of the ancient Roman Amphitheatre in Pompeii, Italy, this unique and immersive film captures Pink Floyd performing an intimate concert without an audience. Filmed in October 1971, the performance marked the very first live concert to take place at Pompeii, and features the vital ‘Echoes,’ ‘A Saucerful of Secrets,’ and ‘One of These Days.’ The breathtaking visuals of the amphitheatre, captured both day and night, amplify the magic of the performance. Additionally, the film includes rare behind-the-scenes footage of the band beginning work on The Dark Side of the Moon at Abbey Road Studios.

The worldwide theatrical release in Spring 2025 received widespread acclaim, described as a “mesmerically peculiar portrait of a band on cusp of greatness” by The Guardian, “required viewing for every aspiring young musician” by The Telegraph, “magnificent” by the Financial Times and “iconic” by the NME.

 The accompanying, and first-ever, album soundtrack release Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii via Legacy Recordings debuted at #1 on the Official UK Albums Chart, topped charts internationally, and was heralded as “a five-star, captivating new mix” by The Times.

The 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray release presents Pink Floyd at Pompeii – MCMLXXII in its most premium form to date. Led by Lana Topham, Director of Restoration for Pink Floyd, the team’s mission was to preserve the integrity and beauty of the original picture. The film was scanned in 4K using advanced techniques to ensure the finest, sharpest detail. Colors were enhanced, and every frame was meticulously reviewed and repaired by hand, maintaining a natural and vivid appearance with minimal grain adjustments.

The film also features stunning sound quality with a new home entertainment mix by Steven Wilson in Dolby Atmos, stereo and 5.1, enhancing the film’s depth and clarity whilst preserving the authenticity and spirit of the original 1972 release. Wilson’s aim was to remain faithful to how the band would have sounded in 1971.
