It has been announced that the final performance of "The Big Finish Farewell Tour" by American rock band MR.BIG, which was held at Nippon Budokan (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo) last year as their last world tour, will be screened at 109 Cinemas Premium Shinjuku (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo) for two weeks only from November 8th.

MR.BIG debuted in 1989. Their activities stagnated after the death of drummer Pat Torpey in 2018, but in July last year they toured Japan for the first time since 2017. It was supposed to be MR.BIG's last tour of Japan, but it was later announced that their encore Japan performance "The BIG Finale! Forever In Our Hearts" would be held at Osaka-jo Hall (Chuo-ku, Osaka) on February 22, 2025, and at Nippon Budokan on the 25th of the same month.

109 Cinemas Premium Shinjuku, where the performance from last year's Nippon Budokan concert will be screened, is known for being one of the best theaters in Japan for its excellent acoustic experience, and is also known for having had the sound system overseen by the late Ryuichi Sakamoto. The theater is equipped with the SAION-SR EDITION sound system, which pursues the ultimate in realistic sound.

The Big Finish Live will be shown from November 8th to 21st. Tickets are 6,500 yen for CLASS S (6,000 yen for Cinema Point members) and 4,500 yen for CLASS A (4,000 yen for Cinema Point members). A welcome concession (soft drink and popcorn) is included in the ticket price. The screening time is 147 minutes.

A Blu-ray disc containing the performance from the Nippon Budokan concert will be released on November 22nd.
