Viva Las Vengeance marks the first new music from Panic! At The Disco since the 2018 release of their #1 album, RIAA certified platinum-selling Pray For The Wicked, highlighted by the 5x-platinum smash hit “High Hopes” which simultaneously hit #1 across three different radio formats and broke the Billboard record for most weeks atop the Hot Rock Songs Chart!

The hit song was nominated for Top Rock Song at the Billboard Music Awards as well as Favorite Pop Rock Song at the AMAs. The album also featured platinum smashes “Hey Look Ma, I Made It,” and “Say Amen (Saturday Night)”. The band’s 2019 sold-out Pray for the Wicked arena world tour sold over 1 million tickets and received critical praise including, “[Urie’s] got the charisma, musical talent and stamina to be one of music’s longest-lasting leading men,” (Variety), “Brendon Urie embodies on-stage theatrics like few other frontmen,” (SF Weekly), and “From dancing fire to a flying piano, Panic! At The Disco puts on a wild show” (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel).

Formed in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2004 Panic! At The Disco are a multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated rock band. They released their #1 album “Pray For The Wicked” in 2019 off the heels of their critically acclaimed fifth album, “Death Of A Bachelor.” “DOAB” debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 Chart and was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2017 GRAMMY® Awards.

The RIAA platinum selling release was the highest selling rock album and fourth-highest selling album released in 2016, according to Nielsen Soundscan. “DOAB” has also spawned RIAA certified gold singles “Hallelujah,” “LA Devotee,” Don’t Threaten Me With A Good Time,” and platinum singles “Death Of A Bachelor,” “Emperor’s New Clothes,” and “Victorious.” The band’s song “House of Memories” off of DOAB is currently having a TikTok moment with over 2.1 billion views.

Panic! At The Disco have been nominated for multiple awards, including the GRAMMYS, Teen Choice Awards, Billboard Music Awards, Alternative Press Music Awards, Kerrang! Awards, VMAs and more. In 2017 Urie made his Broadway debut, first starring as Charlie Price in the critically acclaimed, TONY Award-winning, Broadway hit Kinky Boots. In 2018, he received a TONY Award nomination for “Best Original Score Written For Theatre” for the song he wrote called “Simple Sponge” for SpongeBob SquarePants: The Broadway Musical. Outside of music, Urie founded the Highest Hopes Foundation – an umbrella fund which supports the efforts of non-profit organizations that lead, develop, and advocate support for human rights for all people and communities subject to discrimination or abuse on the basis of gender, race, religion, sexual orientation and gender identity.
Absolutely amazing! I went a few years back and I’m going again, tt was amazing the first time so I expect no less from them!

Awesome experience! I went with my daughter, and we had a great time! I can honestly say he's got one the best male voices I've ever heard. The performance was awesome, he even floated over the stage on a flying piano bench and played piano and sang from up there.

I've wanted to see Panic! in concert for over 12 years now and I was not at all disappointed! Brendon really feeds off of the energy in the crowd, and you can tell that he truly loves what he does. I'm so glad I finally made it to a concert after all these years. If you get a chance to see them, take it! You won't regret it! Also the fact that they allow people to bring in professional cameras is amazing. They want you to enjoy the experience to the fullest and I truly did.

Best show ever, I went to my first Panic concert in 2018 at TD Garden. It was the best experience of my whole life. I cried for days and days after the concert. This is my all time favorite band and highly recommend seeing them! So if your thinking of buying them. But them!

One of the best performers ever! I saw Panic! At The Disco in 2019 for the Pray for The Wicked tour. I took my son, it was his first concert. This had to be in my top three concerts ever. His stage presence is just wonderful and his voice is just so much better live to me! My whole family is Panic fans and we are all excited for him to come back to Indy for us to all go! My other two children will now be seeing him and my husband going to! So excited!
