Arcade Fire say dress code is “required” for arena tour, perform live on German TV

If you thought that Arcade Fire’s encouraged fancy dress during their recent run of intimate shows was a temporary bit of fun then think again, as the band have confirmed they’ll be keeping up the festivities on their upcoming arena tour.

Booking website Ticketmaster note that fans are asked to “wear formal attire or costume” to the shows on the tour, which kicks off during March in North America.

The Canadian band also performed “Afterlife” on German TV last night. Watch that below.

Arcade Fire’s new album, Reflektor is out now.
