At the end of July, you can relive David Bowie's iconic concert from 1973 in a whole new and immersive way. An improved version of his concert film will be screened in four cinemas in Budapest, making it a treat for both longtime admirers of David Bowie and new fans. This insightful article by WeLoveBudapest.com shares key details including where you can catch the film.

The final concert of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust persona was adapted into a film and released in 1979. Now, 50 years after the iconic show in 1973, a retouched version of the film premiered. And it is coming to cinemas for a short time. So here is your opportunity to celebrate Bowie's legacy!
 

The film also features Jeff Beck's performance, which was previously cut. The new and extended version offers an extra 13 minutes of footage to enhance the concert experience.
 

Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Lou Reed all hit the stage, and Ringo Starr also makes an appearance. Besides the theme song, expect to hear big classics such as Moonage Daydream, Time, Changes, or Space Oddity. 

You can catch the film in four cinemas in town on 27-28 July: Pólus Mozi, Lurdy Mozi, Cinema MOM, and a GoBuda Mozi. Get tickets in advance on the Hungarian websites or on the spot.
