This tour will see Tiësto return to his club roots, allowing his fans to see him up close and personal in a more intimate setting, following his record breaking “Elements Of Life” world tour last year. With Armani Exchange, Mr. Armani interprets his sensual and unique style to create a collection for the generation of the young, urban and sexy. "A collaboration between A|X and Tiesto was a natural partnership for the brand,” says Patrick Doddy Vice President Brand Image Armani Exchange. “A|X and Tiesto are both aimed at capturing the spirit of a new generation that appreciate after-dark style. The A|X collection takes its cue from allelements of metropolitan lifestyle and dance music culture. A|X believes that perfect style, like perfect music, can bring the night endless possibilities. Having over two decades in the electronic music world and recognized as “World¹s No. 1 DJ,” Tiësto’s accomplishments go far beyond the dance music community. In 2007 Tiësto’s Elements of Life album was nominated for a Grammy Award for "Best Electronic/Dance Album.”

Tiësto’s remix of “Delirium” featuring Sarah McLachlan’s “Silence” was the first house track ever broadcast on daytime radio in North America. This track went on to become an international dance floor anthem and spent eight weeks in the UK Top 10 Chart.
