City of Miami Beach declares January 15th New Order Day


New Order return to Miami Beach next week for their Four at the Fillmore residency and the City of Miami Beach couldn't be more excited. The City of Miami Beach declared January 15th to be New Order Day and as part of the festivities the city's Commissioner Michael Góngora will present the legendary band the key to Miami Beach. This high honor was previously bestowed upon New Order almost a year to the day -- New Order were honored with the key to Miami Beach prior to performing a sold out show at the Fillmore on January 12th, 2019 (see pictures below).

New Order's Four at the Fillmore residency kicks off next Tuesday, January 14th with a show titled ∑(No,5m,20Mia) which is inspired by their critically acclaimed Manchester International Festival shows. Though New Order won't be bringing a synthesizer orchestra or the art installations along, the evening of January 14th will feature a special performance of songs and arrangements taken from the acclaimed MIF gigs.

Meanwhile, New Order: Decades, the documentary chronicling the creation of New Order's Manchester International Festival gigs premiered on Showtime last month and is now available to view on demand.
