From their MySpace page:

Although IMPERIA is currently in the middle of the songwriting process for the new album, the band has agreed to perform an exlusive show at the 2008 edition of the MYSTIC FAIR.

The gothic & fantasy fair will be held at the Ahoy (outdoor) in Rotterdam,
The Netherlands.

IMPERIA will be headlining the festival on Saturday, the 19th of July.

Hope to see you all down there!

There are rumors on several forums (esp. the After Forever one) that Imperia is not only playing the 19th but the 20th as well.

As stated by Stijn, a member of Morning (who are also performing), at the AF forum:
Imperia speelt beide dagen...
Hier onder het programma ongeveer in volgorde (van 10u tot 22u op zaterdag en van 12u tot 19u op zondag)

Zaterdag:
A New Dawn, TheName, Vanadis, Reincarnatus, Roadkill, Prey,
Morning, Musica Bombastica, The Dreamside, Imperia

Zondag:
Omnia, Deadcell , The Dreamside, Imperia, Saltatio Mortis

And more addition to the rumor: www.gothtronic.com/forum/?s=view&start=0&nav=0&topic=3929

According to the rumors, they will play at 9pm on Saturday and at 5pm on Sunday. both shows will last an hour.

I already contacted the band to confirm this; I'll post the reply here as soon as I got it. If they do play both days, I will probably be able to go on Sunday.



Btw, tickets for the Fair are now for sale at Ticketmaster.nl.

Update (based on a message by Jan):

Apparently, the original idea was for Imperia to play both days. They cancelled the second day because of logistics problems (5 people from different countries, etc...), but now it is possible for them to play on day 2. Still unsure, though, because the MF organization may have filled the spot on day 2 with another band.

Mark and I will attend the gig on Saturday.

I will bring my digital camera and shoot some videos (unlees there's annoying security).
