The year of Sonic celebration continues with more presents and cameos and remasters for the blue blur. If your idea of a swell 30th celebration is more lawn concert thanOlympics tie-in, hey there’s one of those too. For his official birthday today, Sega have pulled together a big virtual 30th anniversary orchestral concert chock full of Sonic tunes with some other special musical guest appearances too. You can watch it live here below when it kicks off at 8pm BST.

Update:The concert is over now but you can still watch the whole thing down below.

I imagine the hedgehog heads out there have favorites they’re hoping to hear while tuning into the concert. Favorite tunes from Crush 40 and Tomoya Ohtani, perhaps? Or maybe just a nice orchestral rendition of Green Hills Zone, eh? My own favorite Sonic bop is still Escape From The City fromSonic Adventure 2. Not sure that’ll make it into the rotation, but hey, I’ll be listening to find out.

If you’d not kept up with all of this year’s Sonic reveals and game tie-ins and all, here’s a few for you. During their Sonic Central from May, Segaannounced the remasterSonic Colors: Ultimatecoming in September. They also teased a new, unnamed Sonic game game coming in 2022. Yup, on PC too. Oh, and Sonic has justsprinted into Minecraft too. Why not?

Happy 30th, blue boy. Get out there and run like it’s 1991.

In case you missed it, here’s that Sonic Central event with a bunch of other hedgehog reveals to celebrate the anniversary.
