Rammstein: Paris is the fourth concert film and third live album by German Neue Deutsche Härte band Rammstein. It was released on 19 May 2017. For the film, the concerts on 6 and 7 March 2012 were filmed entirely. The scenes were cut with scenes recorded during rehearsals for the tour. Every show was filmed with 30 cameras in front of 17,000 people each night in Paris. The film was to be shown on 24, 26 and 30 November 2016, but the information leaked and several cinemas put up adverts too early, thus the release was postponed to 23, 24 and 29 March 2017.[citation needed]

Before its theatrical release the film was shown three times: at the Cannes Film Festival (11 May 2016), CinemaxX cinema Cologne (11 August 2016) and at the Avant Première Film Festival Berlin (14 February 2017). On its first day of release, the film made more money in the cinemas than Beauty and the Beast on its first day.[citation needed] The movie had its official world premiere on 16 March 2017 at the Volksbühne in Berlin. All members of the band were present, as well as Jonas Åkerlund.[1]
