The format details for the previously advised The Police Around The World documentary reissue can now be confirmed. The film, previously only available on VHS and Laserdisc, follows the band on their first world tour in 1979 & 1980 offers a jovial glimpse of the band as they travel around the world and spotlights their visits to local sights between performances.

The reissue presents Around The World with restored picture and remastered audio and is available on three physical formats. The Blu-ray+CD edition offers the best picture quality (full HD) and the documentary offers complete performances of four songs as bonus features. There is also a DVD+CD edition with the same content for those that don’t want the visuals to look quite a good. Audio on the video formats is confirmed as stereo, 5.1 surround and DTS.

The blu-ray+CD combo of Around The World is likely to prove the most popular format.

There is a vinyl version which is actually paired with the DVD, rather than the blu-ray, and is this DVD+LP set with the vinyl record pressed on silver vinyl for North American, and blue for the rest of the world.

The audio on the CD and vinyl are live tracks recorded in Japan, Hong Kong & England during this world tour. There are nine on the vinyl record and 12 on the CD.

These three physical formats of Around The World will be released on 20 May 2022.
