Secret World Live is a film filmed in two Peter Gabriel concerts in 1993, as part of his Secret World Tour to support his sixth solo album, Us. The show is performed across two stages: a square and a circular stage, bridged by a conveyor belt. It was released on VHS, LaserDisc and DVD. An album of the same title with a similar track listing was also released.

The film received the 1996 Grammy Award for Best Long Form Music Video, honouring video director Francois Girard and video producer Robert Warr.[1][2]

The film has been remastered and became available on DVD and Blu-ray on 2 July 2012 in the UK[3] and 24 July 2012 in North America.[4] The new release also contains the song "Red Rain" that was not present on the original releases.
