Tomorrowlands

Tomorrowland is an annual electronic dance music festival that takes place in Boom, Belgium. The event was first held in 2005 and has grown to become one of the largest and most widely recognized festivals of its kind worldwide. Organised by Q‑dance, the festival typically runs over a weekend in late July or early August and attracts up to 400,000 attendees from more than 100 countries. The event is divided into multiple themed stages, each featuring a distinct musical style such as deep house, techno, trance and drum & bass, as well as a main stage that hosts the festival’s headline acts.

The festival’s production is known for its elaborate stage designs, theatrical lighting, and immersive visual presentations. A common aesthetic theme is storytelling inspired by fantasy, mythology and futuristic concepts, reflected in stage names like "Temple of Geometry" and "The Extreme Stadium." Each year, Tomorrowland’s lineup includes nationally and internationally renowned DJs and producers such as Armin van Buuren, Martin Garrix, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and Charlotte de Witte.

In addition to the main event, Tomorrowland has expanded into a brand offering a variety of related events and content. These extensions include Tomorrowland Brasil, a week-long festival held in São Paulo; Tomorrowland Winter, a spin‑off in the Swiss Alps; and the Tomorrowland Live series, festival‑style concerts hosted in cities around the globe. The festival also launched an online streaming platform, Tomorrowland One to enable global viewership during the main event.

Tomorrowland has been cited in the Guinness World Records for being the most‑attended EDM festival. Its influence extends beyond music, shaping fashion, visual arts, and global festival culture. The event continues to evolve, adding new stages, environmental initiatives and collaborations with artists across various media.
