Tomorrowland is one of the world’s largest and most iconic electronic music festivals, held annually in Boom, Belgium. Since its inception in the mid-2000s, it has evolved from a modest one-day event into a multi-weekend extravaganza that draws hundreds of thousands of “People of Tomorrow” from around the globe. Each summer, the festival transforms the De Schorre park into a magical wonderland where music and fantasy converge amid elaborate stages and massive crowds.

Each edition of Tomorrowland is built around an immersive theme that influences everything from the décor to the Mainstage design. Over the years, the festival grounds have been turned into fairy-tale forests, enchanted kingdoms, and underwater worlds. Iconic Mainstage sets - from the giant open book of the “Book of Wisdom” to the carnival-style wonders of “Amicorum Spectaculum” - have set new benchmarks for festival production. Enormous moving stages, pyrotechnics, and synchronized light shows create a multi-sensory experience.

Tomorrowland boasts an unparalleled lineup of electronic music talent across all subgenres. Its stages have been headlined by superstar DJs like

Beyond the music, the atmosphere fosters a sense of global unity - attendees wave flags from every corner of the world, and Tomorrowland’s motto “Live Today, Love Tomorrow, Unite Forever” is reflected in the crowd’s camaraderie. This celebration of diversity and togetherness has become central to Tomorrowland’s identity, turning the event into a cultural melting pot.

Through its aftermovies and live broadcasts, Tomorrowland has helped push electronic dance music into the mainstream.
