Let your dreams of dancing amidst pristine nature come alive at Sonus Festival, a five-day-five-night open air celebration of electronic music along the immaculate Croatian waterfront. This dream takes place on Zcre Beach on Pag Island situated in the crystal clear Adriatic Sea, a surreal landscape boasting mystifying natural rock formations along a stretch of secluded beaches. The five-day festival features more than 60 artists across techno and house, from international mainstays and local legends to up-and-coming stars and underground dignitaries.

Enjoy a relaxing morning at the beach before the Sonus day parties kick off at 4 pm every day. Take another dip in the water before the night kicks off at 10 pm or dance through sundown and into sunrise as the night parties end at 6 am. 



In addition to its surreal landscape and extensive runtime, Sonus books the most exciting names in techno and house, establishing itself as a leading festival in the global electronic landscape. Meticulously hand-picking a pristine lineup for a decade now, past events have seen top names like FISHER, Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, Black Coffee, Tale of Us, and many more.

Celebrating its 10th edition, this year’s Sonus Festival takes place on August 20-24, 2023. Across four coastal clubs— Aquarius Club, Kalypso Zcre, NOA Beach Club, and Papaya Zrce— and various boat venues. Exciting names like Vintage Culture, The Martinez Brothers, Kölsch, Richie Hawtin, and Ben Böhmer will soundtrack the five-day coastal affair. Further, genre luminaries like 999999999, ARTBAT, Claptone, Loco Dice, Maceo Plex, Reinier Zonneveld, Sven Väth, and more will bring their ground-shaking sounds to Sonar 2023.

Go from beach to dance floor and back again, on repeat for five days and nights at Sonar Festival. Tickets for the 10th anniversary are on sale now.

Your favorite Aussie selecta and ours, Wax Motif, returns to New York for his biggest headline play yet on Friday, August 25, 2023. After his last sold-out show at the Musica during NY Fashion Week, we couldn’t wait to bring him back for another incredible performance at an iconic location - Knockdown Center. If you are a Gray Area Inner-Circle member, check your email for exclusive access to pre-sale tickets. If you aren’t an Inner-Circle Member, sign up now to lock your spot. 






Wax Motif's high energy, coupled with his silky genre-defying sound that flawlessly blends elements of the deep, bangin', and gangsta with some smooth notes of R&B and hip hop thrown in for good measure, is oh-so-fun to experience. Throughout his decade-long career, he's stood out as an innovator of cross-genre pollination and pioneer in bass-forward house music.




If you think you're unfamiliar with Wax Motif's sound, think again. Hits like his 2017 remix of Chris Lorenzo and AC Slater's "Fly Kicks" on Night Bass helped establish him a reliable and sought-after producer/remixer, while recent chart-toppers like "Bump, Bump, Bump" and "On The Low" with Longstoryshort prove his ability to find the confluence between nostalgia and modern day swag,




If you've caught performances from artists like Diplo, John Summit, and Oliver Heldens, chances are you've heard his music woven throughout their sets. And you can even count cultural icons like Diddy, featured on his thumping 2019 turn to tech house "Divided Souls," among his many supporters.




Wax Motif's been on a major tear in recent years. His most recent release, "Traga" ft STO Cultr marks his debut on Repopulate Mars, and this techy, Latin house track is already a fan favorite. And the rest of 2023 shows no signs of slowing with his upcoming collab with UK newcomer Riordan, "La Samba," dropping on Nervous Records on March 17.

While Wax Motif has some notable releases on labels like Interscope Records, Mad Decent, and Insomniac Records, he's also an industry tastemaker, a talent he expresses through his imprint Divided Souls Records, which he started in 2019. There he released his landmark debut album, House of Wax, fully encapsulating the imprint's ethos. Composed of 17 songs (many of which were older jams he didn't think fit with other labels) that genuinely showcase his ingenuity, range, and versatility, House of Wax produced many a banger, including "Skank N Flex" (with Scruzfizzer), which has 13.5 million streams on Spotify.


A true man of his community, he's famously eschewed the idea that he has "fans" at all, as he feels a close kinship with all those who listen to his music. So much, in fact, that he's composed his team of people he met through his social media and Discord channels.




Yes, Wax stands out when you consider his nearly two million monthly listeners on Spotify, his many sold-out shows, and his appearances at festivals like Ultra, ARC, CRSSD, Electric Zoo, HARD, EDC, and Holy Ship. Yet, beyond the indelible mark on house music, he impacts the community because of his massive personality and humble and encouraging spirit.



Don't miss your chance to be in the building for Wax Motif's biggest headlining show. We're proud to be part of his journey and hope you will join us to be a part of it too.

Celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2022, Eastern Electrics has solidified itself as one of the leading electronic music festivals in the UK. Thrown in London annually, the single day affair is rooted in underground warehouse culture, bringing to light many of the greatest talents that make up the local electronic landscape as well as showcasing some of the best international superstars. 

Over the past decade, Eastern Electrics has welcomed hundreds of thousands of ravers to its London-based events across warehouses, studios, parks, garages, lofts, and some of the city’s largest venues— most recently and notably, the Lee Valley Showground in North London for Eastern Electrics Festival.

Though just one day, Eastern Electrics packs around 30 artists into the ten hour festival. The talent is spread across five stages: Cuttin’ Headz. Pyramid, Appetite, and La Discotheque, each hosted by its respective brand, as well as the festival’s own stage, Big Top. Festival-goers can expect to hear a broad spectrum of sounds across house, techno, garage, and disco. Previous years saw performances from notable names like Green Velvet, Seth Troxler, Carl Cox, Skream, and Kölsch.

This year’s Eastern Electrics marks eleven years of the festival and the second year at Lee Valley. Taking place from noon until 10 pm on August 26, the 2023 edition welcomes familiar faces like The Martinez Brothers alongside festival newcomers like ARTBAT and Chris Stussy.

The Pyramid stage— coming all the way from Amnesia in Ibiza— will host techno hard hitters like Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Mella Dee, Elli Acula, Luca Donzelli, and Ogazón. The main stage, Big Top, will host performances from ARTBAT, Joris Voorn, Fideles, Miss Monique, and Airrica. The Cuttin’ Headz stage is headlined by The Martinez Brothers, with very special guests leading up to their performance, including Rossi., Mason Collective, DJ Minx, and Jean Pierre. The Appetite stage hosts UK talent including Denis Sulta, Tai Lokun, and Elliot Schooling b2b Liam Palmer, as well as Dutch DJ Chris Stussy, Berlin-based Lovefoxy, and European duo Laurie & Cecillo. La Discotheque will host high-energy sets by Move D, Crazy P, Barry Can’t Swim, Heléna Star b2b Louise Chen, and Jaye Ward.

As New York City’s largest electronic happening of not just the summer but of the whole year, Electric Zoo has been at the helm of the city’s dance music scene since 2009. The three-day electronic music festival takes over Randall’s Island annually on Labor Day Weekend, dressing the sprawling greenery up with five grand stages, vibrant decor, and interactive experiences, complete with invigorating sounds from the most exciting names in dance music. Situated in a unique waterfront location hovering between Harlem, the South Bronx, and Queens on the East River, Randall’s Island offers an escape from the city with endless room to dance, while still granting an astonishing view of the concrete jungle.

This year’s Electric Zoo returns to Randall’s Island Park from September 1-3 with an electrifying lineup and edge-of-the-seat programming of stage takeovers, b2b sets, and special performances. The three-day dance music affair brings dozens of industry-leading names and main stage mainstays to the Big Apple, alongside rising stars, underground legends, and local names across the expansive electronic spectrum. 



Celebrating its 14th year, the 2023 edition will see exciting headliners like Alison Wonderland, Green Velvet, Zedd, Excision, Kaskade, Kx5 (Kaskade and deadmau5), Liquid Stranger, Gryffin, Elderbrook, and Major Lazer. GRiZ is set to perform three times over the weekend, which will be some of his last, as he announced an indefinite hiatus from the GRiZ project.

The 2023 edition kicks it up to a new level with exciting new stage takeovers. John Summit and Dom Dolla will be debuting their world premiere of Everything Always, while house veterans Chris Lake and FISHER present Under Construction, and deep house favorite Nora En Pure presents Purified. And renowned event organizer Jake Resnicow takes over a stage with his Dreamland worldwide festival debut.



Gray Area is teaming up with fellow New York scene leader Cityfox to unveil a new event concept— Megafox: a festival within a festival. The all-new fifth stage will combine Cityfox's decade-long reputation for immersive events with Gray Area's eclectic curation for a singular sonic journey.

Furthermore, the New York City festival facilitates some of the most exciting collaborative sets of the season. This year’s back-to-back sets include Zeds Dead b2b Griz, Boogie T b2b Dirt Monkey, Hi Lo b2b Eli Brown, Nora en Pure b2b Franky Wah, Black Carl! b2b Saka, Volaris b2b Paige, and a b2b set from everyone's favorite dust-kicking miscreants, Desert Hearts founders Mikey Lion, Lee Reynolds, Marbs, and Porky.

The 2023 lineup features riveting names like Skream, ACRAZE, Cloonee, Sam Divine, Giolí & Assia, Massano, Matroda, Mau P, Nic Fanciulli, and Francis Mercier, proving that there will be no shortage of house and techno sounds. While up-and-comers and underground heroes like Coco & Breezy, Deeper Purpose, Juliet Fox, Canabliss, Mary Droppinz, Nostalgix, HoneyLuv, J. Worra, and many more pre-heat the dancefloor.

Get the best of both worlds with EZoo— escape to nature for the day, then head back into the city for intoxicating afterparties upon each festival day’s end.

Electric Zoo 2023: HYPERSPACE

Randalls Island

Chicago's ARC Music Festival has quickly gained a reputation for being the finest Stateside example of intelligent house and techno programming. Now entering its third year, the lineups and experience only get grander as the years pass. An indelible part of that experience is the bright and vibrant colors of elrow that capture the concrete dancefloor in the corner of Union Park. It's the only time all year that elrow touches down for a full multi-day festival celebration in the US. And, if we're being honest, it is one of ARC's most exciting additions.

This year elrow brings its Nowmads theme to Chicago. Dance the weekend away in the shadow of the mystical star gate, where you can travel to a parallel planet of the past, present, and future. It's a fluorescent time-traveling expedition to a universe of floating phoenixes, towering pyramids, Cromagnons, Bedouins, and feudal lords.



And, of course, no elrow would be complete without the explosions of colorful confetti by the hour and showers of inflatables falling over the masses throughout the day. So make sure to reach out and grab something to add something weird and wonderful to your look.



While the sites of elrow are a feast for the eyes, the sounds of elrow perfectly capture the spirit of America's premiere house and techno festival. The weekend is packed to the rafters with incredible music featuring the most current and forward-thinking artists.



On the docket, we've got five incredible back-to-back sets! Multi-dimensional DJ, producer, and singer Cassy pairs up with elrow resident and Spanish tech house titan Toni Varga. Varga is on double duty for the weekend, also dropping a set alongside Relief Records stalwart Eskuche. Award-winning Spanish artist Dennis Cruz joins Cocoon family artists and Deep Moves label head Ilario Alicante. And last but certainly not least, two dons of house music (and Chicago-born legends) Lee Foss and Gene Farris are dropping the heat together.



Also coming through for some confetti-blasted absurdly good times are hands-up house purveyor Dombresky, Cuttin' Headz signee Fleur Shore, turntable technician James Hype, Dirtybird resident Kevin Knapp, and the ever-inventive Kyle Walker.



Rules Don't Apply bosses Walker & Royce are bringing their wonderfully oddball take on house music to elrow Chicago. And rounding out the lineup are some international favorites: first lady of Defected Sam Divine, Brazillian mastermind Vintage Culture, and leader of the Spanish tech house movement Wade.



The elrow stage at ARC is always a massively fantastic spectacle of absurdity and accelerated fun. The festival itself offers so much to experience, so if you're planning on coming out to Chicago for Labor Day Weekend, you don't want to miss a minute.

elrow Chicago at ARC Music Festival

Union Park

Following its successful expansion to three days last year, ARC Music Festival–Chicago's premier house and techno festival–has firmly established itself as an industry leader in the global circuit, consistently attracting top-tier international talent. This year ARC returns to the home of house music at Union Park from September 1-3.



As expected, ARC Music Festival boasts an impressive roster of world-renowned house and techno artists. Among the slew of notable names are ARC favorites Eric Prydz, who will showcase his iconic and innovative HOLO show, and Adam Beyer, returning for a solo set after last year's monumental back-to-back performance with Prydz under his Cirez D alias. Other headliners include Afterlife duo Tale Of Us and Chicago-born John Summit, making his ARC Festival debut.



But Summit isn’t the only Chicagoan on the lineup. A pillar of the ARC ethos is the celebration of house music’s foundations. The fest always works to celebrate those who’ve helped to build house music culture. This year, modern heavyweights like Summit sit beside pioneers such as Derrick Carter, Gene Farris, Dj Lady D, and DJ Heather.

Looking at the 2023 festival circuit, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better dance music showcase than ARC Festival. From the lilting Afro house of South African Themba to the atmospheric progressive of Tinlicker, there’s something on this lineup for all dance fans. Nina Kraviz, Eli Brown, and Anifsa Letyago bring some hypnotic, driving techno. Hot Since 82, Walker & Royce, Mochakk, and Fleur Shore serve some tech house heat. Vintage Culture brings his imitable blend of pop-leaning deeper house sounds. Miss Monique has you covered for those progressive house vibes, and Boys Noize brings his industrial take on electro house



ARC Festival 2023 also features several rare killer B2B performances on the docket. Fisher b2b Loco Dice b2b Nic Fanciulli will be the tech house trio to end it all. Chloe Caillet and Carlita will go back to back with their kaleidoscopic, funky sound. Emotions will fly at Crisoph and Franky Wah’s b2b set. Mall Grab and KETTAMA will combine their raw and gritty house in a b2b, plus Hiroko Yamamura and DJ Minx will join forces for what is sure to be some floor-rocking techno and house.


Other highlights include Grammy-winning South African artist Black Coffee, serotonin soldier The Blessed Madonna, and South Korea's sensation Peggy Gou. Also on the bill are Innervisions label leaders Dixon and Âme with a special B2B, and the legendary UK pioneer Fatboy Slim, returning after last year's triumphant performance on the elrow stage.



Elrow, the beloved Spanish party collective, is set to make its highly anticipated return to ARC Music Festival with its exclusive stage takeover, making it the only US festival to host elrow this year. Known for its signature psychedelic production and over-the-top surprises, elrow has become one of the most celebrated brands in the world, with bespoke events taking place annually in Barcelona, Ibiza, New York, London, and Dubai, to name a few.



Set amidst the sprawling 14 acres of Union Park, ARC Music Festival promises curated, immersive production at each of its four stages. The Grid stage will feature its traditional industrial vibe, while Spain's beloved elrow promises to be as wild and outrageous as ever. Meanwhile, the Expansions Stage will showcase deeper sounds, and a new fourth stage will highlight international and national acts alongside the Midwest's top talent. 



Whether attendees yearn for the vibrant atmosphere of elrow or the more intimate setting of the Expansions stage, ARC has something for everyone.

Adam Beyer, Âme, Anfisa Letyago, Black Coffee, The Blessed Madonna, Boris Brejcha, Boys Noize, Cassy, Carlita, Carl Craig, Chloé Caillet, Collette, Cristoph, Dalton Taylor, David Castellani (live), Dax J, Dennis Cruz, Derrick Carter, Dixon, DJ Heather, DJ Lady D, DJ Minx, Dombresky, Eliana, Eli Brown

Los Angeles techno figureheads Drumcell and Truncate have a long history of performing together as Cell Injection. On September 16th, New York clubbers will witness their creative synergy firsthand at an undisclosed New York location.

Drumcell has a recording career dating back to high school and boasts studio engineer credits on records by bands like Maynard James Keenan’s (of Tool fame) Puscifer and Douglas McCarthy’s Black Line. He’s often cited as one of the first organizers of bonafide techno raves going back to 2000 and has released on labels like CLR and Blank Code.

Prior to adopting the stage name Truncate in 2011, David Flores performed as Audio Injection. He’s performed globally, and his music has received support from artists like DVS1, Ben Simms, and Joris Voorn.

At first, Cell Injection was the title of the two artists’ collaborative 2009 EP, borrowing a word from each of their aliases. The endeavor brought to their attention that possibilities lay brimming beneath the surface, calling for further exploration. The two artists have continued to record music under the project and have provided audiences worldwide with an unforgettable live experience.

Drumcell’s deliberate and purposeful approach to techno juxtaposes with Truncate’s improvisational risk-taking. Rather than clashing, the two schools of thought complement one another, owing in no small part to each artist’s technical skill and experience. A Cell Injection performance sheds light on a broad swath of the techno spectrum, with classic hardware sounds offset by cinematic basses across a seamless patchwork of selections.



An open-to-close set from the LA underground's fiercest champions befits a location with similar UG cred. And like the raves of days gone by, we're keeping the spot on lock. However, we can say that the New York venue has hosted dance music stalwarts like Delano Smith, Matthew Dear, Nakadia, and Four Tet.

Join us for a night a floor pounding techno with two of the genre’s most potent talents.


Cell Injection [Drumcell vs Truncate] Open-to-close

Secret New York Location TBA

After his sold-out rooftop show last spring, Grammy-award-winning producer CID returns for another hometown throwdown on September 22. This time the celebrated producer and DJ brings his bag of funky tech house to The Ruins at the historic Knockdown Center in Queens. Even though the Summer season has ended, we're not done with the open-air vibes yet! The Ruins are the perfect space to bask in that early autumn glow while dancing all day to the sounds of CID and friends.

The Queens-born artist has a mile-long resume featuring collaborations with Kaskade, Diplo, Westend, Dombresky, and BYOR. His GRAMMY-winning work with Cedric Gervais on their remix of Lana Del Rey's "Summertime Sadness" is just the tip of the iceberg. CID has released on diverse labels such as Tiesto's Musical Freedom, Lee Foss' Repopulate Mars, Sonny Fodera's Solotoko, and his own tastemaking imprint Night Service Only.

CID is always in a state of transformation and has built a career on forging his own path. His music is boundary-pushing, forward, funky, and dancefloor-filling. He had a mammoth year in 2022, dropping nearly a dozen records, including the massive hit "Carnaval de Paris," his The Game sampling collab with UK producer Joshwa, "How We Do," and the Beatport #1 "Let Me Take You" with Westend.




As a DJ, his skills are unsurpassed. And it's no surprise, as being behind the decks is what drew him into dance music, to begin with. Since he was a teen, CID has scoured the crates at New York record stores. An accomplished selector, CID has performed at EDC Vegas, Lollapalooza, Tomorrowland, elrow, and Ultra.




CID is taking over The Ruins, the backyard of the historic Knockdown Center, for an unforgettable experience. The spacious 19,000-square-foot dancefloor is an oasis. The vibrant outdoor space is buttressed by the former door factory's industrial facade creating one of the most innovative and intriguing open-air venues in all of New York.








CID & Friends Open-Air 

The Ruins at The Knockdown Center

Every heady fan of alternative pop and leftfield electronic music has been dreaming of a festival to cater to their specific and oftentimes snobby taste since they were little kids. A festival completely absent of any commercial appeal, where no bubble-headed newbies will mess up the pristine dancefloor vibes. Well, Portola is that festival.




Coming back to Pier 80 in San Francisco for its second edition on Saturday, September 30, and Sunday, October 1, this weekend extravaganza once again offers everything a mature music fan wants.









Simply put, this event is lineup-fist. Where it’s commonplace for other festivals to leverage ticket sales against glamorous VIP amenities and myriad “experiences” like carnival rides and commercial brand activations, Portola’s lure is based on music and music alone.




The headliners themselves already do quite a good job of getting old-school fans through the gates.




On Saturday, Eric Prydz is topping the bill with his always epic HOLO set. California fans were treated to this performance at Coachella back in April (Portola is another production from Goldenvoice, which puts on Coachella), but now the progressive legend will be the main attraction. There is little doubt he’ll devise new visual spectacles to venture out into the crowd for this slot.









Then on Sunday, Skrillex will be playing his first solo-festival headlining set since the release of his two albums, Quest For Fire and Don’t Get Too Close earlier this year.




Now, Skrillex might not seem like the headiest, alternative electronic artist out there, but after the last few months of playing joint sets with Four Tet and Fred Again.. (the latter of which caused the warehouse stage to close at Portola last year because it was so packed) he has proven he can hold his own amongst the more subtle side of dance music. Combine that with his tried and true festival bangers and this will be a set to remember.









Rounding out the lineup are various impressive talents like Charlotte De Witte, Labrinth, Underworld, Thundercat, and a Hybrid set from Carl Cox. Plus, the industrial setting of Pier 80 will provide a no-frills approach, clearing away any distractions from the intricate music and the wonderful people there to enjoy it.

Pier 80

Last year we brought French house and techno dynamo, Matt Sassari out to The Room at Superior Ingredients, and it was an absolute smash. His rhythmic minimal house and techno beats stole the hearts of the Brooklyn heads and undoubtedly made for memorable moments for all in attendance. On September 30, we’re bringing the young DJ/producer back to New York. This time he’s going bigger with a late-night set at Manhattan’s newest nightlife hotspot, MUSICA. And we’re making the night even sweeter with a set from the one-and-only Italian minimal tech maestro, Dimmish.

2021 was a breakthrough year for Sassari, who’s been toiling away turning heads in the underground since 2012. Even if you haven’t heard his name before, you’ve definitely danced your heart out to his chart-topping release “Give It To Me” —a slinky grinding rework of Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and Nelly Furtado’s 2007 hit single. The club favorite was the 27th best-selling track on Beatport last year, has racked up over 130M Spotify streams, and received heavy support from everyone from trance heavyweight Brian Kearney to mainstage titan Martin Garrix and house icon Roger Sanchez.



He continued his assault on the speakers in 2022 with over a dozen releases, including a remix of HUGEL and Cumbiafrica’s massive “Morenita” and the debut release for his label SASS. While some use their artist-led labels to release the bits and pieces they couldn’t sign elsewhere, Matt went big, dropping a grinding peak-hour techno banger with the legendary Green Velvet appropriately titled “Dance or Die.”



Matt masterfully slides between peak-hour techno and slinky tech house, lacing every track with his trademark swinging grooves and sub-swelling basslines. With millions of streams across all platforms, his global network of fans stay thirsty for his beats.



Matt Sassari is nothing short of a rising superstar with well-established skills behind the decks. However, an appearance in the States is rare. And Musica is a fitting location for his dark and dirty beats. Blending the anonymity of a warehouse with a premium club experience, Musica’s industrial brick-walled design is accented with LED screens and a state-of-the-art sound system.



So don’t miss out on this chance to groove to the funky beat, as Sassari is undoubtedly destined for the biggest festival stages very soon.

Touted the best music event in the world by ravers, professionals, and award shows alike, Tomorrowland is one of the largest electronic music festivals in the world. Blooming in Belgium in 2005 as a one-day event with nearly 10,000 attendees, Tomorrowland has evolved into a multi-day, multi-weekend celebration. Since 2017, the Belgium festival has spanned two full weekends, welcoming over 400,000 attendees annually. Naturally, Tomorrowland ripened into an international affair, expanding its footprint to include TomorrowWorld in Georgia outside of Atlanta (2013-2015), Tomorrowland Winter in France, and Tomorrowland Brasil.

The first Tomorrowland Brasil took place in the spring of 2015 in Itu, São Paulo, following an announcement on David Guetta’s livestreamed Tomorrowland set the previous year. The first edition hosted renowned names like Hardwell, Steve Aoki, Jamie Jones, Armin van Buuren, and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, enjoyed by nearly 200,000 attendees. The following year saw headliners like Alesso, Afrojack, Loco Dice, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, and David Guetta, in addition to many returning names. Unfortunately, Tomorrowland was unable to return to Brazil the following year due to the country’s economic turmoil, followed by a six-year hiatus.

In December 2022, Tomorrowland confirmed its return to Brazil in the following year. Tomorrowland Brasil makes a monumental return to São Paulo on October 12-14, 2023 at Parque Maeda. Just like every other Tomorrowland event, Tomorrowland Brasil sold out quick, in just under three hours, proving its highly-anticipated return to South America. 



The entrancing three-day experience will be centered on the Reflection of Love theme, representing love and unity as music lovers from around the world come together in harmony for an unparalleled audio-visual spectacle. As a truly immersive experience, attendees have the option to camp at DreamVille from October 11-15.

Across multiple grandoise stages, Tomorrowland Brasil hosts hundreds of artists spanning the electronic spectrum, from underground visionaries and emerging powerhouses to mainstage mainstays, local legends, and genre pioneers, as well as many returning names. 



Festival veterans like Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Steve Aoki, and Steve Angello will be returning, in addition to local stars like Alok and Vintage Culture. Other notable names set to perform at Tomorrowland Brasil’s grand return include Acraze, Afrojack, Don Diablo, Martin Garrix, NGHTMRE, Tiësto, Sebastian Ingrosso, and many more. Iconic Tomorrowland stages like the mystical CORE stage will make its debut in Brazil, hosting some of the most supurb names in house and techno.

See for yourself why Tomorrowland is declared one of the biggest and best festivals in the world by so many. Tickets are sold out, but join the waitlist for a chance to attend.
