Music Blog - Tomorrowland

Tomorrowland is an electronic dance music festival that consists of the most popular DJ’s across the globe. Some of the most modern and popular artists make appearances there; such as David Guetta, who has made multiple appearances through the years, Tiesto, Avicii, Steve Aoki, Swedish House Mafia, Afrojack, Hardwell, Skrillex, Alesso, Otto Knows, The Chainsmokers, and beyond. Tomorrowland is held in Boom, Belgium and first revealed its presence in the late-summer month of August in 2005. Since then, Tomorrowland has impacted music and technology and has made its trademark by becoming one of the most extraordinary music festivals, which extends over the last two weekends of July, and is sold out within minutes of the tickets going on sale. As of 2018, the attendance rate consisted of 400,000 people, spread across the two weekends, and sold out within an hour. Tomorrowland consists of a theme each year, where the staging and sceneries make these themes come alive and make up the overall experience consisting of vibrant colors, lights, and music vibrating deep within the ground and extending over acres of land. Multiple stages are spread across these acres of land, so the population is spread out, while people set up camps and become one with nature for the weekend. On Tomorrowland’s website, they state “The people of tomorrow, we believe in a commitment to create a reality that relates positively with mother nature and contributes to the well-being of the next generations. Let’s engage with each other and do something good today, for which we will be grateful for tomorrow.” Tomorrowland is much more than just a music festival, it stands for a universal event in which different people, from different backgrounds, from different areas of the world come together and put aside those differences to enjoy something they all have in common; music, while being united in a once in a lifetime experience!
