Tomorrowland announces full digital festival line-up: Claptone, Gryffin, NERVO, many more
Venerated festival bohemoth, Tomorrowland, was among the first festivals to call off its 2020 edition over COVID-19. That was back in April and while much was still unknown about the pandemic at the time, the Boom, Belgium-based festival made the pre-emptive decision to cancelled its dual weekends in July. Turns out, it was the right call to make. Earlier this month, Tomorrowland HQ then announced its first-ever foray into the world of virtual with its forthcoming digital festival, dubbed Tomorrowland Around the World. Organizers have now released the event’s lineup, which is every bit as tremendous as one would expect from the global mega-festival spectacle.
The two-day digital festival will take place July 25 through July 26 with a line-up that includes all the regular culprits in the cast of dance music stardom. Adam Beyer, Armin van Buuren, Charlotte de Witte, David Guetta, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Gryffin, NGHTMRE, Afrojack, Nervo, Martin Garrix, Amelie Lens, Steve Aoki, Tiësto, and Timmy Trumpet are all among the laundry list of noteworthy acts to regularly grace the event.
In a press release issued in conjunction with the line-up announcement, organizers also unveiled a sneak peek into the magical world of Tomorrowland Around the World:
- The world’s best technology in 3D design, video production, gaming and special effects
- Eight stages, including its iconic Mainstage, which will introduce a new live concept called “The Reflection of Love – Chapter 1.”
- Interactive experiences on a number of the festival’s signature stages, like Atmosphere, Core, and Freedom Stage.
- More interactive experiences including inspirational webinars, games, and workshops.
- There will be a ‘time-zone-friendly’ option for visitors from Asia and North or South America.
- Viewers only need new a PC, laptop, smartphone, or tablet – no special VR goggles needed.
According to the press release, The People of Tomorrow are also “invited to experience this unique event together with friends: dressing up with your best festival outfit, putting up tents in your back garden to create your own DreamVille, setting up a big screen, inviting your beloved ones for a nice barbecue with music and an amazing festival experience, decorating your balcony or throwing a party in your living room – this weekend is all about uniting through the power of music in a responsible and safe way.”
