Tomorrowland Festival – Belgium

Yesterday is history,
Today is a gift,
Tomorrow is mystery…
Whilst I sit seething with jealousy in the southern hemisphere at what I am about to miss, plans are well underway in Belgium for the annual Tomorrowland festival. This beast of a dance party rocks the town of ‘Boom‘ every July with three days of 400 DJs and world-class acts. You would be mad to be in Europe and not go.
Whilst us party people here in Australia can only dream of attending such an event, those with tickets are dusting off their camping tents in preparation for three days of music, lasers, exotic props and presumably excessive consumption of… hmm, you get the drift.
The 250,000 festival goers will be dancing away to top entertainers like David Guetta, Swedish House Mafia, Steve Aoki, Carl Cox, Pendulum, Skillrex and Afrojack (to name just a few).
If you don’t have a ticket yet your shit out of luck. Some tickets are currently floating around on eBay but be prepared to fork out top dollar… most are sitting at $1000 a pop. Just received a bonus from work? Just won lotto? Well – you know what to do! Seriously though, it is worth planing in advance for this annual event as tickets this year sold out within 1 hour of release.
See this video that was the wrap up of the 2011 festival so you can see what you’re missing:
