Ticketholders for the 2025 Tomorrowland music festival can breathe a sigh of relief. Not only was no one harmed in the massive blaze which recently engulfed and eventually destroyed the fest’s main stage, but the event will officially go on as previously planned.<\/p>\n

“We can announce that, DreamVille (campsite) will open tomorrow (Thursday, July 17) as planned and will be ready for all DreamVille visitors. All Global Journey activities in Brussels and Antwerp will take place as planned,” read a post shared Wednesday on the\u00a0Instagram page<\/a>\u00a0of the annual electronic music festival held in Boom, Belgium.<\/p>\n

“We are focused on finding solutions for the festival weekend (Friday \u2013 Saturday \u2013 Sunday), the post continued. “More updates and detailed information will be communicated as soon as possible.”<\/p>\n

Belgian news broadcaster\u00a0VRT<\/a>\u00a0reported that the fire broke out around 6 p.m. local time on Wednesday, or 12 p.m. ET. Within hours, the flames completely engulfed the festival’s massive main stage, which has been totally leveled. It is unclear whether a cause has been determined, as no cause has been announced to the public.<\/p>\n

Though no ticket-holders had entered the festival when the fire broke out, around 1,000 employees were on site. Firefighters were still on the scene late Wednesday evening, and some neighboring residents have been evacuated.<\/p>\n

Tomorrowland is set to run two consecutive weekends, from July 18-20, and again from July 25-27. The festival began humbly in 2005 and has since grown into a sprawling, multi-stage, multimedia experience, featuring music, food, art installations, light shows, and other immersive components.<\/p>\n
