Mainstage of Tomorrowland goes up in flames tomorrow
The annual electronic music event, Tomorrowland 2025, was shaken by an unexpected incident when a fire broke out on the mainstage just before the opening of the first weekend. The flames and smoke could be seen throughout Boom, the site of the event.
Despite the disruption, organizers acted swiftly and rebuilt a new stage in a makeshift form, incorporating debris and materials from the original stage, including components from Metallica’s touring rig. The new mainstage features a minimalist and bold design, and the festival proceeded almost uninterrupted. Festivalgoers even witnessed the final touches being completed on site, cheering on the crew as the gates reopened.
The rebuilt mainstage will remain unchanged for the festival’s second weekend, with only light adjustments planned. The venue, De Schorre, has also reopened with safety confirmed and attractions returning after the fire incident.
At this time, no official announcement regarding the Mainstage fire and its potential effects on Tomorrowland’s programming has been made by the Tomorrowland team. No information about injuries or casualties related to the fire has been reported. Fire and rescue crews are still on-site to control the flames and assess the damage from the Mainstage fire at Tomorrowland.
Updates about the Mainstage fire at Tomorrowland and its potential effects on the event will be provided as more information becomes available. The full Tomorrowland schedule and livestream program can be viewed on the official website.
