Tomorrowland Belgium 2026 Guide: Lineup, Livestream, Must-See Sets and Everything You Need to Know Before It Kicks Off July 17

16 July, Thursday 56
Festival

Tomorrowland Belgium returns for its 20th edition, and Weekend 1 kicks off tomorrow, running July 17-19, 2026, followed by Weekend 2 on July 24-26 at De Schorre in Boom, Belgium. This year's theme is "Consciencia", Portuguese for consciousness, building the festival's universe around six human emotions: love, anger, joy, wonder, desire and sadness. The grounds hold 16 stages and over 500 artists, with attendance across both weekends expected to reach around 400,000 people of over 200 nationalities.

Both weekends are completely sold out, so sold out that fake ticket scams have been reported. For anyone in Thailand without a ticket, the way in is the livestream, which is entirely free. And this year there is a bigger reason to watch than ever, because in five months Tomorrowland brings this same Consciencia universe to Chonburi.

- Dates and Broadcast Times (in Bangkok Time) -

Weekend 1: July 17-19, 2026

Weekend 2: July 24-26, 2026

Location: De Schorre, Boom, Belgium

The official video livestream schedule for Weekend 1 is out. There are two channels: Channel 1 broadcasts the Mainstage and Channel 2 covers the Freedom stage, streaming on tomorrowland.com, the Tomorrowland app and Tomorrowland's YouTube channel. Friday and Saturday start at 14:00 CEST (19:00 Bangkok time) and Sunday at 14:30 CEST (19:30 Bangkok time), running through the end of each night. The Weekend 2 broadcast schedule hasn't been announced, so check the live page on tomorrowland.com closer to the date.

On the audio side, One World Radio broadcasts every festival day from 12:00 to 01:00 CEST (17:00 to around 06:00 the next morning Bangkok time), 13 hours a day covering sets from 7 stages, wider than the video side. Artists like Amelie Lens, Sara Landry and Indira Paganotto, who aren't on the Weekend 1 video schedule, do have broadcast sets confirmed, just without a channel or weekend attached, so watch for schedule updates.

Put simply, watching from Thailand means early evening to dawn. Warm up from 17:00, screens on from 19:00, and each night's closing set lands in our early morning hours.

This year's update is Apple Music Club Radio, broadcasting audio of selected sets from 6 stages, free, Weekend 1 only, starting daily at 15:00 CEST (20:00 Bangkok time). The program includes Armin van Buuren, Calvin Harris, David Guetta, Martin Garrix, FISHER, John Summit, Sara Landry, Bedouin and Jazzy, with some sets available for replay in Spatial Audio with a subscription.

- Must-See Sets -

Headliners

Martin Garrix closes the Mainstage on Friday night of Weekend 1 at 23:45 CEST (04:45 Saturday morning Bangkok time), meaning he opens the festival's 20th edition from the closing slot of its very first night. He returns on Sunday, July 26 for Weekend 2.

Calvin Harris plays Tomorrowland Belgium for the first time in his career. The festival is 20 editions in and he is only just arriving. He takes the Mainstage on Sunday of Weekend 1 at 22:50 CEST (03:50 Monday morning Bangkok time) and plays again on Saturday of Weekend 2. If you want to see Calvin Harris's first moment at this festival, it costs one night of sleep.

David Guetta closes the Mainstage on Saturday night of Weekend 1 at 23:30 CEST (04:30 Sunday morning Bangkok time), right after Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, who take the Mainstage the same night at 03:15 Sunday morning Bangkok time. Hardwell plays Friday of Weekend 2.

Weekend 1's Mainstage is also stacked with The Chainsmokers and Sebastian Ingrosso on Friday night (02:40 and 03:45 Saturday morning Bangkok time), FISHER on Saturday night (02:10 Sunday morning) and John Summit and Alesso on Sunday night (01:40 and 02:45 Monday morning). Armin van Buuren, per the Weekend 1 broadcast schedule, is on the Freedom stage Saturday night at 03:30 Sunday morning Bangkok time.

Just as worth watching are the two artists making their Mainstage debuts this year: Novah, a hard techno artist from Belgium itself, and Marlon Hoffstadt from Germany.

B2B Sets

Hardwell b2b Sub Zero Project is a world premiere for this pairing, it has never happened anywhere before. There is also KETTAMA b2b Michael Bibi in Weekend 1, while Kevin de Vries b2b MEDUZA gets a full two and a half hours at the completely redesigned Crystal Garden. Over at CORE there is Sasha b2b Young Marco, and Avalon Emerson b2b Ben UFO is among the sets Apple Music broadcasts during Weekend 1, so you can listen from Thailand for sure.

Underground / Techno

The Atmosphere stage lines up Amelie Lens, I Hate Models, Indira Paganotto, AZYR and BiiA b2b Charlie Sparks. CORE, beyond Sasha b2b Young Marco, has Modeselektor (DJ set), Sally C, Bibi Seck and Eileen, while Sara Landry is on the program and on the list of broadcast sets, so keep your ears ready.

And this is just our shortlist. The full lineup of over 500 artists across all 16 stages is on the lineup page at tomorrowland.com.

- Why This Year Matters -

First, this is the 20th edition, and Tomorrowland is celebrating with new builds almost everywhere. The Mainstage is a brand-new design under the Consciencia theme, the new "Celestia" stage (with KuCoin) replaces the old Rise stage with a celestial butterfly design representing transformation, and Crystal Garden has been fully redesigned. Add Calvin Harris's first appearance and a Mainstage opening its doors to first-timers Novah and Marlon Hoffstadt, and this becomes one of the years with the most new things to see.

But the bigger reason for Thai fans is Tomorrowland Thailand. Tomorrowland's first festival in Asia happens December 11-13, 2026 at Wisdom Valley in Khao Mai Kaew, Bang Lamung, Chonburi, on roughly 1,400 rai (560 acres) with 6 stages including the Mainstage, CORE and Freedom, the latter two coming to Asia for the first time. It targets 50,000 attendees per day, runs as a collaboration with the Thai government and the Tourism Authority of Thailand, and uses the same Consciencia theme as Belgium, connecting one universe across Belgium, Thailand and Brazil. Read the full story at [EDM Addicts Tomorrowland Thailand article link].

Which means the festival happening over these two weekends is an early preview of the Chonburi edition. Consciencia is the same theme, and CORE, the stage Sasha b2b Young Marco plays this year, is the same stage making its Asian debut in December. Watching the livestream this year is seeing the real thing in advance, before deciding whether you will be standing there yourself this December.
