Tomorrowland teases Virtual New Years Festival with online countdown

News

Tomorrowland has teased their upcoming Virtual New Years Festival with an online countdown.

Earlier this year, Tomorrowland debuted a digital edition of the Belgian festival, Tomorrowland Around The World, after the flaship 2020 event was cancelled due to coronavirus. 

Now, after sharing that a New Years Eve event would take place, Tomorrowland has shared a countdown to the end of 2020 via their website, with a message simply reading: “More Info: November 10th”. 

Speaking to Billboard, which first revealed the news of the NYE event, Tomorrowland co-founder Michiel Beers said: “We believe that digital will exist next to live.  We also believe that we have to create moments that people really want to see [us] livestream in a special way, and really see it as a small event.”

You can see the countdown via the Tomorrowland website.

Last month, following the cancellation of Tomorrowland Winter 2020, which was due to take place in France this March, Tomorrowland shared a statement advising that next year’s winter installment would also be cancelled.
