Disaster struck the iconic Tomorrowland music festival in Boom, Belgium, just days before it was set to kick off! A massive fire ripped through the main stage on Wednesday, leaving it severely damaged. Festival organisers confirmed the devastating news, stating, "Our beloved main stage has been severely damaged."
Thankfully, no injuries were reported as a result of the blaze. The cause of the fire remains unknown, and investigations are underway to determine what sparked the inferno.
Videos circulating on social media paint a dramatic picture of the scene, with thick plumes of black smoke billowing into the sky and flames consuming the elaborate main stage structure. One eyewitness described it as "an apocalyptic scene," recounting the sudden bangs and the rapid spread of the fire. The festival employee lamented the loss of four weeks of hard work, gone in a mere half-hour.
Firefighters are working tirelessly to contain the blaze and prevent it from spreading to nearby homes and woodlands. Some residents have been evacuated as a precautionary measure.
Despite the setback, Tomorrowland organisers have vowed that the festival will go on. The campsite, DreamVille, is still scheduled to open on Thursday as planned. In a statement, they assured festival-goers that they are "focused on finding solutions for the festival weekend" and that the event will proceed without the main stage.
Tomorrowland is one of the world's largest and most renowned electronic dance music festivals, attracting hundreds of thousands of music lovers from across the globe. This year's lineup includes superstar DJs such as David Guetta, Lost Frequencies, Swedish House Mafia, and Charlotte De Witte. The festival is scheduled to run over two weekends, with the first weekend kicking off on Friday.
