FESTIVAL CURIOSITIES

Neither the January slope nor inflation have undermined the illusions of the around
600,000 people
from different parts of the world who every year attend an appointment where some of the most important DJs in the world perform.
With the exception of the island of Ibiza, famous for its partying, it is difficult to gather on the same stage artists like Tïësto, Calvin Harris, Martin Garrix, David Guetta or Armin van Buuren, among many other names.
To get an idea of what moves Tomorrowland, some information provided by the organization of the festival itself is enough.
According to Bjorn Declerck, production, about 12,000 people
are employed
, and of these there are 200 dedicated exclusively to content creation.
The
MainStage
or main stage requires an investment of five million euros and changes every year, like the theme of the festival itself.
The musicians have a "city" to themselves, where they can rest.
It is broadcast live and has its own radio station on the premises, as well as a daily newspaper that reports on each day of the festival.
As for security, in addition to private security, there is a police force and a meteorology team in case of inclement weather.
Even aerial drones control every square meter.
Despite being a "very expensive" production, says Declerck, some
38,000 people
decide to invest their savings or spend their vacations in DreamVille, the festival town that houses non-Belgians in a campsite.
Because half of the tickets are for natives.
And the rest are distributed among the five continents, with preferential access for the first 20 of each country.
It is curious how, for example, Australia is in the top 10 most frequent nationalities in Tomorrowland.
