Earlier this year the trance DJ was announced for Tomorrowland Winter 2022 alongside Adriatique, Afrojack, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Kungs, Lost Frequencies, Martin Solveig, Ofenbach, Paul Kalkbrenner, Quintino and Yves V.

The electronic dance music-focused festival, which is usually held in Belgium, was forced to cancel both its 2020 and 2021 editions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Tomorrowland is now aiming to return from March 19-26, 2022 by bringing back Tomorrowland Winter, which debuted back in March 2019.

The festival will take place at the Alpe d’Huez ski resort in the French Alps, with the music programme set to play out on a series of stages situated at an altitude of more than 2000m.

Tomorrowland also staged a digital New Year’s Eve festival back in December which used 1,200 virtual fireworks, 184 virtual lasers, 2,750 virtual lights and 40,000 light cues.
