Tomorrowland, the legendary Belgian electronic dance music (EDM) festival, is officially making its long-awaited debut in Asia this year. After years of speculation and anticipation, a new era for dance music fans will begin across the continent. Tomorrowland will host a special preview event in China’s Shanghai in late 2025, followed by the festival’s first full-scale Asian edition in Thailand in 2026. This expansion marks a major milestone for the global festival circuit—promising vibrant music, lights, and culture unlike anything Asia has ever seen before. Here’s what we know about Tomorrowland Asia.
Tomorrowland’s first-ever indoor showcase
Tomorrowland will bring its magic to Shanghai, before the main event in Thailand, with the festival’s first-ever indoor showcase. The Magic of Tomorrowland is scheduled to take place on November 22, 2025, at the Hero Dome. Fans can expect an immersive experience that will blend Tomorrowland’s signature stage design, world-class DJs, and cutting-edge production under one roof. Read on to find out how to get tickets for Tomorrowland Shanghai starting in September 2025.
Tomorrowland Thailand 2026 debut
Tomorrowland fans will have to wait a little longer for the game-changing event in Thailand. The first-ever full festival on Asian soil will take place in December 2026 in Thailand’s Chonburi. Interestingly, the location was chosen for its vast event spaces, beautiful coastal setting, and easy access via multiple international airports—for the hundreds of thousands of festival-goers expected to descend on the nation from around the globe.
Tomorrowland Thailand is backed by a multi-billion baht investment and a long-term contract that could see Tomorrowland in the country for at least five years—possibly up to 10. Attendees can look forward to a multi-day experience, exclusive travel and hotel packages, and a festival model inspired by the iconic Belgian edition. Meanwhile, the festival is set to launch an Event Academy to boost the skulls of Thai event professionals, further cementing Thailand’s status as a global entertainment hub.
Additionally, the festival will showcase Thai culture, spotlight local artists, and engage the community, in order to set a new benchmark for international events in the region.
How to get tickets
Details about tickets and artist lineups are set to drop at a later date. For The Magic of Tomorrowland in Shanghai on November 22, fans can pre-register now via the INS Land WeChat mini-program and app to secure early access and exclusive awards. Although, official ticket sales will begin in September 2025.
For Tomorrowland Thailand 2026, ticketing details are expected to be released closer to the event. However, demand is expected to be sky-high. Therefore, early registration and staying tuned to official channels is essential for anyone hoping to experience this historic moment in Asia.
Wonderfully, Shanghai is located five-hours direct flight from Singapore Changi Airport. Meanwhile, Chonburi can be reached via a two-hours direct flight to Bangkok, followed by public transport.
Certainly, the arrival of Tomorrowland in Asia is more than just a party—it’s a strategic move to position Asia as a top destination for mega-events and boost tourism.
