Just ahead of Tomorrowland 2025's opening, fire breaks out on the main stage as emergency services work to contain it
A fire has broken out on Tomorrowland’s main stage just days before the festival’s scheduled opening.
Images circulating on social media and local news outlets appear to show flames and heavy smoke rising from the iconic stage structure. The smoke has reportedly been visible from multiple areas across Boom, the Belgian town that annually hosts the globally renowned festival.
Emergency response teams have been deployed to the scene and have begun efforts to contain the blaze. As of now, Tomorrowland’s organisers have not issued an official statement regarding the incident.
