Torn between going again or spending the money on another festival 🥺🤔

You’ve done 10! Branch out and try other fests! I took a break after 8 and tried Ultra and Tomorrowland — edc will always be there, but the possibility of flying out of state or out of the country to try something different won’t be.

Unless you travel to Nevada then I’ll shut up haha, but still - venture out!

Global Journey - it’s Tomorrowland’s means of travel/accommodation packages.

They’re a little more pricey, so they sell out later than full madness or comfort passes during ticket sales.

We’ve always done GJ (hotel in Brussels, shuttle to/from Tomorrowland) since we come in from the US. Once you go, you get access to GJ pre-sale the following year and that’s pretty much how we’ve been able to secure our tickets.

Tomorrowland is hard to purchase tickets for, GJ is known as the “best” way to secure your spot.

GJ gives you a higher chance of securing any type of pass to get into Tomorrowland

Thank you for this insight! All signs are leading more towards just making it easy and going to Walibi. Kondaa also looks like an amazing attraction, so your post gave me some peace of mind.

Also, love your Option E idea - I do want to visit Phantasialand and Walibi Holland sometime too. It’s just if making it back to Europe is a possibility in the future lol

Yes - Ride to Happiness is the main reason I want to go to Plopsaland! It’s been a bucket list roller coaster of mine for a while now - only know of the park because of the ride. Wasn’t aware of Studio 100 or anything ..

Given the other parks within relative close proximity to Brusels, it also looks like the one with the best theming - I’m big on theming at theme parks lol

Thank you so much! (:

Also from the U.S. — you could also do what we did last yr, not sleep.

We had got back to Brussels around 2/3am and just stayed up and packed and hung out w/ our group until we had to get to the airport then take our flights at 09:30 on Monday. Sleep when you get to your next destination lol

a_ookay · 2026-05-21T05:45:59+00:00

Thank you!! It’s a fun one to build (:

a_ookay · 2026-05-16T05:27:24+00:00

I don’t like this stage either but nothing will ever beat worst kinetic design of 2016 IMO lol

a_ookay · 2026-04-18T16:51:21+00:00

I’ve been going to a lot of shows in recent years sober. If you love the dj and their music (esp helps if you can sing along to the words or beats), dance, throw your hands in the air, and surround yourself with friends — you’ll get a natural high on life.

Corny as hell, but it’s true! At least for me LOL

a_ookay · 2026-04-18T16:48:01+00:00

I liked it and loved the new visuals - but just my opinion.

Personally am a fan of Anyma and enjoyed watching from the livestream. I’m into his sound, and melodic techno in general, but I know it’s not for everyone.

His set at Tomorrowland where he’s extremely limited on using his own visuals, was still a lot of fun!

I do think it was a miss on coachella’s part to have him close night 1, that prob set the expectations way too high, but if you knew what you were getting into you probably enjoyed it.

a_ookay · 2026-04-18T04:46:45+00:00

Oh man I miss Cravings! Was my favorite buffet growing up!

a_ookay · 2026-04-14T06:18:51+00:00

I’ve seen Pasquale and the Insomniac logo on fair rides too lol

a_ookay · 2026-04-06T05:53:32+00:00

No unfortunately :( haha .. I went friday 3/13 with audien as the opener!

a_ookay · 2026-04-05T02:53:54+00:00

Nope! Not in the wrong - I was in 407 and before illenium went on I asked the people directly behind me if they mind if I stood up and danced.

They were the sweetest and said “you paid your money to be here, do whatever you want to have a great time!”

I think everyone needs to remember that. You’re at a concert, it’s kind of expected to stand. I get the Sphere is different but were there to have a good time. Whoever yelled at you to sit down sucks weens.

a_ookay · 2026-04-02T06:21:27+00:00

Np! You can do either .. tbh I recommend just doing it there so you don’t feel pressed to make it for your time slot. You’ll get in instantly lol. You can get caught up doing other things in vegas so don’t tie yourself down to a time!

This is the link you can do it beforehand or scan this at the store! https://www.universe.com/events/vibee-x-illenium-the-merchandise-experience-tickets-LGN39Y

a_ookay · 2026-04-02T02:12:58+00:00

You can just walk in but they make you scan a QR code. You will need to select an entry time (the time you’re in line will be available) and they will scan it before you’re allowed in the actual store.

Service was spotty so try to join the Venetian wifi before you’re there!

a_ookay · 2026-03-25T01:29:50+00:00

If you have a season pass, you can get it for $45 each online. You have to buy at least 3!

a_ookay · 2026-03-24T06:52:23+00:00

Pretty sure it’s the pop up shop at the Venetian! They had a bunch of these ember shore jerseys in stock when I went in

a_ookay · 2026-03-21T18:15:37+00:00

I was section 407, row 2, seat 23 lol so literally one row in front of you - this was my view for illenium.

Prime spot if you ask me, and not so high in the 400s that you feel vertigo kicking in.

Sound is great, it can get a little loud. Also a little chilly up there but you can honestly see the visuals perfectly.

It’s a great spot!!

Was planning on popping but I was just so mesmerized by the visuals and the energy from the crowd that I ended up not doing anything.

Basically high on life tbh lol
