The Gathering
The Gathering is a special pre-party event for Dreamville residents or those with the Global Journey package. Entrance is included for these select few. Several thousand people gather to enjoy this warm-up concert and party that goes late into the night, setting the stage for what is to come at the Tomorrowland festival.
Pro-Tips
- Take extreme care of your wristband. It’s your ATM card and your entrance ticket
- Load up your bracelet with currency before you get to the festival
- Lockers are available for items that you don’t want to carry around all day
- Bring water bottle caps. Bottles are sold sans cap, so these will come in handy!
- Leave as early as possible on Monday morning to avoid the transportation queues
- Allow 4-5 hours from festival grounds to airport
Useful Apps/Resources
Of course one of the largest music festivals in the world has its own app. The Tomorrowland Phone App has lineup schedules, festival maps, FAQs and the ability to drop a location pin on your campsite in case you get lost during the night. The app will be available for download 2 weeks prior to the festival. Our advice: don’t head to Tomorrowland without it!
