I hope you were wearing a seatbelt when you logged on to buy Tomorrowlands tickets because you would have had to be breaking the speed of sound in order to get your hands on tickets. That's because over 2 million people were in line, ready to purchase tickets last saturday. As a result tickets went in matter of minutes.
In order to prepare for the massive sale of tickets, ID&T, the producers of Tomorrowlands, took extra procautions after they had a server meltdown during the Belgian pre-sale two weeks ago. This required global servers in preparation for the main sale that took place on Saturday 7th April.
Early estimates from Tomorrowland’s official hosting partner indicate that a staggering 100 MILLION clicks took place in a matter of seconds. Due to the fact, another unavoidable crash of www.tomorrowland.be happened. Nevertheless, the ticketing page remained intact and ran smoothly due to the extra precautions.
The festival capacity of 180,000 including thousands that opted for the festival’s ‘Dreamville’ luxury camping option is now SOLD OUT, making this the fastest selling edition of Tomorrowland ever.
If you were unable to score tickets to Tomorrowland, they do have some good new ahead. Although we don't know exactly what that news is, it appears a live stream could be in the works. Stay tuned for news on that.
