Following the successful debut of The Magic of Tomorrowland in China, Shanghai continues to play an important role in Tomorrowland’s long-term vision for Asia. The expanded two-day format reflects the growing enthusiasm for the Tomorrowland experience across the region and further strengthens the festival’s commitment to bringing world-class entertainment to Asian audiences.

Debby Wilmsen, Spokesperson for Tomorrowland, said: “We look forward to coming back to China for the second edition of The Magic of Tomorrowland. The first show was a huge success: from the incredible venue and the energy of the audience to our strong partnership with Hero Esports, INS LAND and Budweiser. We are thinking long term and look forward to continuing our journey in Shanghai. This year’s theme, Planaxis, invites fans to our underwater world. As with last year’s Paperworld edition, we are creating an experience that is completely new. While fans will recognise the signature spirit of Tomorrowland it will also feature elements created specifically for these shows. So if you want to see this stage, you have to go to the shows in China.”

A decade of partnership: Budweiser and Tomorrowland

The Budweiser Live music platform, the on-site experience zones will deliver multiple surprises and bring together music, beverages and celebration culture in a highly immersive electronic music celebration. ​ This year, Budweiser is introducing the limited-edition “Planaxis” Budweiser Magnum. The choice of Budweiser Magnum as the collaboration carrier reflects Budweiser’s deep understanding of nighttime celebration occasions. As Budweiser’s premium product line, Budweiser Magnum delivers a richer flavor and smoother taste, adding texture and depth to celebratory moments.

Che Qi, Chief Marketing Officer of Budweiser China, said: “Budweiser and Tomorrowland have worked together for ten years, and we have always believed that truly enduring IP partnerships must be rooted in the cultural occasions consumers genuinely love. For Budweiser, music is not only a way to engage young adult consumers, but also an important platform for creating celebration, social connection and emotional resonance. We hope to develop Tomorrowland into an evolving urban cultural experience, deepening the connection between world-class music content, the local nighttime economy and city vitality, while allowing Budweiser to become a more natural part of how people celebrate, gather and share meaningful moments.”

INS SEA, a new era for Shanghai’s Huangpu riverside

This year, the festival coincides with the launch of INS SEA; a brand new stretch of entertainment area in south Huangpu Riverside. INS SEA encapsulates several landmark sites including: the existing Shanghai KPL Esports Center and Hero Dome.

Danny Tang, Co-Founder and CEO of Hero Esports, said: After the overwhelming response to our first collaboration with Tomorrowland, we knew we had to go bigger, not just for one festival, but for the future of Shanghai’s entertainment landscape. That’s why we’ve upgraded Hero Dome, which is now home to an incredible 99-metre LED curved screen and a fully immersive visual arena. This isn’t a one-off event, it’s a long-term commitment.
