Tomorrowland furthers its expansion.
Woah! It looks like Tomorrowland is slowly taking over the world. From its original festival in Boom, the people behind one of the most popular dance music festival who has announced for a Brazil instalment in 2015 will now be making their way to India too! After over a month of speculation, Tomorrowland’s expansion into the Indian subcontinent is about to become a reality.

Following the confirmation by Tourism Minister of Goa, Dilip Parulekar, in his statement to local news outlet Goa Com,
“Apart from the proposal received from Precept Company and VH1 Supersonic to host musical events in December, we have also received a proposal from one of the most notable global music festival groups, Tomorrowland”
The issue that the operation currently faces is the venue search. Parulekar goes on to share that,
“the event organizers have approached us and have shown interest to host the event in mid-January, but the responsibility for identification of land will be [taken care of by] the group since they require 3.5lakh (100,000 square meters), which is particularly difficult to [find].”
As the search goes on, the fate of a Tomorrowland expansion into the Goan lands is seemingly tied to the ability of SFX and ID&T to procure licenses for a large venue that could contain an event of this magnitude. We can only imagine how amazing it would be if this expansion comes true.
Whilst we wait for updates on the expansion, we leave you with the Official Aftermovie of Tomorrowland 2014.
