concert event

Many of the festival's sets, decorations, and props, such as the main stage, were used at the Tomorrowland festival in Belgium and then shipped across the Atlantic Ocean for TomorrowWorld. The main stage, measuring more than 400 feet wide and 100 feet tall, included a computer-controlled volcano and multiple waterfalls.

The DreamVille camping area hosted about 40,000 overnight guests each of the four nights.

The DreamVille “Easy Tent” option provided guests a two- or four-person tent with an air mattress, sleeping bag, and night-light.

The most luxurious accommodations in DreamVille were the Dream Lodges—large, elevated tents with a full-size bed, a mattress, linens, a locker, electricity, and a deck with chairs and a table. The lodges were produced by Dutch company G3 Festivals, and TomorrowWorld was the first time they were used in the United States.

Within DreamVille’s Marketplace, guests could shop for clothing, camping gear, festival memorabilia, arts and crafts, groceries, and a variety of ready-to-eat food. There was also a salon and spa that offered hair styling and massages.

While the official music lineup did not begin until Friday, Thursday night saw several DJs play on an elaborate stage within Dreamville for guests who had already moved into their tents.

Organizers provided each guest with a leather bracelet containing an R.F.I.D. chip. The bracelet served as an entry ticket and also as the sole form of payment at the festival. Attendees could load money onto their bracelets before the event and also add to it at “top up” stations throughout the grounds.

In the T-Mobile Sonic Garden, guests lounged inside pink and white structures meant to resemble seed pods. The lounges included comfortable seating and phone-charging stations.

From a small stage within the T-Mobile Sonic Garden, four up-and-coming DJs performed each day.

Sponsor Zipcar provided its members premium parking and a lounge that offered comfortable seating, phone-charging stations, and—appropriately—a zip line.

Within sponsor Bud Light’s House of Whatever, festivalgoers could toss a cake at someone in a target, take a photo with the “Mayor of Whatever” in front of an office backdrop, and play “Pin the Arms on the DJ.” The large carnival-style lounge also had a dance floor and a makeover salon offering hair styling, coloring, and shaving.

Throughout the festival, organizers offered activities for guests such as cornhole, boccie, yoga, cardio workouts, Twister, and even speed dating.

Fireworks illuminated the sky above the festival's Mythical Frames stage. Each of the huge, playful frames was filled with an LED screen that showed nonstop footage during each performance.

Greenery and flowers framed the DJ booth at the main stage.

TomorrowWorld enacted a policy that required attendees be at least 21 years old.

Guests brought their own creative props to attract attention on social media.
