Tomorrowland lineup and timetable: when they drop

When does the Tomorrowland 2027 lineup come out?

The Tomorrowland 2027 lineup has not been released. As of 9 November 2026, neither the dates, the theme nor the artists for Tomorrowland Belgium 2027 have been announced, and Tomorrowland’s FAQ says more information about 2027 comes in December 2026.

This is how the lineup was released in the last three years, according to Tomorrowland’s press releases:

The pattern is clear: the first names arrive in January, just before the pre-sale, and the full lineup about a month before the festival. Other editions have their own lineups. Tomorrowland Brasil 2027 (30 April-2 May) released its lineup on 4 November 2026 with more than 100 artists, including Alok, Axwell, Steve Aoki, The Chainsmokers and Lost Frequencies. Brasil is also the final chapter of the Consciencia theme. The Tomorrowland Winter 2027 lineup has not been released.

The dates always come first. The 2025 dates were announced on 28 November 2024 and the 2026 dates on 4 December 2025, so the next step is expected in late November or early December 2026. The lineup comes later in the cycle. We track it on our Tomorrowland 2027 page, where dates and ticket sales go in as soon as they are official.

What did the 2026 timeline look like?

For 2026, the dates, pre-registration, theme and ticket sales all came in December and January, while the lineup and timetable were presented together. This was the order:

So Tomorrowland did not treat the timetable as a separate news item. It presented “the full line-up and timetable for Consciencia in Belgium” in one press release, covering 16 stages and more than 500 artists from over 40 nationalities.

What matters if you want to go: tickets sold out on 31 January 2026, six months before the festival. Assume you may have to decide before you know exactly who plays your weekend. How registration and the sales work step by step is on our Tomorrowland tickets page.

What is the difference between the lineup and the timetable?

The lineup tells you who plays, the timetable tells you when and on which stage. The lineup is enough to see whether your favourites are coming, but the timetable is what you plan your day around, because two artists you want to see can clash.

The timetable sits inside the festival’s opening hours. In 2026 they were:

Two things affect planning more than people expect. There is no same-day re-entry to the festival grounds, so if you leave to rest at your hotel you will not get back in. And Tomorrowland runs two weekends with their own timetables, so always check that you are looking at the right weekend. We compare the two in Weekend 1 or Weekend 2.

Which artists perform at Tomorrowland?

In 2026 more than 500 artists played on 16 stages, according to Tomorrowland’s lineup press release. The stages have their own names, and the ones listed on Tomorrowland’s official pages are:

• Mainstage
• Freedom Stage
• The Great Library
• Melodia
• The Rose Garden
• CORE
• Planaxis
• House of Fortune

The other stages are presented with the lineup each year. The full 2026 stage list, from Tomorrowland’s official timetable data, is in Tomorrowland 2026. What each stage tends to feel like is covered in our guide to Tomorrowland stages.

We do not list names for 2027. Sites that already publish a “Tomorrowland 2027 lineup” are guessing, because nothing has been announced.

How much does a DJ get paid for Tomorrowland?

There is no official figure. Tomorrowland does not publish fees, and artist contracts are not public. Amounts that circulate online are third-party estimates, often without a source. It is one of the most common questions people ask about the festival, but the honest answer is that it cannot be known from the outside.

How to plan your sets once the timetable is out

1. Check the weekend. Make sure the timetable is for your weekend before you start marking sets. Times are in Belgian time, which is the same as in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, so nothing needs converting when you share the plan with friends back home.
2. Mark the must-sees first. Start with the two or three sets you do not want to miss, then fill in what you would like to see.
3. Find clashes early. Decide in advance who wins if two favourites play at the same time, so you do not have to argue about it in the crowd.
4. Build in breaks. Food, water and toilet visits take time on a packed festival site, so plan gaps instead of running between stages all day.
5. Mind the last entry. If you stay outside DreamVille you need to be inside by 22:00 on Friday and Saturday and by 21:00 on Sunday, and there is no same-day re-entry.
6. Save the timetable offline. Take a screenshot or save it on your phone so you have it even if the network is slow. Mobile data in Belgium normally works just as it does at home on Scandinavian plans under EU and EEA roaming rules.
7. Missing a set is not the end. Tomorrowland streams parts of the festival live, and in 2026 the livestream reached 233 million views. How to watch is in our Tomorrowland livestream guide.

Where do you find the official lineup and timetable?

The official lineup and timetable are published by Tomorrowland itself, on belgium.tomorrowland.com, in the press room at press.belgium.tomorrowland.com and in the festival app. The community site Clashfinder usually posts a timetable per weekend too, but it is unofficial, so double-check changes against Tomorrowland.

After the festival the lineup page disappears: the 2026 page has been unpublished, so the press release is now the official record of what 2026 looked like.

What does this mean if you are planning for 2027?

Three things can be done now, without the lineup. Decide which weekend you want and how you will get there, because travel is booked long before the timetable appears. Watch for the dates in late November and early December 2026, since pre-registration has opened a few days after the dates were announced (5 December 2024 and 8 December 2025). And plan on getting a ticket for the festival as a whole, with the lineup as a bonus when it finally arrives.
