Tomorrowland festival will continue to take place in De Schorre in Boom, in the province of Antwerp, until 2034, organisers have confirmed.
"After negotiations with Tomorrowland, they have confirmed that they will stay in De Schorre until 2034," Boom's finance alderman, Kris Van Hoeck (CD&V) told De Standaard.
In addition, Boom has also agreed to lower the tax on Tomorrowland-related events from €3.50 to €3 per day per person.
"It means less income, but structurally we still receive more than €1 million every year, or around €18 million euros [in total up] until 2034 [from Tomorrowland]," added Van Hoeck.
