Nic Vans from Love Island announces 2026 DJ tour dates

With the Nic Vans tour officially underway, this new chapter cements his transition from reality TV standout to a rising DJ.

From villa heartthrob to festival-ready beat dropper, Nic Vans is proving that life after Love Island can be loud in the best way possible. Fresh off his breakout run on Love Island USA Season 7, Nic Vans, whose real name is Nicolas Vansteenberghe, has officially announced his 2026 DJ tour dates, marking a major milestone in his new DJ career.

He announced his tour with an Instagram post captioned: “Coming to a city near you (maybe).” Before stealing hearts on reality TV, Nic lived a very different fast-paced life as a registered nurse and model. Now he is fully stepping into music, trading scrubs and slow-motion villa walks for headphones and packed dance floors. This tour is the official launch of his next chapter as a DJ, and a commitment to building a long-term career in electronic music. His sound leans heavily into EDM and house music, with high-energy, confidence, and charisma that fans already recognize.

The 2026 tour will take Nic across the US and select international destinations, like the UK and Mexico, bringing his sets to nightclubs, beach venues, and party hotspots. Each stop is designed to introduce him not just as a familiar face from television, but as a serious artist behind the decks.

I’ve been writing, covering events, and doing interviews with Exron for nearly four years, but have been an EDM-lover for over a decade. The music community and industry has a special place in my heart and I love exploring the depths. EDC Las Vegas is my favorite festival and this year will be my sixth time attending. Some other recent festivals I’ve been are Ultra, Elements, Lost Lands, Electric Forest, and Arc. I’ve been getting more into experimental bass, but techno and house will always have my heart. <3
