Tomorrowland Winter to debut a brand new stage in 2026

Tomorrowland Winter 2026: The Return of the Orbyz Mainstage that never was.

It has been announced that the Orbyz Mainstage, which was engulfed in a catastrophic fire at Tomorrowland Belgium 2025 just 48 hours before its opening, is finally making its comeback. This year, the Orbyz stage will rise from the ashes and return to the spotlight in Alpe d’Huez, France.

Tomorrowland Winter will take place from March 21 to March 28, 2026, and festival organizers have revealed that Orbyz will officially debut as the event’s centrepiece. This vision will finally come to life 6,900 feet atop Chantebise. The debut of this stage is a perfect fit for the environment, as the structure is described as a conceptual “magical universe made of ice.”

The stage will replace the iconic AMARE eagle and feature a massive lion set against an icy landscape pierced by red crystals. The sketch above is a direct tribute to the original design intended for Tomorrowland Belgium 2025. Although it is a more intimate version of that legendary concept, this marks the first time the People of Tomorrow can truly step into the Orbyz universe. 

This year, Tomorrowland Winter will feature a lineup of superstar dance music artists, including headline performances from Charlotte de Witte, Afrojack, Steve Aoki, Lost Frequencies, Alesso, and more. Some other notable artists are Nina Kraviz, HI-LO, Dimitri Vegas, ARTBAT, Maala, and Laidback Luke.

Tickets are still available and can be purchased while visiting the official Tomorrowland Winter website. With over 150 artists performing and an expected 30,000 people in the audience, the magic of Tomorrowland continues to unite the global dance music community in one of the world’s most stunning locations.

Attendees can navigate 250 km of skiing terrain by day before heading to the dancefloor at night. With 84 lifts and a reputation for 300 days of sun per year, the festival transforms the French Alps into a stunning, sun-drenched playground for electronic music fans.

Kathryn Allyn

My favorite thing in the whole world is music and after hearing “One” by Swedish House Mafia for the first time in 2014, I was hooked on EDM. Dance music has been a large part of who I am and will always be searching for new ways to incorporate it in my life. The pure bliss that I feel from live shows is a feeling I never want to stop chasing (iykyk). Some of my favorite artists include Flume, Rüfüs Du Sol, Mindchatter, Gorgon City, Prospa 🙂
