Hardwell is ready to turn back time and drop the beats that defined an era at Tomorrowland, where in 2024 the dance music legend will captivate fans with a nostalgic EDM throwback set.

In a move that has fans buzzing with anticipation, Hardwell has announced a special EDM throwback set during Tomorrowlands first weekend. The revelation comes after the Dutch DJ ran an Instagram poll, sparking a frenzy of excitement among his followers. It turns out the crowd was indeed feeling a trip down memory lane was much-needed.

Currently among the most prominent faces of the mainstage techno movement, Hardwell has been steering his sound toward a more techno-oriented direction in recent years. However, this throwback set promises a return to his roots, delivering the high-energy anthems that catapulted him to stardom, like Apollo and Spaceman.

Tomorrowland, the globally renowned EDM festival in Belgium, will host the performance during its first weekend on July 19th at the Freedom stage.

Camila Cabello was the surprise guest artist for Lana Del Rey headlining Coachella set on Friday night.

Del Rey temporarily left the stage after singing her song “Bartender” as Cabello launched into a surprise performance of her new single “I Luv It” from her forthcoming fourth studio album. Lana joined Cabello through some verses but mostly watched and danced from the balcony of her palace-like stage.

Cabello was backed by a crew of dancers who recreated the robotic choreography seen in the single’s matching music video which also features collaborator, Playboi Carti (Carti was not present on stage). Del Rey joined Cabello on the floor of the stage during Carti’s verse and placed her hands around Cabello’s waist as the two shared a playful spin.

“I luv it, I luv it, I luv it, I luv it,” Del Rey sang back to Cabello as the pop singer closed the song. She continued, “[Camila] is my girl, I have so much fun with her. I love this song and thank you so much angel, for coming and singing with me.”

Cabello responded, “This is an honor for me, you’re one of my favorite artists of all time. I love you so much.”

Del Rey’s week one Coachella performance welcomed recent collaborators Jack Antonoff and Jon Batiste, who again joined Del Rey again on Friday night. Both Antonoff and Batiste are also performing their own sets (Antonoff as the lead singer of the band Bleachers) at the festival. Billie Eilish also joined Del Rey who turned up for a surprise pair of duets of Eilish’s “Ocean Eyes,” and Del Rey’s “Video Games.”

The lights of Firefly Music Festival have flickered out again after AEG Presents officially canceled the event for a second consecutive year, the company announced on Thursday.

AEG shelved last years festival in order to take a year to recharge our lights. They said at the time, however, that Firefly would return to the Woodlands of Dover Motor Speedway in 2024.

Fireflys organizers this week said they hope to resurrect the festival when the timing is right but stopped short of teasing a return in 2025.

Firefly Music Festival will not return in 2024, Dennis Dennehy, AEGs Chief Communications Officer, told the Daily State News. We look forward to powering Fireflys lights back on someday when the timing is right, but until then, The Woodlands will continue to host new music events for years to come.

Firefly has remained a staple in the Northeasts live music scene since its inaugural festival in 2012. Founded by Red Frog Events, the event became so successful that it was ultimately acquired by AEG, the entertainment giant who runs Coachella, in 2018.

The last Firefly Music Festival in 2022 featured performances by Zedd, Porter Robinson, Gryffin and John Summit, among other electronic music artists.

Usher has been on a hot streak in the run-up to the tour announcement. He’s currently prepping the release of his ninth album “Coming Home” for Feb. 9, featuring guest appearances from Burna Boy, Latto, H.E.R., 21 Savage and more. And just two days later, he’ll take one of the biggest stages in the world as the performer at the Super Bowl Halftime show. He also recently announced a headlining stint alongside Janet Jackson and Backstreet Boys at the Lovers & Friends festival, taking place in Las Vegas on May 4.

“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before,” said Usher of the Halftime show. “Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I’ll see you real soon.”
