Dominator Festival 2025 will be the biggest edition ever. With an enormous hardcore legacy of two decades, organizations Art of Dance and Q-dance are going all out for this huge celebration: they previously hinted that there would be no less than 10 stages and 200+ artists on the famous beach in Eersel. “DOMINATOOOORS! This year, we’re doing things differently.”

The size of 20 Years of Hardcore Domination is now starting to take shape, because Dominator has invited literally everyone for stage hostings and take-overs of the afterparty and the new final show on Friday. Brands like Thunderdome and Masters of Hardcore already have a rich history with the festival, the temp is being increased this time by Snakepit, BKJN and Frenchcore World Wide, Hong Kong Violence is inextricably linked to the E3 Strand and gabbers are stamping the dirt from under their Nikies with Nightmare, Multigroove and Oldschool Gangsters.

In total, no less than 12 of the most famous hardcore brands are participating in the biggest hardcore gathering in the world. A milestone that is being celebrated with everyone. “All the major brands in the scene will join us to celebrate our 20th anniversary.”
