Illuminate is back after successful debut: “For the real classics lovers”

By Wouter de Vink 24 April 2023

After great demand, the classics concept Illuminate returns to the place where it left a huge impression last year. The party that is organized for and by enthusiasts will once again host an excellent line-up in Nijmegen: “With your feet in the sand!”

Last year, there was ‘suddenly’ Illuminate: a hardstyle classics event held at special locations. “The combination of 25 degrees in this (at the time unknown within hardstyle) location was the recipe for a hugely successful event”, the organization looks back. Since then, the stories and videos from visitors are still going around and so it will be back in a few weeks with a brand-new edition.

The Strandbar Stek is an attractive location that fits perfectly with a classics atmosphere as we know it. Unfortunately, it will soon have to close its gates, but not before big names from the golden era have once again taken the stage – like Max Enforcer, Geck-O, Thera and Jones.

Craft beer by The Pitcher

Beer lovers, pay attention! Because after the success of his first specialty beer Serenity, headliner The Pitcher is unpacking with a new variant. In keeping with the theme of Together As One, the hardstyle DJ has been busy developing his new blonde brewing – which will be served during Illuminate. “Would you like to have a taste?”

Illuminate – The Classics 2.0 will be held on Sunday, May 7 from 14:00 to 22:00 at the Strandbar Stek in Nijmegen. Tickets are available through the event’s official website. Follow Illuminate on Instagram for more information or register via the Facebook event.
