By Wouter de Vink 27 March 2024

With less than 3 months to go until Defqon.1, it’s almost time to reveal all the biggest moments it has in store this year. During The Release, organisation Q-dance will unveil the full line-up, the world premiere of the new anthem provided by Sound Rush, who will provide The Opening Ceremony and The Spotlights and a number of big surprises.

Last year, Defqon.1 Weekend Festival welcomed 250,000 visitors from around 100 different countries, who can again enjoy the largest harder styles festival in the world for 4 days this year. The program is presented annually during The Release – where hosts Audiofreq, E-Life and Stephanie Magic take you into the world we know best.

According to Q-dance, all Warriors have a lot to look forward to for the upcoming edition. So during the 1.5 hour show tomorrow (Thursday) you will be fully informed about what will happen at Defqon.1 2024: this is what you can expect during The Release.

Program of Defqon.1 2024 – The Release

1. The full line-up
