VWAB presents The Classics Cup brings the World Cup closer to home this summer. Over 50 of the biggest hardstyle players from all nations will gather on indoor and outdoor stages to compete in a world-class tournament.
VWAB Festival gets major upgrades
With the announcement of all the names, the group stage has officially begun, but VWAB is taking things a step further. This year, it’s not just about glory behind the decks. With the debut of the ferris wheel and extra entertainment, the entire festival site is getting a tactical upgrade befitting a true world final.
New VWAB Mainstage: featuring the biggest names
For this edition of the VWAB Festival, the mainstage is moving to the SEC grounds, marking a completely new chapter in the history of the Classics Arena. More space, a larger production, and an even bigger experience. D-Block & S-te-Fan, Wildstylez, and Noisecontrollers LIVE will be performing on the biggest classics podium. This new mainstage will be bigger in every way. “Welcome to the ultimate World Classics Championship!”
AREA 2: Including the revamped VWAB ‘The After’
Several star performers have been called up to the VWAB Fan Zone in the indoor mainstage of the Autotron. The teams are divided into B-Front & Titan, Digital Punk & Sub Sonik, and E-Force & Unresolved, along with the return of Bass Chaserz ‘Return of the Renegades’. And when the final whistle blows for the main tournament, the party isn’t over yet. The VWAB ‘The After’ is getting a major upgrade – more on that later.
AREA 3: Pure euphoria in Victory Village
Expect a stage where every melody feels like a goal in the 90th minute. Atmozfears, Demi Kanon, Frontliner, Psyko Punkz, Royal S, and Wasted Penguinz are just a few of the AREA 3 names called up to their national teams. The euphoria is in full swing in Victory Village.
AREA 4: A larger pitch for The Magic Show at a new location
AREA 4 is moving to a new location and will be significantly larger. More space for the fanatical supporters, more energy on the stage, and more room for the underground heroes. The full formations of Moridin LIVE and Clockartz ‘Chord V’, among others, will dominate the group stage here – hosted by the famous The Magic Show.
Exclusive VIP tickets: 500 gold season tickets
For true fans, VWAB is introducing a limited number of VIP tickets for the first time at the festival this year. Only 500 supporters will receive access to this exclusive upgrade.
