Tomorrowland Winter 2025 has ended. A magical day full of highlights and special moments, here’s a quick look at what the People of Tomorrow got to enjoy throughout the opening day and night. Marking the fifth edition of Tomorrowland Winter, this week is a milestone anniversary with a mesmerizing mix of music, mountains, and adventure. For five years already, the breathtaking peaks of Alpe d’Huez have been welcoming countless People of Tomorrow from near and far, forming friendships that lasted far beyond this winter wonderland.

While the People of Tomorrow have arrived and got settled in their lodging in the beautiful French ski resort of Alpe d’Huez or one of the surrounding villages, festivalgoers could already enjoy the very first performances at different stages, including the Cage, CORE, Amare by Sephora, Frozen Lotus and The Reflection of Love. Some of today’s highlights were brought by Dutch duo Lucas & Steve, French artists Agoria and Alex Wann, Italian melodic techno duo Mathame, UK duo Goodboys, and many more.

The first performances at the ‘Paperworld’ Mainstage
​Tomorrowland Winter 2025 is inspired by the brand-new theme ‘Paperworld’, a magical parallel universe that connects the different Tomorrowland worlds. A metaverse of realms, Paperworld is the parchment patchwork of all Tomorrowland tales ever told, forming into words, sentences, and ultimately stories, which can each turn into a unique world of their own. The breathtaking indoor ‘Paperworld’ Mainstage travelled all the way to the beautiful mountains of Alpe d’Huez to take festivalgoers along a unique journey.

The People of Tomorrow got to witness the mesmerizing Mainstage in all its glory for the very first time. The first incredible performances at the ‘Paperworld’ Mainstage were brought by Agents Of Time, Axwell, Ewave b2b Galluxy, Indira Paganotto, Miss Monique and W&W.

​Following many years of tradition, the breathtaking ‘Paperworld’ stage was brought to life by Tomorrowland’s creative team and is 100% crafted in-house at Tomorrowland, from idea to realization and made with love and passion.

Hidden between The Great Library and all the countless stories ever told lies a realm untouched by time: a place where the unwritten takes shape, where ink breathes life into imagination. This is Paperworld, a boundless universe where words weave entire worlds, and stories rise like constellations into the sky. A place of endless creation, Paperworld serves as a bridge between the many realms of Tomorrowland, where past and future intertwine. This winter, the river of letters flows towards the heart of the Alps, where three of Tomorrowland’s most cherished worlds emerge once more: the aquatic mystery of Planaxis, the symphonic kingdom of Melodia, and the enchanted sanctuary of The Elixir of Life. Step boldly onto this path, and let the adventure begin.

Exclusive back-to-back sets
​Tomorrowland Winter 2025 brings a series of exclusive back-to-back sets to the stunning mountain landscape. Today’s line-up featured unforgettable performances, with the iconic French artists Jennifer Cardini and Pablo Bozzi delivering a dynamic set at CORE, while Belgian legend Dimitri Vegas joined forces with Steve Aoki at Amare by Sephora for a high-energy spectacle. Australian sister duo NERVO and Spanish DJ/producer B Jones also took over the Amare by Sephora stage with their signature sound, ensuring festivalgoers danced the day away under the alpine sky.

Remarkable performances in the heart of the mountains
​The magic of Tomorrowland Winter 2025 continued with a series of remarkable performances across its breathtaking stages. French Latin house master HUGEL brought infectious energy to the Cage, while Russian techno queen Nina Kraviz delivered a powerful closing set at CORE. Over at the Frozen Lotus stage, Brazilian sensation Vintage Culture and American piano house queen LP Giobbi captivated the crowd with their signature sounds. Meanwhile, Belgian rising star Samm and Dutch duo Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano lit up The Reflection of Love stage, making it a truly unforgettable day in the heart of the mountains.
