Watch Hardwell’s Nostalgic Throwback EDM Set at Tomorrowland 2024

Amid the dazzling spectacle of Tomorrowland's epic 20th anniversary opening weekend, Hardwell delivered a fittingly nostalgic trip down memory lane.

The origin of Hardwell's special throwback EDM set that captivated Tomorrowland's opening night on the Freedom stage was the product of a fan-fueled Instagram poll, whereby fans eagerly voted en masse for him to revisit the iconic big room and progressive anthems that defined the mid-2010s.

Today, the Revealed Recordings label head is renowned as a leading figure in the mainstage techno movement, but this particular throwback set allowed him to reconnect with his roots. The performance featured a carefully curated selection of classics that propelled legions of DJs and producers to superstardom.

The preparation for this performance was meticulous, with Hardwell investing significant effort into fusing together dozens of classic tracks. He revisited some of his own monumental hits, including "Apollo," "Jumper," "Countdown" and "Spaceman," while paying homage to fellow EDM titans by playing classics by Avicii, W&W, Showtek, Knife Party and Tomorrowland ambassadors Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike.
