Armin van Buuren’s ‘Pillars of Creation’: A Groundbreaking Desert Premiere
19 Sept 2024
Get ready for a fusion of music, nature, and technology. On October 24th, the one and only Armin van Buuren will debut his show, Pillars of Creation, on the golden sands of Ras Al Khaimah. Pushing the boundaries of sound, light and immersive storytelling, Pillars of Creation is set to be a completely revolutionary experience.
“It’s way more than a traditional concert — the audience will be the very heart of an ever-evolving cosmos as I fuse my signature trance music with multiple genres”, says Van Buuren. If you are somehow still wondering why this is a must-attend, here are five compelling reasons you can’t miss out on the show:
A true icon of music
Armin van Buuren has been at the forefront of the trance genre for over two decades, helping shape the sound and culture of electronic music. Recognised globally, he was even awarded the title of Officer in the Order of Orange-Nassau by Queen Beatrix in 2011 for his contributions to music. That is the regal touch!
Armin’s reach extends beyond music festivals. In 2013, he performed during the inauguration of King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, blending classical music with trance in a spectacular show that honoured his country’s new monarch.
Armin is famous for his long DJ sets, including a legendary 7.5-hour performance at UNTOLD Festival in Romania. Expect his endurance and energy to elevate Pillars of Creation to new heights as he guides audiences through a multi-dimensional musical journey.
A multi-sensory experience
The show offers a rare chance to see Armin unveil an entirely new artistic direction. His blend of trance music with other genres will take you on a journey that explores the birth, transformation, and infinite possibilities of sound and space.
The launch of Seven Wonders Ras Al Khaimah
Pillars of Creation kicks off Seven Wonders live event platform, where world-class performances are set in stunning natural locations. With only 1,000 tickets available, this intimate show is the gateway to an exciting new chapter in experiential entertainment.
