A STATE OF TRANCE ANNOUNCES U.S. FESTIVAL DEBUT WITH TWO-DAY TAKEOVER AT ACE*MISSION

Taking place on June 11+12, 2027, A State of Trance and Insomniac will host the brand’s first multi-day, multi-stage festival in North America. The weekend will also feature on-site afterparties and ASOT Hotel Experience.

Ticket pre-registration is open now at astateoftrance.com/losangeles. Pre-sale tickets will be available at 10am PT on Thursday, October 22, followed by general on sale at 11am PT.

The global dance music experience curator Insomniac today announced that Armin van Buuren’s A State of Trance (ASOT) will make its U.S. festival debut in Los Angeles on Friday, June 11 and Saturday, June 12, 2027. Taking over Ace*Mission, it will be the first multi-day ASOT festival in North America.

Three stages will cover the full range of trance music: classic, euphoric uplifting trance, high-energy psytrance, and the melodic techno now dominating dance floors worldwide. At the center is an immersive indoor warehouse stage that will also host the official afterparties, so Headliners can move straight from the main event into the late night without leaving the grounds.

The festival follows ASOT’s 2022 single-night stop at Banc of California Stadium during the “ASOT 1000” tour. The debut North America festival has been years in the making with Armin van Buuren developing a standalone U.S. festival format with Insomniac founder and CEO Pasquale Rotella.

Beyond the festival grounds, the ASOT Hotel Experience will give fans a dedicated hub for the weekend, featuring exclusive events that will keep the trance family together all weekend long.

To pre-register for presale access, visit astateoftrance.com/losangeles. Passes will be available for presale on Thursday, October 22 at 10am PT, followed by general on-sale at 11am PT.

FVTURE BANGKOK BRINGS KLANGKUENSTLER'S OUTWORLD TO SOUTHEAST ASIA

FVTURE brings Klangkuenstler's OUTWORLD to Southeast Asia for the first time, continuing its mission to connect global electronic music with Asia through internationally influential artists, touring concepts and world-class large-scale live experiences where music, sound, lighting, visuals and production come together as one complete show.

FVTURE will host Klangkuenstler's OUTWORLD on Saturday, 23rd January 2027, marking the touring concept's Southeast Asia debut with a six-hour all-night set. Built around the intersection of electronic music, architecture, light and sound, OUTWORLD has grown into one of the most talked-about touring formats in techno.

“Klangkuenstler is a brilliant DJ, and what I really like about him is that he has his own point of view not only on the music, but on the whole design of the experience - the visuals, the atmosphere and how the show should feel. That is exactly what we value at FVTURE. OUTWORLD represents the kind of globally recognised, large-scale experience we want to bring to Asia: not just a great artist, but a complete world built through music, sound, lighting, visuals and production. Our ambition is for FVTURE to be the platform in Asia where the world's most influential artists, touring concepts and event brands come to create something at the highest level.” — Victor Wang, founder of FVTURE

From the beginning, FVTURE has been built around international programming and world-class event production. In late 2025 and early 2026, the venue welcomed ARTBAT, CamelPhat, Kölsch, Marten Hørger, Plastik Funk, Danny Avila, Goodboys, SLVR, AXL STACE, Sam Collins, Prophecy, Arcando, ARHEUM and more. OUTWORLD is the next step in that journey - and part of a wider pipeline of globally recognised artists, touring concepts and large-scale event brands that FVTURE intends to bring to Bangkok and Asia, with each show designed as a complete experience across music, sound, lighting, visuals and production.

FVTURE sees itself as a major platform for global electronic music culture in Asia: a place where world-class performances, artists and internationally recognised event concepts come to Bangkok and reach audiences across the region. At the same time, FVTURE welcomes international audiences to Bangkok to experience Asia through music, nightlife and culture. The ambition is bigger than connecting two markets - it is about creating a home in Asia for global electronic culture, with FVTURE as the stage and Bangkok at the centre.
