On 27, 28, and 29 June 2025, Paradise City Festival returns to the gorgeous gardens of Castle Ribaucourt in Perk, Steenokkerzeel, for a special 10th-anniversary edition. With seven stages, last year’s edition welcomed a record-breaking crowd of over 43,000 visitors. The festival was also honoured as the world’s most sustainable music festival at the prestigious A Greener Festival Awards. Despite its growth, Paradise City stays true to its core values: top-tier music, cutting-edge stage designs, and a strong commitment to sustainability.
Ticket sales for its 10th-anniversary edition kicked off last month at an unprecedented pace – camping tickets sold out within 24 hours, followed closely by Saturday tickets in less than a week and 3-day tickets not long after. In short, it was a record-breaking start for Paradise City.

As expected, the Paradise City lineup showcases a dazzling array of talent across genres and styles. From the hypnotic grooves of Altın Gün, who reimagine Turkish folk with psychedelic rock and funk, to the boundary-pushing performance of Ben Böhmer, this year’s roster is a celebration of innovation, tradition and above all: diversity.
Fans of deeper sounds will be thrilled to find Chicago house icon Ron Trent on the lineup, alongside Satoshi Tomiie and Belgium’s own Ben Kamal & Lola Haro. But if high-energy beats are more your style, the highly anticipated B2B sets between unexpected pairings—like Helena Lauwaert & DJ Fuckoff and CJ Bolland & Nosedrip—are sure to deliver.
Meanwhile, those who appreciate a great live performance will be in for a treat, with electro legends Âme & Henrik Schwarz, B12’s Electro-Soma project, and the rising homegrown band TUKAN taking the stage.
Paradise City also shines a spotlight on rising stars and genre-blurring artists. MRD, Chlär, and Anetha bring glossy techno infused with experimental textures, while DJ Travella propels Tanzania’s singeli sound into hyperactive, high-speed territory. LOVEFOXY channels unapologetically Black and queer energy into her euphoric, ’90s house-inspired sets, while Avalon Emerson and OK Williams will showcase their mastery of mixing with record bags full of house, techno, and avant-garde club music. Closing out the weekend, The Blessed Madonna and HAAi join forces for a B2B set that promises to be a journey through emotive rave, eclectic techno, and groovy disco.
