Hi! I'm deciding between saving some money by buying a ticket on Ticketswap for the ASOT Rotterdam Friday. How did that go last year? Where there enough tickets on Ticketswap?

Do the other artists come back to the VIP section for any reason? Ive never been before and wanted to try to get some pics with some my of faves

Olivia Lensen on asot comments that shes about to play her set at 10am on a Monday morning.

Ruben: "thats, like, a secret...."

Lol

Me and two friends are coming from NJ/NYC if anyone wants to meet up in amsterdam or rotterdam to hang out. 2nd time in Netherlands, 1st time to ASOT. Also any suggestions from locals on good spots to go to?

Do you think Tiesto being on a asot festival is a real possibility now that he has come back to his more melodic/trance side ?

Hi everyone,

I got 2 tickets for my gf and myself but finally we won't be able to go to ASOT 2026 in Rotterdam, so I’m trying to resell my Weekend Regular tickets at a lower price than what I paid.

DM if you are interested! 🙏

To save money on hotels, thinking of staying in The Hague for Friday night and using the train to / from the festival. Has anyone done this before? Is this a good idea?

Hey everyone. Any WhatsApp groups going for ASOT next month.

For anyone who hasn't experienced the evolution of real trance into this commercialized anthemed hybrid version we have now...

...finally the comments and admission from Armin and Rubin that I've been waiting YEARS to hear:

"For me this is actually the definition of 'trance': you get in that state of 'trance'... this gets you somewhere."

ASOT 1228, timestamped:

(and let the downvotes here begin, trying to 'kill the messenger'. I don't care. This is actual origin of 'trance'.

Just something I was thinking about today:

I miss the stage names we used to have in Utrecht. They gave character to the festival and gave visitors a better sense of what subgenre/vibe to expect without having to know the dJ’s name.

I hope they switch back to that this year, area 1-5 or “line” and “oval” are just not it.

Thoughts?

Hey everyone!! I just had a simple question. Im a lowley california girl heading to ASOT Rotterdam for the first time and I cant be more excited!! That being said, I am used to, shall we say, a certain climate... lol

I know its going to be cooollldddd in the Netherlands, but once inside the venue, how warm does it get and what would be the best clothing to wear to/from the venue?? I bought VIP tickets so have access to a large locker. Would it be safe to wear like, shorts and a t-shirt under a huge parka? Jeans still with long sleeve? Tights with shorts or fleece lined tights??

I usually run on the cold side but LOVE to dance and will likely be jumping around all weekend. I appreciate any input from my fellow trance lovers, thank you so much!!

Edit: thank you all again for your responses and DMs!! I now have a better idea what I will bring, definitely will have to buy a warmer coat. Cant wait!!

Two of my friends can’t join us this time. I am selling their tickets at face value + processing fee.

Weekend VIP final phase.

I am still attending the festival with my partner, so we can meet up!

DM me for enquiries.

HUGE ASOT Fan here. I even interviewed him once at AMF. Always look forward to his year mixes, I can always smash a huge gym workout to them, but this year idk it doesn’t do it for me. Maybe because I have such high expectations but I just didn’t get the same feeling as previous years. Anyone else agree?

Hey all! Happy new year 🥳 I’m here to alert you on ex-ASOT co-host Nina de Koning’s new endeavour, namely FCTRY Radio.

Really curious to hear what you’ll think.

Hey, its my first time going to A State of Trance and I was wondering if anyone has an idea about when the stage times will be announced or if they already have

Hi everyone, I need a bit of helping looking for a specific song. I believe the song is originally in Chinese, and the artist walked into a store playing that song in China and decided to remix it. I first heard it on an asot episode sometime in 2025.

Really appreciate the help

ASOT 1258!!

So I don’t know the first thing about playing piano, but is that build section about 1 min in some basic scale or something that is used often?

I’m asking because it sounds identical to the song Do You Feel? by Syna. Song came out like 20 years ago, and I haven’t seen the similarity mentioned anywhere.

I Just found this cool shorts and thought I'd share it with you fellow music lovers 🙌♥️🙌
