Tomorrowland’s CORE makes U.S. debut in Los Angeles with star-studded lineup and immersive stage experience

Belgium’s globally renowned festival concept lands at LA State Historic Park for the first time, as Tomorrowland and Insomniac bring a high-end audiovisual universe to the U.S. electronic scene.

 

Tomorrowland’s CORE makes its U.S. debut in Los Angeles, marking its first entry into the North American market. May 2nd and 3rd, CORE lands in Los Angeles for the very first time, as Tomorrowland joins forces once again with Insomniac to bring one of its most immersive and forward-thinking stage experiences stateside. All info here.

Following their standout collaboration on the UNITY shows in Las Vegas, the two live entertainment powerhouses now introduce American audiences to CORE a distinct creative universe that has grown into one of Tomorrowland’s most celebrated concepts. Known for its cutting-edge audiovisual design, curated underground sound, and deeply immersive atmosphere, CORE has built a global reputation with editions in Belgium, France, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and upcoming expansions including Melbourne (Australia) later this year.

Its arrival in Los Angeles marks a significant moment: for the first time, U.S. audiences will experience a concept that has, until now, remained exclusive to the Tomorrowland ecosystem.

Set in the iconic Los Angeles State Historic Park, just minutes from Downtown LA, the event transforms one of the city’s most unique open-air venues into a fully immersive electronic music environment, blending large-scale stage design, next-level production, and a carefully curated lineup that bridges global icons and underground tastemakers.

The debut LA edition features a forward-thinking lineup with several artists making their first appearance on the CORE stage, including Four Tet, Hannah Laing, Mija, Eric Prydz and Mall Grab, the latter currently gaining global traction with “Just The Way You Are.”

They are joined by Malugi, known for his high-energy, feel-good house sound, and LA-based Masha Mar, a key figure in the city’s underground scene and an advocate for inclusive, community-driven club culture. Global house icon Honey Dijon returns to CORE, alongside Benwal, following a standout performance at CORE Medellín earlier this year.

Further expanding its creative footprint, CORE also continues to grow as a label and platform. Just ahead of the event, Mija will release her new single “Dance Like You Mean It” with Florian Picasso on CORE Records, highlighting the project’s evolution beyond a stage into a broader cultural movement.

Belgium’s influence remains present, with artists including Oscar and the Wolf, Samm, Capoon, Emilija, and Kneiz reinforcing the international DNA at the heart of CORE.

With its U.S. debut, CORE brings a new layer to Los Angeles’ festival landscape, introducing a Tomorrowland-born concept that blends world-class production with a carefully curated underground sound, and setting a new benchmark for immersive electronic events in the States.
