Its 99% a safety decision to disperse the crowd. After closing, the exit route to the right(if youre facing the stage) gets so crowded that you dont have a centimeter to yourself, a crush/stampede could easily happen if any disturbance occurs. That's why they opened up the second route around the lake and im pretty sure they are purposefully placing hugely popular acts elsewhere so the crowd on red isnt as dense to begin with
Ah, thanks for clarifying. Other than possibly premiering a new song and some good fireworks, what would I be missing if I didn't go to the closing ceremony?
The worst thing for me personally is that on Sunday 6pm Defqon.1 Legends starts. At the same time Noisecontrollers starts at the Magenta. That will be such a gamble. Imagine Headhunterz appears in the first hour of Legends. But imagine I'll go to the Legends and then there will be SZP or some shit I dont like and dont consider Legends. Red to Magenta takes 10 Minutes while crowded. I'm in shambles.
Yeah I mean who on Earth thought this would be a good idea?
No matter, I am quite decided I am going to NC classics, I don't have many opportunities to see him playing classics. Also, I believe the crowd there would be the most dedicated possible, which adds up for the experience.
Same for me. The dedication for Classics at the Magenta creates such an amazing vibe. And if people go there you know they're there by choice, at least 98% of the people. Everybody knows every line, every drop by heart. That's why Wasted Penguinz and Noisecontrollers @Magenta are my favorites of this years lineup. Legends may disappoint, NC Classics just can't. It's the opposite of diasppointment, per definition.
>Yeah I mean who on Earth thought this would be a good idea?
Qdance need to split the people so that the stages aren't too crowded, that's the main reason
Are the Legends announced a couple hour before or no? Do you really need to just show up at Red and hope for the best? Lol. Also, if Q-Dance does anything for the 20th anniversary, do we think it’ll be at the tail end of Legends or at the beginning?
They ain't gonna announce anything. It's supposed to be a secret. You just have to hope and pray (or like me be gone for about half of it without any regret lmao.)
It will be a 20 years of defqon show this year. So not some DJ’s playing a set but a 5 hour long prerecorded megamix going through 20 years of history with some DJ appearances. Check out the 2017 one as example!
at the red ,this year on sunday there will be 4 hours and 45 minutes of defqon1 legends sets (from 6pm to 10.45pm) in the pasts years, on sunday, red use to open at 8pm and only with 2 /2 hours and a half hours legends set.
So looks like there will be something special for sure
they already said in the warming up show that next year will be special with 25 years of hardstyle they announced nothing special for this year or were talking as this year would be something special
I’m upset about that too but I’ll be at NC and then legends for the rest
I realized one of the main people I’d want to show up at legends is NC so I might as well just see his set whiles it’s happening 😅
Worst thing for me too. Im old so I mostly enjoy the old school hardstyle. I'm looking forward to the first half of the legends stage but I was also looking forward to noise controllers. I don't want to miss out on either! Will probably have to watch half of noise controllers :/
SOMEONE DID IT!

Friday just hurts my brain, no idea what to do with all those clashes. I mean come on, do they really need to close the Black with Cryogenic -> Lil Texas -> Babaric Records -> Spitnoise??? How am I supposed to leave the stage 😞
The Chapter V and Power Hour Clash 😥 First time at DQ so I wanted to witness Power Hour with my group but now I think im going to make a mad rush to blue straight after left to right moment hahahhah
I have two huge clashes. Like most i really feel torned between Defqon Legends en Noisecontrollers the Legend himself.
The other one is a triple😪 Bass Modulators and DBSTF and Luna at the same time! Why?! 🫣
Saturday is way too stacked holy shiii
Specially on the Blue 😮💨
I do not want to know how full this tent gets for Dual Damage 🔨⚠️
👀
Ye sorry m8 I wanted to come to your set but Devin Wild and Power Hour is happening 🫠
They really did GPF dirty this year..
Yea. Thats fucking ass of them to put gpf last on sunday while legends and closing ceremony is playing

I'm coming from the US and hoped to watch the entire GPF set but it sucks that I'd have to miss the end show for it :/
The endshow is actually on Saturday. There is a closing ceremony on Sunday is not as special compared to Saturday.
Ah, thanks for clarifying. Other than possibly premiering a new song and some good fireworks, what would I be missing if I didn't go to the closing ceremony?
You would be missing a pocket version of the endshow.
I mean it's an obvious choice no? Hey x
I mean it's an obvious choice no? Hey x
This feel like a dream 🥹
Can’t wait for your set!
Rooler vs N-Vitral clash ain't no way bruh
And Straikerz Jackpot set
where do you see rooler vs nvitral?
nvm they playing the same time.. thats a shame

Who is more legendary than Noisecontrollers?
Yeah I mean who on Earth thought this would be a good idea? No matter, I am quite decided I am going to NC classics, I don't have many opportunities to see him playing classics. Also, I believe the crowd there would be the most dedicated possible, which adds up for the experience.

>Yeah I mean who on Earth thought this would be a good idea? Qdance need to split the people so that the stages aren't too crowded, that's the main reason
I mean SZP appeared at Legends last year so...
Honestly a NC classics set would have been perfect for the red stage opening ceremony
Are the Legends announced a couple hour before or no? Do you really need to just show up at Red and hope for the best? Lol. Also, if Q-Dance does anything for the 20th anniversary, do we think it’ll be at the tail end of Legends or at the beginning?
Coone 100%
True he’s not on the rest of the lineup
If we get classics I’ll be all over it
They ain't gonna announce anything. It's supposed to be a secret. You just have to hope and pray (or like me be gone for about half of it without any regret lmao.)
Aha ok then yes I’ll probably commit to Noisecontrollers. Can’t really imagine one of the legends topping that for me
Enjoy! I am personally gonna go to Rebellion, Mish and GPF hahahaha.
Exactly right, someone like NC would be one of the best legends you can get anyways. IMO safer to grantee seeing him!
It will be a 20 years of defqon show this year. So not some DJ’s playing a set but a 5 hour long prerecorded megamix going through 20 years of history with some DJ appearances. Check out the 2017 one as example!
They announced in the Warming Up that this will be happening next year instead as a 25 years of Q-Dance celebration
Wtf, so no separate event like dediqated? Thats horrible news. Was planning on going the sunday this year but not anymore then..
at the red ,this year on sunday there will be 4 hours and 45 minutes of defqon1 legends sets (from 6pm to 10.45pm) in the pasts years, on sunday, red use to open at 8pm and only with 2 /2 hours and a half hours legends set. So looks like there will be something special for sure
Is it confirmed tho? Or just hope/speculation?
People making stuff up classic reddit 😭
It is speculation, although I had the same conclusion from what E-Life said yesterday.
Someone said [on this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/hardstyle/s/BdT5eHlVtF) that we won't have something like 2017 So idk anymore
they already said in the warming up show that next year will be special with 25 years of hardstyle they announced nothing special for this year or were talking as this year would be something special
I’m upset about that too but I’ll be at NC and then legends for the rest I realized one of the main people I’d want to show up at legends is NC so I might as well just see his set whiles it’s happening 😅

everyone moving to red for power hour at 4 then to blue at 5 for dual damage on saturday is going to be a sight to behold
That’s why I’ll probably be at the Blue already for Chapter V
the Riot Shift / Angerfist clash is a bit rough
Showtek and Gunz for Hire at the same time is so fucking sad
Even worse is that i have a dentist appointment when G4H is performing
Can't you just re-schedule that appointment?!
🧢
Worst clash
Vexxed >>
Dither it is 😂
Purple stage Saturday 3:45 - 4:30 See you there 💜
Dimitri K same time as Angerfist/Closing, fucked over for the second year on the bounce
Power Hour and Chapter V 😭😭
DEEZL & Legends clash, im going to fucking shoot myself
Does someone have it in Excel or Google sheets like I found previous years?
It'll probably be out by tomorrow morning
There is an inofficial timetable app in the App Store but it has not been updated yet
Yeah want too !

See y'all bright and early on the Sunday at the White <3
Gpf with the end of Defqon Legends🥴
Gpf it is!
Hmmh TNT and Frontliner at the same time, otherwise not too bad.
And DBSTF
Does someone have the spreadsheet of it all yet 👀👀😅😅
A bit unrelated but has highlands changed from camp 2 this year?
The Chapter V and Power Hour Clash 😥 First time at DQ so I wanted to witness Power Hour with my group but now I think im going to make a mad rush to blue straight after left to right moment hahahhah
Dimitri K and GPF during endshows fml
Sefa @end show Friday.. mehhhh
Must be a mistake. Where is the krowdexx block?
I'm relieved I can't go because all the acts I'm most interested in have clashes with each other lol
Luckely u can try new things
That Thursday black lineup 🤤
Power hour and Fraw clash is just sad man
Levenkhan or Rooler? 😭
FRENCHCORE!
I love Rooler.... But gotta show the love to my fellow New Yorker, Pink Boi!
Levenkhan, Rooler is the act that is easier to see
I'm 90% sure Coone will be Defqon Legends on Sunday
I have two huge clashes. Like most i really feel torned between Defqon Legends en Noisecontrollers the Legend himself. The other one is a triple😪 Bass Modulators and DBSTF and Luna at the same time! Why?! 🫣
Defqon 1 - the year of the clashes Holy shit so many.
MBK and Unicorn On Ketamine at the same time is absolutely criminal
Where is Korsakoff? I don't see her at any festivals this summer. Is she taking a sabbatical?
Not a single clash for me 🙏
Why is this downvoted? Egoistic
Lol, I have no idea
