UNTOLD X wasn’t just a festival, it was a four-night celebration of music, unity, and pure magic in Cluj, Romania.

We just got back from UNTOLD X and honestly, it was unreal. Our team’s first time in Romania and it couldn’t get any better than this. Four straight nights in Cluj with over 470,000 people from all over the world, and every night felt bigger than the last.

Post Malone kicked off his European tour, and the whole stadium was packed singing along. The start of the show with ‘Texas Tea’ to the pyro and energy during ‘Rockstar’ and the closing with ‘Congratulations’ was something to remember for ages. The country rockstar persona definitely suits him.

Armin van Buuren gave us a three-hour marathon set that turned into this massive love letter to the crowd, he even walked down into the audience under a sea of phone lights, waving the Romanian flag while wearing the Romanian football team jersey. Goosebumps.

The Avicii tribute with Sandro Cavazza was as emotional as it could get. When he sang ‘Without You’, tens of thousands of people sang along and the whole place lit up. It felt like everyone was united in that moment.

The lineup was stacked. Garrix blew us away with his special set and the fireworks at the end of his set with ‘High on Life’ were unforgettable. Tiësto did a special extended set just for the 10th anniversary. Don Diablo premiered his new show concept for his upcoming tour. And then you had the special act, Salvatore Ganacci turning the stage into a living room and Alan Walker with his cinematic visuals and an energetic set.

Alok brought team of dancers and the whole set was probably the highlight of the festival. The visuals, the production, the music and the crowds energy were just unmatched.

It wasn’t just about the mainstage either. The Galaxy stage had heavyweights like Dom Dolla, ARTBAT, Adriatique, and Black Coffee, proper house and techno journeys that went late into the night. The festival had so many different vibes, from chill daytime sets in the park to full-on raves at night.

What really stood out though was how much UNTOLD leaned into the experience beyond the music. There were food stalls, games, fashion corners, even a special kids’ area and a sensory space for kids with neurodiverse needs. They even brought in cancer survivors from Youth Cancer Europe to meet artists, it really felt like a community, not just a festival.

This was the 10th edition, and they made it clear it was both a celebration of the last decade and a teaser for what’s next. They’re already talking about “UNTOLD One” in 2026 as the next chapter. If this anniversary was any indication, it’s going to be on another level.

Sadhguru at Tomorrowland 2025: Finding Peace Through Music, Movement, and Collective Stillness

When Sadhguru appeared at the Love Tomorrow Summit during Tomorrowland 2025, it wasn’t a disruption to the festival’s flow. It was a deepening of it. In a place known for towering stages, nonstop sound, and collective highs, his presence offered something unexpected yet entirely fitting. His reflections on peace, consciousness, and inner stillness landed not in silence, but in the middle of music and motion, and somehow, that made them feel even more real. This piece isn’t a recap of who played what stage. It’s about what Tomorrowland now stands for beyond music, how the summit reshaped the festival’s identity, and why Sadhguru’s message carried such powerful meaning during a weekend where even a mainstage fire couldn’t shake the unity of the crowd.

From Sound to Stillness: The Role of the Love Tomorrow Summit

Tomorrowland has always claimed to be more than a music festival. With slogans like Live Today, Love Tomorrow, Unite Forever, it has long positioned itself as a global gathering grounded in ideals of unity and hope. But ideals are easy to print on flags and screens. It’s through the Love Tomorrow Summit that those ideals have started to take on meaning. Held just before the festival weekend begins, the summit has evolved into a space where Tomorrowland explores what it means to stand for something, not just sonically, but socially and spiritually.

That’s what made Sadhguru’s appearance feel less like a surprise and more like a confirmation. The summit’s emphasis on environmental action, mental health, and cultural dialogue created a natural context for his voice. When he spoke about peace not being the absence of sound but the presence of clarity within it, it felt grounded in the very experience Tomorrowland was offering. He wasn’t telling people to step away from the music. He was offering a way to step into it more fully, with awareness, with stillness, with intention. In that moment, the summit wasn’t just a side event. It was the soul of the festival.

Peace in Motion: Sadhguru’s Message in the Heart of the Noise

What gave Sadhguru’s appearance real meaning wasn’t just the symbolism of placing a mystic at a music festival. It was the way he met the setting without needing to change it. During his session with Alok on the Love Tomorrow stage, he didn’t ask people to disconnect from what was around them. He asked them to become more aware of it. His words, calm and steady, settled over the crowd without needing volume. “You are not a victim of your thoughts, but the conductor of them,” he told the audience. A phrase he’s used before, but one that made sense in that exact moment.

Alok was beside him, listening closely. The crowd responded not with cheers, but with quiet. People raised their hands. Some closed their eyes. For a few minutes, there was no beat, no screen, no movement. Just stillness. It didn’t take anything away from the festival. If anything, it brought something in.

Peace, right then, wasn’t the opposite of sound. It was presence inside it.

What Tomorrowland Is Starting to Sound Like Now

That sense of presence didn’t exist in isolation. It was already in motion before a single set had begun. Days earlier, a fire broke out on the mainstage during final preparations. For a festival that builds entire worlds out of precision and spectacle, it could have shifted the energy before anyone arrived. But it didn’t. The rebuild was quiet. The focus remained. By the time people gathered for the summit, the mood felt steady.

In a way, that mirrored what Sadhguru was pointing to all along. Peace isn’t about silence. It’s about how we show up in noise. His presence at Tomorrowland wasn’t just a spiritual cameo. It offered a different way to experience the music, not separate from it, but through it. When stillness comes from within, even the loudest spaces don’t feel overwhelming.

Tomorrowland will always be about movement. But it’s beginning to hold space for awareness too. Not to dilute the experience, but to deepen it. That shift isn’t loud. It’s not flashy. It is there. You could hear it in the quiet before a drop, in the shared breath during a guided meditation, in the fact that thousands came for more than just the party. They came to feel present. They did.
