12 Years ago in 1993 the 2nd chapter Thunderdome took place in the
Jaarbeurs located in Utrecht. More than 25.000 people were part of this
legenday event! The Prins Willem van Oranje Hal was filled to the notch
with tough guys and chicks that wanted to experience something else.
After this event Thunderdome dominated the hardcore scene! With events
that has taken place in the Martini halls in Groningen, FEC in
Leeuwarden, Expo in Hengelo, Thialf in Heerenveen, Rai in Amsterdam and
outside the Netherlands in Oberhausen (DE), Antwerpen (Be), Schwerin
(DE) and even in Australia, more than a million visitors experienced
the Thunderdome feeling. Up till now there is still no dance event that
got close to these numbers.
Next to the huge amount of visitors that has turned Thunderdome into a
real event concept also more than 3 million CDs were sold in the
Netherlands and the Thunderdome concept was also released in Germany
and Spain. More than 30 tours events were made around the globe and
even more surprising is the fact that more than 100 people in the
Netherlands are having a tattoo of the famous logo named ‘The Puppet’
a.k.a ‘The Wizard’, also known as “The Wizard”! We can continue with
all these facts about Thunderdome but it is clearly that Thunderdome
was, Thunderdome is and Thunderdome will always be!
On the 3rd of December one of the most beautiful areas of the Jaarbeurs
complex will be transformed into the hardcore happening of 2005! After
a spectacular Thunderdome event in 2004, where more than 20.000 ravers
experienced a sound that was hard, a atmosphere that was friendly and
DJs that were rocking the decks, Thunderdome will take you back to
those early days where it all began and how it used to be! Next to the
massive Prins Willem van Oranje hall there will be a second area just
like last year! Only today’s best artists as well as from those early
days will have the opportunity to get the sympathy of the criticism of
the hardcore minded people!
The Line up will be brought to you soon on thunderdome.com and the
presale will start on the 17th of september on ticketonline.nl and 24th
of september in all ticketbox presale points.
