On June 27, 28, and 29, 2025, Paradise City Festival 2025 returns to the idyllic waterside gardens of Castle Ribaucourt in Perk for a unique 10th-anniversary edition. With seven stages, last year’s edition welcomed a record-breaking crowd of over 43,000 visitors. The organization is clearly on to something, because camping tickets sold out within 24 hours, followed closely by Saturday tickets in less than a week and 3-day tickets not long after. So, despite its growing popularity, Paradise City stays true to its core values: top-tier music, cutting-edge stage designs, and a strong commitment to sustainability.

What immediately stands out is the strong focus on live performances. Since last year, Paradise City has aimed to offer more than just DJ sets, increasingly programming live acts. Also, many slots are reserved for legendary veterans from the international dance scene in this edition.
For its tenth anniversary, Paradise City honours the pioneers of electronic music while also looking ahead, giving a platform to exciting new talent. In other words, this will be a vibrant meeting of generations packed with energy and creativity.
Among the latest additions to the lineup is Bulgarian mastermind KiNK, returning to the festival’s biggest stage with his signature unpredictable, real-time live electronic performance. Flying in from Venezuela, DJ Babatr—a key force behind Latin club music’s global rise—will set the Orbit Stage on fire with his high-impact rhythms, a defining sound of South America’s underground scene. Meanwhile, Kikelomo, best known for her bass-heavy DJ sets, will take a different route, performing her A Song For You live project at the Concert Hall. Joining her on that stage is none other than Kate Ryan, the Eurodance icon whose unmistakable sound dominated the 90s and 00s, now bringing a nostalgia-filled live show to Paradise City.
For those who love their beats fast and loud, rising Belgian talents Fenrick and Alycia Bezgo will deliver forward-thinking fusions of UK garage, trance, and techno. They join a stellar lineup of boundary-pushing artists, including Elkka, Cashu, Margaret Dygas, Sara Dziri, Nedda Sou, NAFT, nthng, Kyle Toole, and many more.
With such a rich tapestry of sounds, Paradise City Festival 2025 promises to be an unforgettable celebration of music, community, and creativity.
