A new home for live music on the Belgian coast — here’s what to know.
Your go-to guide for upcoming events, tickets, access, and more.
We host a range of events — from electronic music takeovers to genre-crossing beach festivals. Each event stands on its own, curated for and with different artists, music styles, and audiences in mind — all at the same iconic seaside location.
Tickets for WECANDANCE can be found on the festival’s website here.
THE EVENT IS SOLD OUT. Pre-registration is closed. Thank you, this is wild — see you On The Beach.
The clock has stopped. The countdown is over. KI/KI & Marlon Hoffstadt take over Zeebrugge Beach on Sunday, 10.08.2025, for their first and only back-to-back set—a world premiere five-hour journey of transcendence, euphoria, and serious movement.
Think: peak-time energy meets sun-drenched trance nostalgia, as two of electronic music’s most electrifying forces collide in an extended format designed for one purpose only—total dancefloor lift-off. Support names to be revealed soon, curating the energy before and after the headline set.
One stage. One day. Two icons. Five Hours. Are you ready?

BY PLANE
For 5 Hours On The Beach with KI/KI B2B Marlon Hoffstadt on 10.08.2025, there will be just one stage — a focused, five-hour journey from two of electronic music’s most exciting artists. One day. One stage.
In contrast, WECANDANCE Festival (August 15, 16 & 17) features a full weekend lineup spread across 7 stages, covering a wide spectrum of music genres and experiences.
Every On The Beach event is different — always check the event’s official website for full details.
No, On The Beach is a new initiative that complements — not competes with — the WECANDANCE experience. On The Beach will host different kinds of events, focused on various audiences, music genres, and artists. Tickets for WECANDANCE do not grant access to all other events On The Beach, and vice versa.
Neither, and both — On The Beach hosts events. We don’t follow one format. Sometimes it’s a one-day concert, sometimes an all-day or even 3-day party with multiple acts. What stays the same: one beach, epic production, and memories made by the sea.
We aim to make every edition as accessible as possible, though being on the beach presents some natural challenges. Accessibility info (parking, facilities, etc.) will be shared on each event’s site. For specific questions, email: info@onthebeach.events
On The Beach is a collaborative production platform that partners with leading names in music and live experiences. Each event is co-produced with expert partners like Live Nation, WECANDANCE and others, depending on the concept.
We’re open to collaborations, partnerships, and new ideas that align with the spirit of On The Beach. If you’re interested in creating something special on Zeebrugge Beach — from a music event to a creative activation — reach out to us at info@onthebeach.events. Let’s talk.
Yes. On The Beach is just getting started. We’re building a long-term home for standout music moments on the Belgian coast — with more shows, new formats, and fresh names announcing in the future.
