Belgium's Tomorrowland electronic music festival was set to begin on Friday with an alternative set-up for the main stage after the original burnt down in a huge fire earlier this week. Europe's largest electronic music festival was scheduled to open its gates at 2 pm (1200 GMT),

The main stage at the massively popular EDM festival Tomorrowland burned to the ground, but the festival will continue this weekend, organizers said.

The main stage at Tomorrowland, an electronic dance music festival in Boom, Belgium, has been destroyed in a major fire. It became rapidly engulfed in flames on Wednesday, July 16, as seen in footage shared by Belgian news station VRT NWS.
