After2049 will take place at the Marina Bay Sands’ SkyPark Observation Deck, offering an expected 2,000 attendees views of an evening Formula 1 session from the 57th floor, together with an open bar and a multi-sensory musical experience.
“Set against Singapore’s mesmerising skyline, AFTER 2049 promises more than just music—it’s a symphony of experiences where every element is crafted for an unforgettable night,” said Token2049 founder Raphael Strauch.
“Prepare for a landmark event that will redefine the electronic party scene in Singapore,” Strauch said, adding that the After2049’s “immersive setup” will “transform the venue into a portal of sound and light.”
After2049 has enlisted spatial audio pioneers Polygon Productions to provide an “immersive 360° audio experience” using its 3D sound technology, which employs a circular array of speaker stacks powered by L-Acoustics L-ISA technology—enabling the music to move “above, around and through the audience.”
Tickets for After2049 sold out in minutes in 2023, and demand is expected to surpass all previous records for the 2024 edition, the organizers said. The final limited release of AFTER 2049 tickets will be available through Resident Advisor on 12th September—and given the high demand experienced in previous releases, the remaining tickets are expected to sell out very quickly.
Billed as the “world’s largest crypto event,” Tokent2049 takes place from September 18-19 at Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands. An expected 20,000 attendees from over 150 countries are set to attend the 2024 edition, with speakers at this year’s event including Binance CEO Richard Teng, Solana founder Anatoly Yakovenko and whistleblower Edward Snowden.
