What to expect at ‘Pillars of Creation’

Armin van Buuren will push the boundaries of sound, light and immersive storytelling, to deliver a sensory experience set against a stunning desert backdrop which promises to transport the audience into another world.

The performance will completely reimagine Armin’s legendary work, to present a story about creation merging nature, music and cutting-edge technology.

Van Buuren said: “I created Pillars of Creation to be a completely revolutionary experience – its way more than a traditional concert – the audience will be the very heart of an ever-evolving cosmos as I fuse my signature trance music with multiple genres to take guests through a multi-dimensional journey, telling a story that blends the scientific wonder of space and time with human emotion and connection.”

Raki Phillips, Chief Executive Officer of Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority, said: “Ras Al Khaimah has proven itself as a leading destination for hosting culturally significant, high-calibre events, and the launch of Seven Wonders will be no exception.”

“The Nature Emirate boasts stunning outdoor venues from Al Wadi Desert to historical sites such as Al Jazeera Al Hamra – the last surviving seafaring town as well as UAE’s only remaining hilltop fort, Dhayah Fort.

“This extraordinary showcase of talent and creativity will no doubt give our audience the chance to experience Ras Al Khaimah in a completely new way.”
