Tastes Of The World 12

SWEET DREAMS ARE MADE OF CHEESE SIGNAL 2108

Melted, grated, gooey or fresh; there’s one secret ingredient that just makes life tastier. Cheese! When one of the world’s top cheese refiners’ home base is right here in the French Alps, you’ll not want to ski past the chance of having a taste. Luckily, Bernard Mure-Ravaud is here to serve his knowledge to each of you. If you think you know mountain fondue, think again, because Bernard didn’t become the creme de la cheese for no reason. Let the expert show you how to really ‘say cheese’! Enjoy this fondue dinner while taking in the magnificent view.

WHERE WINTER TASTES LIKE SUMMER BRASA

Mmm, experience how the smell of charcoal and spices combined with the sound of sizzling food instantly transports you to some of your favourite summer memories. But Brasa will show you that a great BBQ meal fits just as well (if not better?) in winter setting. Settle on the outdoor deck, where you find the Belgian Beer Bar by Victoria, where you can taste some of Belgium’s finest, or head straight for the sizzling Ofyr barbecues instead. Not to worry, Brasa offers something tasty for everyone, as you can opt for a tender piece of meat, fish, veggie, and of course for the TML Burger.

A FIERY CHEF

SHOW-COOKING OVER OPEN BBQ FIRE

Brasa has fiery foods available for all, but it also features a reservation-only Chef’s Spectacle with delish cocktails. Toon De Bock, who spent the past few years serving delicious bites as artist caterer, now adds fire to the flames at the Brasa Experience.

From artists in summer to show-cooking during Winter. Tell us more!

“I hosted the artist catering at Tomorrowland Belgium 2019 and I was lucky enough to cook for them at the recordings for Tomorrowland Around the World as well. I was so excited when I was invited to cook here at Winter; it is so nice to see everyone again.”

Brasa equals BBQ. Are you a BBQ kinda person?

“I love working with open fire. Actually, a lot of what I do is centred around the Ofyr barbecues; quite literally, because if you work with open fire, people always gather around. Fire never fails to fascinate.”

What makes a good meal to you?

“Every chef will agree that a good meal requires great ingredients. But personally, I like to add some rock and roll. People tend to think of chefs as dull, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Cooking over open fire always wows the crowd.”

What are you most looking forward to?

“My ten days here will be all about food; I will be cooking at Brasa every single evening. But of course, I will try and sneak out for an hour here and there during the day to powder down the hill, –just don’t tell my business partner!”

NEVER MISS A MOMENT WITH ONE WORLD RADIO

The perfect way to start your day at Tomorrowland Winter is to make a coffee, grab a croissant and tune into your favourite radio station: One World Radio, the festival’s official broadcaster. Three years into its existence it has grown to be the go-to platform for fans of all types of electronic music with several studios around the world and listeners in over 130 countries. Whilst One World Radio has never stopped broadcasting, this week marks the first time since 2019 that you can enjoy Tomorrowland footage in real time. Here’s what to expect.

While people around the world are celebrating their regained freedom, One World Radio has also got something else to celebrate; the third birthday of the station. The station first started broadcasting back on 18 February 2019, just before Tomorrowland’s first Winter edition. With artists entering the studio non-stop and lots of other exciting stuff going on, Tomorrowland Winter 2019 felt like the moment One World Radio really came to life. And now that it is finally happening again, the studio will once again turn into the lively hub it was three years ago. As always, it all starts with The Gathering.

The Gathering is the ultimate pre party, an event with ever increasing levels of excitement, the one that takes you out of the real world into a world of magic for four days. And guess what? One World Radio is the only place online where you can follow everything that’s going on at the Gathering: from DJ sets to interviews and lots of interesting facts. Body aching from a day on the slopes or getting ready for the after-ski fun? Tune in to The Gatering live from your snow cabin.

By Wednesday Tomorrowland won’t be holding back any longer. It’s the day all stages are set to open: from the Mainstage in the town of Alpe d’Huez to the stages higher up the slopes such as Chrystal Garden by Ellesse, the CORE and a frosty little dance floor called Top of the Mountain. One World Radio will send out wintery vibes to anyone interested, whether that’s you in the ski-lift or your friends at home who sadly couldn’t make it this year. Wednesday to Friday, One World Radio will be live every day between 12h00 to 02h00 - that’s 14 hours of live radio every day! The station’s hosts Adam K, Justin and Camille will take you to the stages as if you were there yourself and will also talk to lots of artists in the studio, including of course many of Tomorrowland Winter’s headliners.

The easiest way to listen to One World Radio is via the super handy Tomorrowland app, so make sure to download it on your phone when you can. Otherwise, you can also tune in via tml.com and YouTube as well as various DAB and FM frequencies. On top of that, everything will be livestreamed so you can almost literally be in the studio yourself whenever you feel like it.

As always, One World Radio will broadcast music 24/7. Tune in for Daybreak Sessions by Greg Jake from 07h00 to 12h00. We promise you there isn’t a better way to recover from your hangover. Having a little afterparty in your hotel room in the wee hours or doing some early morning yoga instead? One World Radio is always on. Switch on the radio for the best electronic music and cosy winter vibes.

We know you don’t want to be thinking about this right now but all good things come to an end at some point. So what to do then when heading home after you’ve had the best week ever in the snow? You’ve guessed it: even when it’s all done, you can still count on One World Radio as that’s where you’ll hear the best moments of Tomorrowland Winter once again!
