Second death at Tomorrowland festival

A 35-year-old man has died at the Tomorrowland music festival in Belgium, the Antwerp public prosecutor's office confirmed on Saturday. Last week, a 26-year-old employee passed away at the festival.

The 35-year-old visitor from Thailand was found unconscious on Friday night and died shortly afterwards in hospital. He was visiting a restricted area linked to a special ticketing formula.

The cause of his death is not yet known. The Antwerp public prosecutor has appointed an investigating judge. The festival organisation confirmed the tragic incident and expressed condolences to the next of kin.

Last week, a 26-year-old employee died at the Tomorrowland crew campsite during the festival's first weekend. Prosecutors suspect the death was drug-related, but an autopsy and toxicology report has yet to be completed.

Tomorrowland is an annual electronic dance music festival held in the Antwerp municipality of Boom. Organisers expected around 200,000 visitors on the final weekend of the festival.
