Everything you can expect from Imagine Dragons

Imagine Dragons

Imagine Dragons formed in Las Vegas in 2008. The trio rapidly took over the world with their explosive mix of rock, pop and electronic music. Think of hits such as Radioactive, Believer, Demons and Thunder. Meanwhile, a few years have passed, but their energy has not diminished. They’re back with their latest albumLOOM - full of fresh energy and the signature sound their fans can’t get enough of.  The band knows exactly how to get a stadium like the Johan Cruijff ArenA moving; powerful drums, solid guitars and a load of energy that pops into the crowd from the stage. So get ready, because these Dragons are going to spit fire.

Support Act: Declan McKenna

Opening the night is British singer-songwriter Declan McKenna. He broke through at the age of just 16 with his debut single Brazil, and has since become a well-known name within indie pop. With sharp lyrics, strong guitar riffs, and a unique sound, Declan brings something special to the stage. His songs often touch on socially conscious themes, but always with a light, catchy twist. An opening that sets the tone; through music and message.
