Dreamstate is set to return this November to the Queen Mary Waterfront, bringing a major update that is already drawing attention.

This year, The Void stage transforms into the Long Beach Amphitheater, introducing a new format that promises to elevate the festival experience.

With the historic ship as its backdrop, the change adds both scale and atmosphere to the event.

Currently, Dreamstate features five distinct stages, each dedicated to a different style of trance.

These include The Dream as the mainstage, alongside The Vision, The Sequence, The Void, and The BeatBox art car.

With the latest development, the fourth stage undergoes a full redesign.

It continues to focus on harder and darker sounds, while now opening the door to hard techno and hard trance within a larger, open-air setting.

The announcement of a 10,000-capacity amphitheater quickly sparked discussions among fans.

Some wondered if the festival might relocate once again.

In earlier years, the event took place at the NOS Event Center, where it built its identity from 2015 through 2022.

Many longtime attendees still associate that venue with the festival’s early era.

However, the confirmation of this new structure makes it clear that Dreamstate will remain at its current Long Beach home.

For attendees, the update signals a meaningful improvement.

The redesign directly addresses long-standing concerns, including the previously challenging entrance to The Void stage.

In parallel, the city plans a significant investment to support the project.
