Amelie Lens announces historic 14,000-capacity show at Antwerp’s KMSKA Museum
Amelie Lens has announced a historic 14,000-capacity show in her home city of Antwerp. The Belgian techno star will play a 3-hour open-air set in front of the KMSKA on Saturday, September 5, 2026. The Royal Museum of Fine Arts has never hosted an event of this kind before. It is a first for both Amelie Lens and the city.
The show celebrates the release of her highly anticipated album ‘AURA’. The record drops the day before the event, on Friday, September 4, via her own EXHALE imprint.
Organised in collaboration with the City of Antwerp, the event runs from 2pm to 11pm on Leopold de Waelstraat. A full supporting lineup, handpicked by Amelie Lens, will be announced at a later date. The production team behind the show is Chaos in the City, the same crew responsible for WECANDANCE and On the Beach.
‘AURA’ consists of 11 brand new tracks, all produced by Lens herself. One notable collaboration is also on the record, with the guest artist set to be revealed in due course. The release is available digitally to download or stream. Plus, it arrives physically via a gatefold double 12″ blue/white vinyl pressing.
Ticket prices start at €39 and run up to €59 as the final tier. Presale waitlist sign-ups went live on Tuesday, May 26. The presale itself opens Thursday, May 28 at 11am CEST. Then the general sale kicks off on Tuesday, June 2 at 11am CEST.
Beyond the historic location, the booking marks the next major step in the Amelie Lens trajectory. The KMSKA setting nods to the cultural weight of the moment. Hosting one of techno’s biggest DJs at the foot of a Royal Museum of Fine Arts feels like a clear statement about where the genre sits in 2026.
Sign up for the presale via the official Chaos in the City site.
