(GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — New global research* from Velo highlights the growing need for shared experiences, as Velo launches “Echoes of Tomorrowland” – a global network of live events and synchronised livestreams that bring the magical experience of Tomorrowland to fans around the world. The campaign is backed by new research* that found that almost two in five adults (39%) say building meaningful connections has become harder with age. The physical dancefloor acts as a powerful space for connection, driven by its unique role in self-expression. This leads to meaningful connections, with 27% of 25-35 year olds agreeing that friendships made at live music or cultural events are more genuine than those formed in other social settings. With many fans unable to attend Tomorrowland in person, Velo brought the festival’s energy, culture, and community beyond.
