Belgian techno sensation Amelie Lens marked a memorable night at Tomorrowland 2026 by closing the Freedom Stage with a heartfelt performance dedicated to her debut album, ‘AURA’. This event on Sunday night held special significance for Lens, who candidly shared her experiences of performing while pregnant in an interview with Belgian public broadcaster VRT NWS. She emphasized the importance of not sidelining one’s dreams during pregnancy, framing this moment as one of the most empowering of her career.

As she prepares for the release of ‘AURA’, Lens is set to perform the album live on September 5 in her hometown of Antwerp, promising a full audio-visual experience against the stunning backdrop of KMSKA. Reflecting on her decade-long journey in music, Lens conveyed her excitement about finally bringing the album to life after years of personal and professional evolution. "I’ve been doing this for 10 years, so that’s quite late, but I never felt ready before and now everything just clicks,” she noted, capturing the anticipation around her new project.

After her earlier set at the Tomorrowland Atmosphere tent, Lens approached her Freedom Stage closing with enthusiasm. The stage's unique design, featuring rotating screens overhead, allowed her to push the boundaries of her performance art with the aid of her dedicated team of technicians. In a lighthearted response to rumors about a potential surprise guest appearance by fellow Belgian pop artist Angele, Lens clarified that despite their busy schedules, collaboration remains a cherished idea but unlikely.

Currently pregnant with her second daughter, Lens has opened up about the balance between motherhood and her role as a DJ. She highlighted her commitment to maintaining a healthy lifestyle during this period, underscoring the significance of sleep and well-being for both herself and her baby. Lens expressed joy in embracing her pregnancy while continuing to pursue her passion for music. "Performing while creating a little human being is the best feeling in the world," she commented, encapsulating the emotional depth of her current experience.

As Amelie Lens continues to break barriers in the electronic dance music scene, her story serves as an inspiring reminder for artists and fans alike that passion and dreams can thrive even during the most transformative life changes.
