One of the articles :
Coming swiftly after the announcement that ID&T would be expanding its Tomorrowland empire to the U.S. with TomorrowWorld, the Dutch powerhouse has made a significant announcement. After much speculation, ID&T is officially becoming part of SFX Entertainment, the American company run by Robert F.X. Sillerman, who pledged to spend $1 billion on acquisitions within a year.
According to an official release, the Amsterdam-based ID&T is valued at $130 million, and Billboard reports that SFX has acquired 75-percent of ID&T’s entire global business at a price of approximately $97.5 million.
ID&T director Duncan Stutterheim had already struck an American joint venture with SFX earlier this year, foreshadowing this more comprehensive move. In 2012, ID&T aligned with SFX’s competitor Live Nation to bring the famed Sensation event to the New York market. ID&T will keep Amsterdam as its ‘creative hub’, with new offices set to open in South America and Asia.
As the press announcement at Miami’s Delano Hotel put it, the “creative heart of ID&T” responsible for the event and festival concepts will remain entirely in Dutch hands, remaining in Amsterdam under the name M-Design. “This next step will see us become part of a globally active company, enhancing our ability to roll out our creative concepts on a global level,” Stutterheim says. Alongside Tomorrowland, Q-dance and Sensation, three of its most globally-recognised brands, ID&T stages European institutions like Mysteryland, Welcome To The Future and ENERGY.
Sillerman has made no secret of the fact he’s a dance music outsider, but his spending spree has been honed-in on the booming EDM market. His first acquisitions, Disco Donnie Presents and Dayglow Productions, were just the beginning. The first months of 2013 saw Sillerman add Voodoo Experience and Beatport to the SFX portfolio, and now the ink has dried on the company’s biggest investment yet. |

I have TWO VIP Full Madness Comfort Passes + EasyTent w/ Dreamville for TWO persons for Tomorrowland 2013. I bought them for my girlfriend and I, but we have separated.
I can no longer go. My loss is your gain.
