Children's afternoon becomes Lokerse Fissa!

Thu, 20 Jun 2024 11:50:00 +0200

This year, our annual children's afternoon will be transformed into a real party just for teenagers! With our Lokerse Fissa, we're bringing a party concept for our young visitors (no adults allowed) on Friday, August 9, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in our indoor venue Club Studio Brussel.

You can count on three top DJs with Discobar Joossens ft MC Spaghetti, DJ Michael Amani and DJ Pombak.
- 13.30 - 14.45 Discobar Joossens ft MC Spaghetti
- 14.45 - 16.00 Michael Amani
- 16.00 - 16.30 Pombak

Tickets for the Lokerse Fissa cost 10 euros and go on sale immediately at www.lokersefeesten.be. The Lokerse Fissa is exclusively for teens. Children can be dropped off at the door of Club Studio Brussel and picked up again by their parents. No alcohol will be served.

Discobar Joossens ft. MC Spaghetti kick off the party. Koen Crucke recently dropped a bomb on the media landscape when he renamed himself MC Spaghetti! Discobar Joossens will take him in tow in an unforgettable DJ set. Michaël Joossens himself began his career as a radio DJ at MNM, after which he did the Morning Show at NRJ and now hosts the evening show on Play-Nostalgia. Brother Laurence, in turn, has been active for years as a singer-songwriter and musician. Now the brothers want to share that passion for music with you during a steamy set. Expect loud sing-alongs and Samson and Gert classics for young and old!

DJ Michael Amani is also unstoppable, thanks in part to his many videos on TIKTOK, in which he goes viral with unique (techno) memes and bootlegs. By the way, Michael is not only popping as a DJ but also as a content creator. With some 75 million views to his name, he grew from a commercial all-round act to the phenomenon that he is today on social media. With passages at Tomorrowland, Ushuaïa Ibiza, Balaton Sound and Intents, among others, and hits like his 'Silence' re-make that spent 26 weeks at number one on Soundcloud, Amani is proving to be on his way to becoming one of the biggest names on the scene.

DJ Pombak closes and gained fame for his techno/hardcore remixes of well-known commercials and memes. His remix of the advertising spot of "Dovy kitchens" became a big hit - with more than 1.8 million streams on Spotify. Especially a lot of heavy beats, hardcore and techno can be heard in his sets. With his unique mix of meme techno and hardcore, he always creates an explosive atmosphere on the dance floor. His sets are a combination of humor and high energy, resulting in an unforgettable experience!

13.30 - 14.45 Discobar Joossens ft MC Spaghetti
14.45 - 16.00 Michael Amani
16.00 - 16.30 Pombak

Tickets for the Lokerse Fissa cost 10 euros and go on sale immediately at www.lokersefeesten.be.
