State of Trance Continues 25-Year Anniversary Celebration with Armin van Buuren & John Summit Face-to-Face Debut in Poland
Amsterdam (TBD) After a landmark opening in Rotterdam earlier this year, A State Of Trance continues its 25-year anniversary tour with a stop in Poland, landing at Warsaw’s Legia City Stadium on June 20, 2026. The event is set to bring together thousands of fans for a night that reflects both the legacy and ongoing evolution of trance.
At the centre of the celebration sits a first-time collaboration that signals exactly where that evolution is heading. Armin van Buuren will go face-to-face with John Summit in an exclusive F2F set, merging two distinct ends of the electronic spectrum. On one side, Armin’s melodic, uplifting trance framework; on the other, Summit’s high-impact house energy. The result is less about genre contrast and more about convergence, a reflection of how fluid today’s dancefloors have become.
Rather than leaning on nostalgia, the pairing positions ASOT 25 as forward-facing. It’s a moment designed to stretch the identity of trance beyond its traditional boundaries while maintaining the emotional core that built its global following in the first place.
The Warsaw edition adds another chapter to a brand that has long outgrown its origins as a radio show. Now broadcast across 80+ countries and reaching tens of millions of listeners weekly, ASOT has evolved into a global platform that connects scenes, artists, and audiences across continents.
