The biggest on-stage EDM event in South-East Asia has sold out! All 25.000 tickets for ASOT600 in Kuala Lumpur have sold out. Malaysia is more than ready to celebrate, turning the globe into a dance floor!

Extra tickets for ASOT600 New York available!

There’s very little time left before The Expedition hits New York City’s Madison Square Garden, and anticipation is building. Tickets sold out within 1 hour of going on sale to the general public, and we regretted that so many fans were left without tickets due to overwhelming demand. It’s very important to us that as many devoted fans as possible get the opportunity to celebrate ASOT 600 together. And so, Madison Square Garden has worked hard to find ways to allow for additional seats in the venue, and slightly modified the stage set-up in order to make that happen.
