Daft Sessions: 10 Years Dafter!

10 Years Dafter
The Anniversary Sessions

Sh*t, are we really that old?… Let’s celebrate!

Ten years ago, we started building our new music studios & hotel in the middle of the Ardennes. Some found it crazy, we simply called it… Daft!

On May 2nd, we celebrate this milestone the only way we know how: Live & Loud! Concerts (Triggerfinger, Ão, Naft), animations, DJ’s, behind-the-scenes visits of the studios and of course… our chef J.F.’s food!

Lineup

Lineup

NAFT reinvents the brass band and breaks the rules: who said brass had to be played sitting down? Driven by a house-techno surge, this group turns each stage into a rave. One thing’s for sure: you won’t be able to stand still.

Do they even need an introduction? The kings of Belgian rock make a masterful return with new singles. Expect a wall of sound, sharp suits and a charisma only outmatched by their energy.

The hidden gem blurring all the lines. Between organic textures and modern vibes, ÃO breathes that magic and depth we cherish in the studio and that will take its full shape on our stage.

About the birthday boy

Daft was alive as a studio long before we had these walls. But 10 years ago, founders Tine & Stijn started building something the world hadn’t really seen yet: an ambitious hybrid of Hotel & Music Studios in the midst of the Belgian Ardennes.

Since then, the Daft story has been written by thousands of artists and travelers, all looking for that same elusive thing: to feel inspired and completely at home in nature.

It’s been 10 years of crafting memories together. Let’s cheer to the next 10… and beyond!

Stay after the party’s over

Daft Hotel & Glamping

Why leave the concert when you can stay there?

Crash in one of our hotel rooms or embrace your wild side in a glamping tipi.

And let’s not forget the extras: dive into an indoor pool, enjoy a sauna, chill in a home cinema and wake up to a fresh breakfast. No stress, just vibes.

At Daft, the music doesn’t stop when the encore’s over…
