A State of Trance comes to London on Saturday 14 November 2026 for its first-ever UK indoor festival, at Drumsheds — the giant former IKEA warehouse in Meridian Water, run by the team behind Printworks.

Three rooms: X, Y and Z
Drumsheds will be split into three rooms named after ASOT's iconic stage concept: the X stage as the main room, the Y stage as the second room and the more intimate Z stage. The building covers around 608,000 square feet, making it one of the largest indoor club spaces in Europe.
Why this matters for trance
A State of Trance began as a weekly radio show in 2001 and grew into a global festival brand, with its flagship event in the Netherlands and editions around the world. Bringing the full ASOT format indoors in London is a big moment for the UK trance scene, which has a long and passionate history. At DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs 2026, Armin van Buuren was again voted the world's No. 1 trance DJ.
