Electronic dance music extravaganza headed for Tacoma Dome in 2022. No moshing, though
For two days in early February, the Tacoma Dome will transform into The Thunderdome — a sound and light EDM (electronic dance music) extravaganza produced by Canadian DJ Jeff Abel, better known as Excision.
Tickets for the Feb. 4-5 show are on sale now at the event website. A two-day pass is $125.30. The website says single-day tickets are also available.
Friday’s (Feb. 4) lineup includes Excision, 12th Planet, Riot Ten B2B Blunts & Blondes, Bear Grillz, YOOKiE B2B Calcium, Vampa and Jeanie.
Saturday’s (Feb. 5) lineup has Excision, Liquid Stranger, ATliens, Dion Timmer B2B Kompany, He$h B2B Bommer, Ray Volpe and Francis Derelle.
The Thunderdome last played the Tacoma Dome on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1, 2020. The tour was eventually sunk by the pandemic.
Now, it’s been resurrected with a new list of safety and pandemic restrictions.
Some of those ban moshing, crowd surfing or stage diving.
While lasers will be in heavy use during the show, personal lasers are prohibited.
Other prohibited items include hula hoops, pacifiers, markers, paint, chains, stickers, drones, dolls, e-cigarettes, weapons, balloons or chairs. The complete list is much longer. Read a full list at the Tacoma Dome’s website.
Glow sticks will be allowed but must be in original packaging.
Totems are allowed but they must be inflatable or constructed of foam and cannot be taller than 10 feet.
Recent additions to the state’s COVID-19 mandates require proof of full vaccination or proof of a negative COVID-19 FDA-approved molecular or antigen test taken within the past 72 hours before entry to the Tacoma Dome is allowed. Guests under 12 will not be required to show proof of a negative test.
