Amsterdam, 26 October 2023 - Two weeks after announcing their biggest event ever, Verknipt has done the unthinkable, selling out Verknipt ArenA just hours after going on sale. 35.000 pre-registration tickets were sold and 5.000 in the general sale, all without announcing a single name on their line-up.

The Amsterdam based events organization previously stated they would unveil the line-up at a later date, but that it would consist of artists that have grown with the Verknipt brand over the years.
