Points show how well known and in demand an act is today in Belgium and the Netherlands, based on public figures such as listeners and hits. They say nothing about the quality of a show. The letter is the level by the festival's own scale. How the points work ›
Chances for 2027
Probability estimates remain estimates and are not an official announcement.
No rumours, no inside knowledge. Tap Why? for the reasons.
Voor deze naam hebben we nog niet alles kunnen bekijken: de concerten van de laatste twee jaar, de geplande tourdata and de Instagram-volgers ontbreken nog. De kansen and punten houden daar rekening mee, maar kunnen verschuiven zodra die cijfers binnen zijn.

De Tijdloze on StuBru
De Tijdloze is the all-time list of Studio Brussel, the Flemish rock station. Listeners vote for their favourite songs every year, and since 1987 StuBru has broadcast the top 100 at the end of December. Since 2019 the rest of the vote is known as well: 500 places in 2019, around 2,000 since 2021. A place above 100 did not make the broadcast. The figures come from tijdloze.rocks, an independent site that keeps every list since 1987. Click a column header to sort.
