Since then it has gone on to throw weekly parties hosting DJs such as Sven Väth, Laurent Garnier, Felix Da Housecat, Luciano, Maya Jane Coles and more. In 2010, Café d’Anvers confirmed that they would be hosting party concepts CircoLoco and Cocoon Recordings exclusively for Belgium, plus a branded stage at Tomorrowland and Extrema Outdoor Belgium[6]
