Dutch melodic dance sensation Helsloot is officially bringing his sound across the Atlantic for his first-ever North American headline tour, and for fans of melodic techno, disco-infused house, and emotionally driven club music, this is one of the season’s must-see runs.
Spanning eleven cities across the United States and Canada throughout May and June, the tour marks a major milestone for the artist born Thomas Helsloot, whose breakout collaboration “Because You Move Me” with Tinlicker quietly evolved into one of the defining melodic dance tracks of the last decade. The record has now surpassed more than 600 million Spotify streams and earned Platinum and Gold certifications across multiple countries, cementing Helsloot as one of the genre’s most compelling modern voices.
While many first discovered Helsloot through that iconic collaboration, the Dutch producer has steadily carved out his own identity over the past several years through releases on respected labels including Anjunadeep, Get Physical Music, and This Never Happened. His productions blend melodic techno and disco textures with subtle hip-hop influences, creating records that feel equally at home on festival stages and intimate late-night dancefloors.
The timing of the tour arrives during a breakout year for Helsloot. Fresh off supporting Tinlicker across Europe, the producer is preparing for debut performances at Awakenings and Tomorrowland later this summer, while continuing momentum from his acclaimed 14-track mix compilation Body Language Vol. 27 for Get Physical.
North American audiences will also get an exclusive preview of unreleased music during select tour stops ahead of a brand-new single arriving in June 2026. Most recently, Helsloot’s collaboration with Beacon, “I Was There,” also received a fresh rework from Booka Shade, further fueling anticipation around the producer’s evolving sound.
“I've always felt the love from across the ocean,” Helsloot shared. “Now I'm getting to play all my songs for the first time in all these incredible places in North America. I'm looking forward to meet and dance together with all these lovely people. I'm also bringing lots of new music which makes this tour even more special.”
