Live that festival-lover life

Tackling the stigma of earplugs

Tomorrowland is one of the biggest and best music festivals in the world. And at Loop, we love music – in fact, it’s how we first got started, when founders Maarten Bodewes and Dimitri O were left with tinnitus as a result of their love for nightclubs.

That means that we know first-hand the possible consequences of exposure to loud music. Going to festivals, nightclubs and concerts is great fun – but it can also leave you at risk of hearing damage if you’re not careful, with 6 out of 10 of the US population experiencing ringing ears after going out. And that’s sure to spoil any festival experience.

Earplugs can be seriously effective in reducing noise levels. But 54% of festival goers think that earplugs interfere with the music experience, 52% find them uncomfortable to wear, and 45% find them ugly or unsexy.

But we know none of those things need to be true – as long as you’ve got the right earplugs. Protecting your ears no longer means compromising on sound quality – or on your festival style. Whether you’re right up at the front, or soaking up the atmosphere from the bar, we’ve got your back – and your ears!

Question: What exactly happens when an earplug brand making major sound waves joins forces with the biggest festival in electronic music?​

Answer: A limited-edition, co-branded product that lets music lovers live that no-regrets life – through the magic of summer festivals and across the many tomorrows that follow.

Meet the Loop x Tomorrowland Experience 2 in black or purple, offering 17 dB (SNR) / 12 dB (NNR) of noise reduction. Traditional foam earplugs can muffle sound – not exactly what you want when you’re at a festival and want to lose yourself in the beat. 

But this special collaboration, like all of our Experience 2 earplugs, are made with a mesh filter that reduces the volume without impacting sound quality. That means you’ll get crystal clear sound, so you can lose yourself to the music without worrying about tinnitus or hearing damage.

Plus, with two new limited-edition designs, you can make your earwear part of your festival style. Say goodbye to basic foam earplugs – and say hello to beautifully designed earplugs that are made to be seen. Choose from black for a sleek, sophisticated look, or dreamy purple for that bold festival style.

Live that front-row life

Our philosophy? Life is for living. That means we love going out, experiencing live music, dancing the night away and attending festivals – but none of this should come with ringing ears.

If you love living that front-row life, earplugs can enhance your festival experience. Not only do they help to protect your ears from exposure to loud noise levels, but they’re also the ultimate festival accessory. 

Loop x Tomorrowland Experience 2 in black or purple: it’s where style, comfort and hearing protection come together. So if you’re heading to Tomorrowland this year, wear yours and share your experiences with us online!

What are the benefits of Loop x Tomorrowland Experience 2?

Some of life’s best moments can also be the loudest. But festivals don’t have to be uncomfortable or end in ringing ears. ​These earplugs reduce noise levels by up to 17 decibels (SNR) and 12 dB (NRR) – all while offering crisp, clear sound quality. They’re designed to stay put, no matter how much dancing you do, and with a choice of two beautiful limited-edition colors, they look great too.

What are the key differences between Loop x Tomorrowland Experience v1 and v2?

We’ve listened to customer feedback when designing our new and improved Loop Experience 2. They’re more comfortable than ever before, thanks to a change in the nozzle diameter for less pressure in the ear. We’ve also adjusted the acoustic channel, providing flat attenuation for even better sound quality – and they’re designed to fit a wider range of ears, so they’re sure to stay in place all night long.
