Less than four weeks after he ushered in 2011 at Armin Only, the world’s number #1 DJ is back in Australia. On Saturday 16 April, the A State Of Trance 500 world tour will be brought to a spectacular close at Sydney’s Acer Arena. It’s been a triumphant ride so far, with Armin van Buuren recruiting some of the leading lights in trance to help celebrate the radio show’s indelible legacy.

Armin has always been one to keep his fans in the loop and true to form he’s posted some early photos of the Arena undergoing its transformation. Over the course of ‘ASOT 500 Episode 5’, Armin will be broadcasting live from the on-site studio, allowing fans around the world to tune in to the festivities. Nothing is going to top the feeling of actually being there, though!

Check out the photos below of ASOT500 in Sydney coming together, and stay tuned for more to come.
