The Legends Tour 2027

Orient Express La Dolce Vita 3 Nights · Rome to Venice £35,000 per couple

Fusing the golden age of European rail travel with the absolute vanguard of electronic music heritage, the 2027 Legends Tour presents an unprecedented, transcendent voyage across Italy.

This isn’t just a rail journey; it is an immersive, multi-layered odyssey curated exclusively for 12 selected couples to travel, dine, and celebrate alongside headline artists and industry titans. Over three uncompromised nights from February 14th to 17th, 2027, the inner circle of the DJ Awards takes over the ultra-luxury rails of the Orient Express La Dolce Vita, completely reimagined for the first time with dedicated restaurant and high-energy bar cars.

Your experience begins on Sunday, February 14th in Rome, checking into a premium five-star hotel suite before heading into the Grand Terminal. Here, inside the private Orient Express First Class Lounge, an intimate 120-person handover gala comes alive. Watch the outgoing Grand Jury Chair hand over the baton to our incoming Chair, followed by a historic, live B2B set with an open bar and premium canapés until 3 AM. On Monday, after a curated Michelin-starred lunch in the lounge, board the train alongside our headliners and the reigning 2026 International DJ of the Year winner. As we roll toward Siena, step off into a historic vineyard for an elite wine tasting and an intimate, estate-hosted live set entirely for the 60 guests on board. Re-embark for an evening where five-star culinary art meets a rolling nightclub: a gourmet four-course dinner backed by a live string quartet and jazz accompaniments, melting directly into an all-night train party driven by the International DJ of the Year. Awaken to breakfast in bed as the train glides into Venice, concluding your odyssey with a final night of pure luxury in a five-star Venetian suite.
