Timmy Trumpet, blending classical music training, jazz roots, and EDM firepower, will perform at the INFINITY Lisbon closing party, promising a sensational finale for the SBC Summit.
The event will take place on Thursday, September 18, at the MEO Arena, which will serve as a super stage during the day, transforming into the "ultimate" party venue for the Australian DJ and producer, widely regarded as one of the most "explosive" live performers in the EDM scene.
Famous for his trumpet solos and "crowd hyping" energy, his headline performance will be open to VIP attendees as well as free operators and affiliate pass holders.
"Without the greatest performer in the EDM world, this greatest gaming event could not happen! Joking aside, no one can ignite the crowd like Timmy Trumpet," said Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and founder of SBC. "He is a rare artist who can perfectly blend high-energy Drop music with live instrumental performance, keeping the audience thrilled from start to finish."
Timmy Trumpet's musical journey began at the age of four when he picked up the trumpet. At thirteen, he was named Young Musician of the Year and received a full scholarship to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, studying under Anthony Heinrich of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.
Within two years, he became the lead soloist for the Australian All-Star Stage Band, touring Europe and performing at some of the world's top jazz festivals.
The press release states: "He naturally transitioned into the electronic music realm, blending live trumpet with high-energy electronic dance music (EDM), eventually releasing the hit single 'Freaks' in 2014, which has amassed over 1 billion streams across all platforms, contributing to a global total of over 5 billion streams."
Trumpet's debut at the Tomorrowland music festival in 2017 remains the most streamed performance in the festival's history. In 2024, he reached a new career high, ranking fifth on DJ Mag's Top 100 Singles chart. That same year, he headlined the main stage at the Tomorrowland music festivals in Belgium and Brazil, with his performance in Belgium being the most-watched of the year.
This DJ, who blends various musical styles, is known for his exhilarating energy, which has also led to collaborations with many electronic music giants. His works include hit songs with Steve Aoki, Armin van Buuren, Afrojack, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Hardwell, KSHMR, R3HAB, W&W, and ALOK, among others.
"We announced last month that Alok would be part of the INFINITY Lisbon lineup, and now confirming Timmy Trumpet means we will have two powerful DJs headlining the closing party. I believe our attendees will greatly appreciate this experience," Sojmark said.
This tradition began last September with SBC's flagship exhibition debut in Lisbon, featuring headliners Darude, Miss Monique, and Don Diablo. Earlier this year, the tradition continued at the Rio SBC Summit, with Afrojack and the Brazilian duo Dubdogz delivering a vibrant DJ performance. Next, this tradition will extend to the SBC Americas Summit, where Steve Aoki will headline the INFINITY Florida closing party in Fort Lauderdale.
"This is becoming a tradition that all SBC staff and our delegates greatly enjoy," Sojmark added. "Industry events are exciting in many ways, but they are also demanding. Ending these events with world-class performances creates a celebratory and memorable experience, which is what the SBC Summit is all about."
The SBC Summit will return to the Lisbon International Fair and MEO Arena from September 16 to 18. The summit will welcome 30,000 industry professionals from around the world, offering three days of in-depth educational content, exhibition space, and networking opportunities.
