Anyma’s groundbreaking show at the Pyramids of Giza drew global attention with massive attendance and extraordinary production. Here's everything you need to know about the event.
The Giza Plateau hosted a spectacular international event as Anyma, the world-renowned Italian-American DJ and electronic music producer, performed in front of over 15,000 attendees — including 11,000 international tourists and 4,000 Egyptians.
The concert was split into two main segments: “Quantum”, a deep dive into pure electronic sounds, and “The End of Genesis”, a futuristic audiovisual experience featuring visual illusions, lighting effects, and cutting-edge stage design across two platforms and the largest screen ever used in a concert in Egypt.
Fans traveled from around the globe to witness this one-of-a-kind performance, which Anyma described as a historic moment in his career.
Anyma, real name Matteo Milleri, is also the founder of Afterlife Records, a globally recognized music label. The concert in Egypt was part of his international tour, which includes notable stops such as Abu Dhabi and Coachella in the U.S.
Attendance was highly exclusive. Tickets were not openly available and required online registration, personal verification, and final approval. Once confirmed, attendees received a QR code for entry via email and their private booking portal.
All tickets sold out quickly. Entry was restricted to adults over 21, couples, or group attendees. A detailed guidebook was prepared for international guests, providing hotel recommendations, tourism highlights, and visa application guidance.
According to organizers, over 10,500 foreign tourists entered Egypt specifically for the event, alongside 600 local attendees and over 3,000 Egyptian workers involved in staging and managing the concert.
