# The Qontinent

The Qontinent was van 2008 tot 2024 een jaarlijks outdoor harddancefestival op het recreatiedomein Puyenbroeck in Wachtebeke, België. Het festival weet jaarlijks tiendduizenden hardstyle-, hardcore- en tekstyle-liefhebbers op de been te brengen en is daarmee het grootste festival in zijn genre in België. Sinds 2010 is er de avond voor de officiële start van het festival een preparty die doorgaat op een kleiner deel van het terrein.

## Edities
### 2008

Op 9 augustus 2008 werd de eerste editie georganiseerd door Q-dance. Het festival begon om 12:00 en eindigde om 00:00. Er was geen anthem. Reeds kort nadat de eerste editie was afgelopen kon men al talloze beelden van het festival bekijken op YouTube.

### 2009

In 2009 werd op 7 en 8 augustus de 2e editie gehouden met enkele veranderingen. Het festival werd niet langer alleen door Q-dance georganiseerd maar ook door Bass Events. In tegenstelling tot 2008 waren het deze keer 2 dagen en werd er een anthem gemaakt, namelijk A Lost World door Wildstylez. Er werd ook een album van 3 cd's gemixt door Wildstylez voor hardstyle, Tommyknocker hardcore en Q-ic tekstyle. Op het einde van dag 2 was er tijdens de Noisecontrollers, maar vooral tijdens het optreden van Headhunterz Vs Wildstylez vuurwerk afgestoken.
