Charlotte de Witte, a formidable force in the world of techno, has just revealed that she will be heading back out on the road this summer for a total of six production tour dates across Europe. This second lap of de Witte’s broader Overdrive campaign on her KNTXT Label will see her stopping at important towns all over Europe including Barcelona and her hometown of Belgium. This campaign is part of de Witte’s wider Overdrive campaign, which was released earlier this year and was eagerly anticipated.
Charlotte de Witte Overdrive Tour Dates for Summer 2023
The Overdrive EP serves as the musical accompaniment to the breakneck speed at which de Witte has pushed herself throughout her rise to the top of the electronic music scene. It was released in 2017. Overdrive is a testament to the magic that occurs when we drive ourselves past our peak to unlock a new brave, fearless, turbocharged personality. The album has high-energy tracks that pulsate throughout the body and electrify the senses. The Overdrive Tour is going to be just as dynamic and high-energy as its eponymous EP, and it is going to start off in Spain with two massive gigs at Primavera Sound Barcelona and Primavera Sound Madrid.
This tour is the next phase of the Overdrive story, and very much embodies the same energy and vibe as my EP. It’s all about taking yourself on the farthest personal journey, beyond what you think your limits are, to a point of true liberation. I’m ready to create this energy and feeling – that of being on the edge and living life to the fullest – together with people front- and backstage. – Charlotte de Witte
De Witte will release a new apparel collection in honor of the Overdrive campaign in conjunction with the announcement of the Overdrive Tour. This collection will include hoodies, tees, and a special tour shirt specifically designed for the Overdrive Live Show. The summer is the best time to get your hands on one of these limited edition pieces. In addition to this collection, the KNTXT team has also launched a new Konnected t-shirt as well as a limited edition New York t-shirt to commemorate their historic conquest of New York City a month ago. Both of these shirts are part of their ever-expanding Essentials collection.

The Overdrive Campaign
Things got under way on May 17 in New York City, when de Witte presented a surprise show for thousands of fans on Orchard Street. This got the ball rolling. Her performance, which lasted for sixty minutes and caused the famous East Village street to be shut down, was an embodiment of the Overdrive EP. The excitement of the crowd and de Witte’s unique sound reverberated from building to building throughout the East Village.
The event took place outside of the KNTXT pop-up shop at Extra Butter, which featured one-of-a-kind products and clothing items based on the EP. The drop was the first time KNTXT goods was made available for purchase in the United States. It was completely sold out in less than 48 hours. After that, De Witte played two gigs at the Brooklyn Mirage, both of which were completely sold out.
Since the release of her single “High Street,” de Witte has not put out any new music. Overdrive is the first EP to come out on her KNTXT label since 2022.
