He wears a scarf that covers his face from the nose down and pulls the hood of his hoodie over his face. This mask, together with Walker&#8217;s logo, has become his trademark. But unlike other artists such as Marshmello or Cro, who want to maintain their anonymity, Walker uses the mask as a symbol of solidarity with his fans, the &#8220;Walkers&#8221;.     <\/p>\n\n<p>He regularly shares pictures without a mask on social media, gives interviews without a mask and is fully recognizable in photo shoots. He also shows his enthusiasm for computer games, the hacker and Anonymous scene, which is reflected in his music videos and on his website. However, Walker emphasizes that anonymity is not the most important thing for him, but that he values the mask as part of his artist image and as a symbol of unity with his fans.  <\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group musiknerd-aff has-background is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-fe9cc265 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"background-color:#f0f0f0\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Alan Walker Tickets<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<!-- START ADVERTISER: eventim DE from awin.com -->\n\n<a rel=\"sponsored noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=11388&#038;awinaffid=1615850&#038;clickref=Alan+Walker&#038;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventim.de%2Fartist%2Falan-walker%2F\" target=\"_blank\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cshow.php?s=2174303&#038;v=11388&#038;q=338578&#038;r=1615850\" border=\"0\"\/>\n<\/a>\n\n<!-- END ADVERTISER: eventim DE from awin.com -->\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Get your tickets now for Alan Walker: plus special guests Sam Feldt, Toby Romeo, Justin Prince 2024<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fc4fd283 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size is-style-fill has-small-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=11388&amp;awinaffid=1615850&amp;clickref=Alan+Walker&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventim.de%2Fartist%2Falan-walker%2F\" style=\"border-radius:0px;background-color:#566876\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">buy tickets now*<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><em>* Affiliate link<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alan Walker is an internationally renowned and successful Norwegian music music producer and DJ.
