I done Tomorrowland last year for the first time although I have done a few Major International Festivals like Ultra Miami and EDC in Las Vegas.
Nearing 50 is no problem as the Music is very varied. I seen people in their 60s in the crowd. The age of the crowd is usually governed by the stages you go to. Last year, they had an Old Skool stage where you could go and see Darude and few other golden oldies. Trance is also a stage full of an older generation. At Mainstage, it is usually full of kids who are being told to "Put their hands in the air", "Jump, Jump, Jump" and being asked if they are ready to go crazy? which I avoid although the Mainstage is a magnificent bit of production.
Tickets will be your main issue and prices are high at the moment on ViaGoGo (Currently £650 per ticket) as people have missed out on the ticket sale and panic buy (However a Panic Sell happens the month before). For reference for next year, splash the cash and go via Global Journey. If you do want to go THIS year, my advice is to book your flights now. If you are getting a hotel, then this will also need to be booked now and you can get shuttles in everyday. It is true that packages are sold out on the Tomorrowland website HOWEVER
If you click on the below link then there is packages to buy from FestTicket which is a partner of Tomorrowland. They will arrange your ticket, accommodation (Tent or Hostel) along with posting out all the stuff to you.
https://www.festicket.com/festivals/...land/packages/
If you do the camping option then the party begins on Thursday at the Gathering which is a party at the Campsite with a few Local DJs and a Headliner. The Festival grounds open up on the Friday. I think I have covered all the basic information to get you started.
EDIT:
PS: They also have a Stage at the Airport on Monday so you can keep partying until your flight home... Yes, they really have thought of everything

Did my first Tomorrowland at 54 years old. Been back twice since.
Best advice - book early.
Too late for this year as probably all the face value tickets have gone and hotels and places to stay booked months ago.
Buses run out of local towns and if you don't want to drive, Antwerp is perhaps best placed.
Most people there are just like you and want to
Some are just bonkers, some are there to further their commercial (criminal) business.
At 50 you will be easily into the "eldest" demographic but the youth of Europe are very tolerant I've found.

That's the Ozzy national anthem? Won't it be great when we ditch the monarchy and can get some decent AC/DC or summit instead of that God Save the Queen crap?

Not one of George's better effort I have to say.
