Surreal Park’s Soul Festival announces Carl Craig b2b Moodymann, KiNK (live), Mochakk, Len Faki, Guy J, Ratier, Sasha and more

Surreal Park, one of the world’s biggest nightlife destinations with a 135,000m² clubbing complex, will host three simultaneous stages curated by Defected, D EDGE and We Are Lost this April

Set inside one of the world’s largest clubbing spaces, Surreal Park based in Camboriú, Santa Catarina (Brazil), an open-air environment that lets audiences move between multiple stages, outdoor areas and distinct worlds in a single night.

On April 3rd Surreal Park returns with Soul Festival, the fourth edition of its annual in-house festival concept. Designed as a celebration of what truly moves a dancefloor – identity, heritage and connection – the event unfolds across three simultaneous stages, Ritual, Bells and Nomad, each curated by a globally recognised institution within club culture.

Ritual by Defected – House music, in its living form

Surreal Park’s main stage welcomes Defected, one of the most influential and enduring names in global House music.

A defining moment will be Carl Craig b2b Moodymann, a rare meeting of two foundational Detroit figures whose shared roots shaped the DNA of modern House and Techno. Also confirmed is KiNK (live), celebrated for unpredictable, fully organic performances, with appearances in Brazil notably rare. Mochakk makes his long-awaited Surreal Park debut, arriving as one of Brazil’s most internationally in-demand artists. Ratier, Surreal Park’s host and creative force, joins the lineup with nearly 30 years of career and an influential presence across House and Techno.

Bells by D EDGE – Techno at full pressure

Curated by São Paulo institution D EDGE, with over 25 years of continuous history shaping Brazil’s electronic scene, Bells delivers hypnotic, straight-to-the-point Techno.

Headlining is Len Faki, historic Berghain resident and one of the genre’s most respected figures, known for precise, high-energy sets. Also on the stage: Mila Journee, Aninha, plus one additional artist to be announced.

Nomad by We Are Lost – Progressive storytelling and long-form immersion

The festival’s third axis arrives via Nomad by We Are Lost, marking the first time the We Are Lost festival concept lands in Brazil. Led by Guy J, the brand is known for narrative flow, emotional tension and long-form immersion. This will be Guy J’s fourth appearance at Surreal Park, continuing a relationship defined by consistently packed floors.

He is joined by Sasha, a true icon of Progressive House and a central figure in the genre since the 1990s, alongside Sahar Z and Surreal Park resident Teclas.

A festival built for a venue of global scale

Soul Festival is designed specifically for the scale of Surreal Park’s 135,000m² complex, allowing audiences to move fluidly between House, Techno and Progressive, while experiencing the venue’s open-air atmosphere, wide outdoor spaces and multi-stage layout. The result is a night that feels both personal and massive: three curated rooms, one destination, and a crowd building its own journey across the site.

Soul Festival takes place on April 3rd at Surreal Park in Camboriú, Santa Catarina, Brazil. Early tickets are available through the official platforms via the Surreal Park website. Further information, set times and updates will be announced through Surreal Park’s official channels.

ANOTR, Mau P and Dennis Cruz Lead Gates of Agartha 2026 at Croatia’s Ancient Roman Quarry

Gates of Agartha has revealed the line-up for its 2026 Croatia edition, returning to the ancient Cave Romane quarry in Pula from June 4–7 with ANOTR, Mau P, Dennis Cruz, Hot Since 82, Traumer and Mita Gami leading the programme. The four-day event brings a curated selection of underground house, tech and melodic electronic artists to one of the region’s most visually distinctive open-air venues.

Headliners include Dutch duo ANOTR, performing a special extended sunrise set, alongside festival favourite Mau P, Spanish tech-house mainstay Dennis Cruz and UK producer Hot Since 82. Mita Gami joins with his blend of indie electronic and hypnotic grooves, while Avangart Tabldot and Saraga bring genre-fluid sets aligned with the festival’s underground direction.

Minimal specialist Traumer performs exclusively at the June 4 opening party at Pula Castle for Full Experience guests, setting the tone for the main programme across June 5–6 at Cave Romane. Support across the weekend comes from Ace Brothers, Zoe Done, Pablo Panda, Mene, Moukaide and Elena Mikac, completing a line-up rooted in underground house, minimal, deep tech and melodic sounds.

A defining feature of the Gates of Agartha is it’s otherworldy location. Set within a 2,000-year-old limestone quarry that once supplied stone for the Pula Arena Roman amphitheatre, Cave Romane is defined by towering 50-metre rock walls and powerful natural acoustics. Located in the coastal village of Vinkuran near Pula, the site sits within Istria’s historic landscape, a region often referred to locally as Terra Magica.

Founded by brothers Yalim and Yaaz Acar, creators of the Echoes From Agartha festival in Cappadocia, the project focuses on staging electronic music events in historically significant locations, transforming ancient landscapes into cinematic festival settings.

“Gates of Agartha was never meant to be just another festival,” say the founders. “Our vision has always been to create timeless moments where sound, history and community converge.”

The Croatia edition is proudly held in collaboration with BSH Events, a leading regional electronic music promoter known for high-impact productions across Croatia’s major venues and destinations and a loyal regional audience. Ticket prices range from €70–€180, with Full Experience packages including four nights’ accommodation at Monumenti, breakfast, fast-track entry and access to the opening and afterparties.

With its tightly curated scale, underground-led line-up and international audience, Gates of Agartha continues to position itself as a boutique electronic destination festival in Europe.

AMØK Mallorca Unveils Spring Season Featuring Adam Beyer’s Drumcode, Claptone’s Jackies & D&B Allstars

Images | Instagram | Tickets

Award-winning nightclub AMØK has announced its Spring 2026 season fresh from being named Best Nightclub in Mallorca 2025 at the Mallorca Electronic Music (MEM) Awards. As the year rolls on, the game-changing venue continues to strengthen its position at the forefront of the island’s club culture with a high-impact run of electronic showcases, international collaborations and significant venue upgrades.

AMØK has undergone major improvements ahead of the new season, including enhanced VIP areas, a fully renewed lighting system and upgraded D&B audiotechnik sound system that all underline its reputation for immersive, high-spec production.

The spring programme launches this weekend with the electronic opening party on 6 March headlined by GENNARO FKA as BLACKCHILD, and that sets the tone for a bold, carefully curated run of events. The calendar continues with house and tech royalty from the sharp end of the scene with Ale de Tuglie & Manu González (13 March), Los Suruba (20 March), Toman (2 April) and Oliver Koletzki (3 April) all playing. 

A key highlight arrives on 11 April when independent Barcelona based house label and global events brand Jackie’s arrives with deep house magician Claptone, followed the same night by the official Jackie’s Afterparty with Les Castizos. Late April sees Super Flu (25 April) and Lunnas (30 April), before D&B All Stars (3 May) and a major Drumcode takeover (8 – 10 May) featuring techno legends Adam Beyer, Joris Voorn, Pan Pot and more.

Beyond electronic programming, AMØK continues to diversify its cultural offering this spring. Reggaeton favourites BONITX and Tribu Latin Tech return as key local draws, while a special one-off concert from global reggaeton heavyweight J. Alvarez, who commands more than 15 million followers around the world, adds further crossover appeal.

Since opening in 2024, AMØK has rapidly built a reputation for cutting-edge design, dual indoor–outdoor dancefloors and forward-thinking programming. The club has already welcomed a fine array of stars to the island including James Hype, Ben Klock, Jamie Jones, Loco Dice and Denis Sulta (back in AMØK alongside Priku on June 20th), which have all positioned Mallorca as a rising power in the electronic music mediterranean scene.

With new technical upgrades, heavyweight brand partnerships and a carefully balanced programme of underground credibility and mainstream appeal, AMØK’s Spring 2026 season signals another significant step forward. 

There has never been a better time or place to experience Mallorca’s clubbing revolution than this year at AMØK. For more information and tickets head to; amokmallorca.com/en/

Inside, the design-led space is built for immersive listening and late-night sessions, boasting a high-fidelity sound system in an intimate space.

Black Coffee Announces Open-Air Show at Roman Amphitheatre In Croatia

TICKETS INSTAGRAM

Globally renowned Afro house pioneer Black Coffee is set to perform inside one of the world’s best-preserved Roman amphitheatres this summer when he headlines the first BSH Amphitheatre Pula edition which will take place at the Pula Arena in Croatia on 31st July 2026, with more names to follow.

Located on the Adriatic coast, the Pula Arena is widely regarded as one of Europe’s most striking historic landmarks. Originally constructed during the Roman Empire, the stone amphitheatre has hosted centuries of cultural gatherings and this event marks a rare convergence of contemporary electronic music with ancient heritage. Presented by event powerhouses BSH as part of the Adria Summer Festival, this show will transform the ancient, 2,000-year-old architectural monument and one of the most intact Roman amphitheatres still standing into an epic setting. 

Black Coffee is one of electronic music’s most influential figures. The Grammy Award-winning artist is celebrated for blending Afro-house, deep house and soulful electronic sounds in both his sets and productions, and has been hypnotising crowds at major festivals and iconic venues worldwide for more than a decade. 

The show follows BSH’s sold-out 2025 hosting of Black Coffee at Cave Romane, where the South African artist delivered one of the standout electronic performances of the summer. For 2026, the concept grows significantly by moving to the larger Arena for what is their most ambitious production to date.

Known for selecting visually and culturally significant locations, BSH has built an international reputation for staging electronic music events that go beyond the traditional club format, combining destination travel, historic settings and high-end production.

Tickets are available now via Entrio.

Gerd Janson, Arapu, Franco Cinelli, Cinthie, Doudou MD, Cap, Mateo Dufour and more have been added

Website | Instagram

Five days and five nights of continuous music in the untouched paradise of Shëngjin, Albania just got even better.

UNUM Festival continues to build momentum for its 2026 edition with the announcement of its highly anticipated Phase 2 lineup, further cementing its position as one of the most essential dates in the global electronic music calendar and building on its success at the DJ Awards, where it was crowned Best Global Festival 2025.

Newly announced artists include Arapu, Ageless, CAP, DJ Tennis, Franco Cinelli, Gerd Janson, Prospa, Doudou MD, and Mateo Dufour and Isaac Carter adding fresh depth and dynamic range to an already standout program. A select number of special guests will still be revealed in Phase 3 in the coming months, strengthening what is set to become UNUM’s most comprehensive and forward-thinking edition to date.

Following its DJ Awards win, UNUM enters its seventh year with a rapidly growing international community and a carefully balanced blend of underground pioneers, contemporary tastemakers, and emerging talent.

The Phase 2 additions span deep minima of l, house, electro, and forward-leaning club sounds. They join an already heavyweight lineup featuring Ricardo Villalobos, Ben Klock, Raresh, Craig Richards, Cameron Jack, East End Dubs, Richy Ahmed, Dyed Soundorom, and Krystal Klear, alongside revered selectors such as Margaret Dygas, Dan Ghenacia, Praslea, Priku, Francesco Del Garda, Maher Daniel, Sahar, and Tobi Neumann.



A Setting That Defines the Experience

Set between pine forest, mountain, and sea, UNUM’s three distinctive stages once again deliver its signature 24/7 journey:

The Pine Stage – the festival’s non-stop heartbeat, where music flows continuously beneath the forest canopy.

The Beach Stage – a sun-drenched meeting point of rhythm and coastline.

The Main Stage – anchoring the night with immersive, high-impact moments.

Among the most anticipated innovations for 2026 is a new panoramic afterparty concept overlooking the Adriatic. Hosted in a modern hilltop structure above Shëngjin and limited to just 500 guests, this intimate experience merges sunrise, architecture, and sound into what promises to be one of the festival’s most unforgettable moments.

30 Years of Kiesgrube: Europe’s Longest Running Open-Air Club Unveils Full 2026 Season

In 2026, Kiesgrube celebrates 30 years as one of Europe’s longest-standing open-air electronic music venues. Since 1996, it has operated as a weekly open-air event, a format that has allowed it to remain a constant presence on the European circuit. Three decades on, the venue has been reimagined and rebuilt, with a brand-new L-Acoustics sound system and expanded dance areas for 2026 season.

“Over the last three decades, Kiesgrube has remained independent, defined by its raw, unfiltered connection between artist and audience”, says founder Tom Preuss. “For the 30th anniversary, our intention is to protect this spirit while preparing it for the decades ahead. Not only for Düsseldorf, but for the wider European dance music community.”

There is hardly a global electronic music heavyweight who has not played Kiesgrube over the years, but the venue has never been about names alone. It’s about the feeling that has always brought like-minded people together from around the world to gather each Sunday. That is reflected in this special season to mark its 30-year anniversary from April through August, culminating in a landmark closing celebration.

The 30th anniversary season kicks off on Sunday April 19, with a Pre-Opening Open Air led by Maceo Plex. The official Opening on Friday May 01 sees global icon Peggy Gou headline alongside Dennis Cruz, while May continues at full intensity with and WhoMadeWho on May 14, followed by a heavyweight pairing of Pawsa on May 25. Early summer reaches another peak on June 14 as Black Coffee returns, joined by, before techno takes centre stage on June 21 with Amelie Lens. Late June delivers one of the most anticipated highlights of the season on June 28, as Jamie Jones and The Martinez Brothers lead an all-star showcase alongside Vintage Culture and Paco Osuna. July continues with a landmark appearance from Cocoon legend Sven Väth on July 12, and he shares the bill with Dixon B2B Jimi Jules. The early August Weekender brings Mahmut Orhan across both outdoor and indoor formats while mid-August welcomes Boris Brejcha and Andrea Oliva. The 30-year celebrations culminate on Sunday August 30 with a monumental Season Closing featuring Joseph Capriati b2b Mau P.

Located in western Germany and within reach of Cologne, Düsseldorf and the wider NRW region, it has become a cornerstone of European club culture and a place of musical immersion set within raw, natural surroundings. As part of the 30-year renovations, the venue is planning a brand new restaurant concept, a dedicated food area and upgraded digital infrastructure improvements designed to elevate the experience while keeping the club’s spirit intact. The sprawling site delivers Ibiza-inspired open-air energy with sand underfoot, green trees overhead and a dance floor to remove the usual barriers between headliner and crowd. The audio-visual setup is high-spec and high impact, and the closeness of DJ and dancers creates an intensity rarely found elsewhere.

Thirty years on, Kiesgrube remains what it has always been: a sanctuary for electronic music lovers under the sun and the stars.

GALACTICA launches Eden Ibiza residency in collaboration with Cocoricò

Ibiza welcomes a powerful new chapter this summer as GALACTICA launches its first official island residency at Eden in San Antonio. Running from May through September, the format, which runs in collaboration with Cocoricò, brings a bold and uncompromising vision that will carve out a fresh space for hard techno on the White Isle. 

Bringing its own distinct language, community and sharply defined sonic identity, GALACTICA puts sound at the core of the experience at the world renowned Eden. The concept will showcase  hard, hypnotic and high-intensity take on techno that is deeply rooted in the contemporary European underground.

Originally conceived with Cocoricò as the first travelling Italian hard techno festival, GALACTICA has rapidly grown into one of the scene’s most recognisable brands. Since its inception, GALACTICA has built its identity by bridging established names from the Italian and international electronic scenes with a new wave of emerging artists. The project’s cosmic theme has evolved naturally into a wider cultural platform and label, and has already landed at key clubbing institutions including Nexus in Paris, E1 in London and Fabrik in Madrid. 

Now, for the first time, the concept finds a dedicated Ibiza home. The Eden residency aims to fill a clear gap on the island and create a defined space for audiences seeking a more extreme and authentic sonic experience away from mainstream trends while positioning GALACTICA as a serious new player in Ibiza’s hard techno landscape.

Located in the heart of San Antonio Bay, Eden Ibiza has spent more than two decades as a cornerstone of the island’s nightlife. Opened in 1999 and renovated in 2013, the venue is known for its inclusive ethos, forward-thinking programming and powerful technical setup. Its renowned Incubus Gold by Void sound system, widely regarded as one of the island’s finest, sits at the centre of a multi-room venue designed for fully immersive dancefloor experiences.

Having hosted influential names ranging from Pete Tong and Judge Jules through to Disclosure, Eden continues to balance heritage credibility with future-facing energy. Just moments from San Antonio’s famous sunsets, the club provides a natural bridge between daytime atmosphere and late-night intensity.
At this iconic club, the GALACTICA residency has the perfect stage – a meeting point between underground vision and high-spec production that will be the focal point for hard techno throughout summer 2026.
