Sunburn
The world’s biggest electronic music festival came to life at Vagator with thousands of dance music enthusiasts from across 50 countries getting enthralled by electronic dance music powerhouses. The 200 feet plus Main Stage, titled ‘Empire Of The Sun’ draws its inspiration from Indian ethnicity with the cranium of Ashoka taking centre stage on a chariot, heralding the 10th year anniversary of the dance music brand.
December 27, the very first day of this fiesta kicked off with thousands of people from all over the world coming together to celebrate the movement electronic dance music has created world over. While the food courts, adventure sports, flea market and exotics bars were packed with party goers, on-site camping- a first time concept in India turned out to be a special experience all of its own. Campers were positioned atop the hills and got a panoramic view of the hysteria of epic proportions that gripped 500,000sq/m.
Sam Feldt created magic on the Main Stage, playing an amazing collection of refreshing deep house songs and warm tropical house hits. The audience went delirious as he broke out on of his most popular singles, “Show Me Love”. Dyro, Nucleya, Paji, Paperqueen and Juliet Sikora set fire to Sunburn with their revolutionary beats.

Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike are a Belgian DJ duo composed of brothers Dimitri Thivaios and Michael Thivaios flew in to bring the house down for day one. They currently hold the #1 spot on DJ Magazine's annual Top 100 DJs poll. Playing their world famous hits like “Waves”, “Wakanda” and “Mammoth” and an electrifying high energy set of the ultimate dance music anthems.
