The music

ILLENIUM is an electronic producer and DJ known for albums including Ashes, Awake and Ascend. His music brings electronic sounds together with vocal songs; the festival offers several days in that musical world rather than a single stage appearance.

The resort format also changes the pace. Combine a concert with poolside relaxation and daytime activities before returning for the next part of the programme. Check the announced line-up and timetable to choose the performances that matter most to you.
