Three-time European Best Major Festival winner EXIT is bringing its globally recognised festival experience to Egypt this October with the launch of Starlight Festival, a brand-new multi-day concept taking place from October 8th-11th near the Great Pyramids of Giza in partnership with Venture Lifestyle and its electronic music platform P+US.
Leading the lineup are Charlotte de Witte with an exclusive first-ever performance in Egypt, Michael Bibi bringing his sound to the pyramids for the very first time, and global melodic techno phenomenon Adriatique, returning to the iconic location after previously delivering a monumental show attended by nearly 10,000 people. The programme further brings together Vintage Culture, Pete Tong, WhoMadeWho and Enrico Sangiuliano, alongside dozens of regional and international artists.
Set against the desert sands beside one of the world’s most significant symbols of ancient civilisation, Starlight will unite the global electronic music community within a setting shaped by thousands of years of history, while bringing together one of the strongest electronic lineups the region has seen to date.
As one of the key stops of EXIT’s expanding global tour, the festival’s main nights will take place on October 9 and 10 near the pyramids, while opening and closing events will unfold across selected locations throughout Cairo. Across more than five festival stages and zones, Starlight will also feature one of the world’s most advanced VR experiences, originally unveiled at Expo Dubai.
Starlight’s two main festival nights will be held on October 9 and 10 against the Great Pyramids of Giza, while the opening and closing events will unfold across selected locations throughout Cairo. Across more than five festival stages and zones, Starlight will also feature one of the world’s most advanced VR experiences, originally unveiled at Expo Dubai. As with other events held in the area, Starlight will not be staged directly at the pyramids, which will serve as a monumental backdrop from a specially designated location developed in accordance with the site’s historical importance and protected status.
Tickets are available here.
