Headline performers and DJs at Durban July After Party

Each year, G&G Productions incorporates the latest trends, features and infrastructure to enhance the after-party experience. Partygoers can expect three dance floors, with top headline DJs and performers on each. Whether you are on the supercharged main dance floor, the Enchanted Garden or in the VIP Deluxe area, you will experience something spectacular. The latest in lighting, stage design, sound, and over 50 pre-produced onscreen displays and projections are just the beginning of the event's highlights.

The world of dance and electronic music is always changing, with a natural preference for large music festivals developing worldwide. Trance is becoming more and more prominent as a featured sound for any big dance floor. This year these trends are taken into account. The format of the event has been altered to follow a festival approach, which means a long list of top DJs, a diversity of music styles playing on a variety of dance floors, unique décor elements and an all-round atmosphere of opulence and revelry.

An electronic edge

The DLI main hall will be labelled the Supercharged Dance Floor and will have a more commercial feel, with an electronic edge. Another highlight this year is the Enchanted Galaxy Dance Floor, which will feature some of the country's most talented trance DJs.

VIP Deluxe is a twofold offering: a cosy dance floor with top local artists and a relaxed indoor/outdoor chill environment. Patrons can lounge around low top tables, enjoying hubblies whilst watching the mystical enchanted floor in the background. All beers and ciders are free to VIP Deluxe ticketholders in this area.
