This seasoned institution now teams up with long-term affiliates BICEP for their most ambitious venture yet. Taking command of the newly opened DRUMSHEDS complex, the event will boast three immense spaces - X ROOM, Y ROOM, Z ROOMβpromising electrifying performances, including BICEP's CHROMA A/V DJ, alongside an incredible production and a stellar lineup featuring Daphni, Clark, SHERELLE, Marcel Dettmann, Kelly Lee Owens, Sicaria, Special Request, and more.
