Hey stompers, don’t stash those stomping boots quite yet! Renowned trance party organisers Vortex Trance Adventures are preparing to give winter the finger with Phoenix Festival of Fire. Set to touch down at the Circle of Dreams in Riviersonderend, the June trance jol will heat up the (rain-sheltered) dance floor from Friday, 23 to Sunday, 25 June 2017. Doors open on Friday, 23 June 2017 from 12pm, so stompers can get set up for this party!
In Greek mythology, the phoenix is a bird with the ability to resurrect itself. It’s believed that at the end of its life, this legendary creature bursts into a blaze of fire and then rises from the proverbial ashes.
Thus; in the spirit of rebirth, regeneration and renewed vigor, the lovely people at Vortex have put forth a jol to celebrate the winter solstice (21 June) and, much like the phoenix, stompers are set to emerge from hibernation to make merry at this trance fiesta.
Celebrating all aspects of fire, attendees are encouraged to participate and bring any form of performance art: from sparkling hoola hoops, inferno jugglers, flame throwers, poi spinners and more!
Even though the event will be held in winter – and we all know that the chilly season in the Western Cape is wet – the trance party’s flames will not be extinguished by a little downpour. In fact, the dance floor will be fully waterproof with a canopy to keep the rain at bay.
What’s more, the camping area, which will flank the dance arena, comes complete with massive bonfires to ward off the chills as well as free access to hot showers and clean ablutions.
