Sydney's number-one party hype crew Astral People is set to expand, bringing its Summer Dance series mentality to these cooler months for the first time. The inaugural Winter Dance will take over UNSW Roundhouse for one day only on Saturday, June 22.
To drive the winter theme home, the multi-stage lineup features international artists from cold North American climates. Headlining are Detroit's lauded techno producer Omar S, Vancouver's house music guru Pender Street Steppers and, another Detroit import, techno pioneer K-HAND — this bad-ass business woman and multi-media artist has been given the official title of First Lady of Detroit by the city council.
There'll also be heaps homegrown talent on the docket, including DJ sets by Sydney's own Ben Fester, Lex Deluxe and Maia Bilyk, along with Melbourne's Roland Tings. This all out party starts at 3pm and runs late, so get ready for a long day of dancing.
Early bird tickets have already sold out, general release tickets are set at $60 and final release at $70. Astral People's Summer Dance series regularly sells out, so expect the same and snag yours now.
