It’s amazing for me to witness the resurgence of Electronic Dance Music (EDM). For those of us old enough to remember Jungle nights at Lime Light or the iconic Bib Bop, this musical genre really hasn’t ever gone away. It slipped a bit in the mid-2000s in North America until DJs began better promoting themselves and in turn ended up becoming the show.
Make some noise at Digital Dreams 2014 Toronto
Canada has always had dance roots, creating many of the artists from the 90s and early 2000s and cultivating a rave culture that continues today. It only seems natural that we too should have an epic outdoor party. Enter the Digital Dreams Music Festival Toronto. Having grown over the last four years, it’s now officially the largest EDM festival in Canada and continues to prove our appetite for outdoor events can’t be quenched.
Each year the acts impress and with Armin and Steve headline Saturday and Zedd and Martin Garrix Sunday the festival will not disappoint. Of course there will be some new standouts this year as there are every year, and tons of after parties to continue the vibe throughout the weekend.
There is no party like a Digital Dreams party.
Returning to the Flats at Molson Canadian Amphitheatre, located inside Ontario Place, the venue promises to be a better experience this year than in years’ past, the cashless payment system integrated into your RFID wristband returns and this year, lockers have been added to the site to store your goods while you dance up a storm (hopefully not the weather kind).
Get yourself a new pair of sneakers, make sure you’ve got your muscle shirt handy and grab your friends. Tickets for the two day festival are still available via Ticketmaster and you can get all the information here. And if you’re really up to partying all weekend there’s Electric Island on July 1 if you still have the energy.
