PANAJI: Sunburn, Asia’s premier electronic dance music (EDM) festival, is thrilled to announce the 18th edition of its globally
acclaimed annual extravaganza, Sunburn Goa 2024. Set to ignite the shores of South Goa between December 28th
and 30th, 2024, the three-day celebration promises an unparalleled fusion of music, fashion, food and culture.
Sunburn Goa 2024’s festival theme will explore the mystical and wondrous depths of the underwater world, merging
surreal elements with the vibrant essence of Sunburn’s famed energy. This year’s festival will unfold against the idyllic
location of South Goa, extending an enhanced experience in-keeping with Sunburn’s future vision for the festival.
Offering better infrastructure, a panorama of virgin nature and less congestion to make for the perfect getaway for
global music aficionados, this move also addresses previous pain points such as traffic, ingress and egress and parking.
Additionally, Sunburn is reintroducing a campsite at the festival, allowing attendees to camp on the festival grounds
and continue enjoying the infectious vibe amidst like-minded people.
Giving back to the community of its long-standing home in Goa and to instil environmental responsibility among the
youth, Sunburn goes green by introducing an eco-friendly campaign ‘Leave No Trace’. By adhering to the principles
of ‘Recycle, Reuse and Restore’, the campaign will encourage fans to celebrate the spirit of music in an eco-friendly
manner. This initiative underscores Sunburn’s commitment to environmental sustainability and aims to ensure that
the festival grounds are left as pristine as they were found. Recycling stations for plastic, glass and other materials will
be strategically placed throughout the venue during and after the festival. Thorough daily clean-ups will be conducted
from December 27th to 31st, 2024, to restore the space to its original state.
Karan Singh, CEO, Sunburn, commented, “We are excited to embark on the next chapter of the most loved festival at
a new venue that promises an unparalleled experience. Our vision is to elevate the bar each year and ensure we offer
a memorable experience each year, and we cannot wait for people to experience the magic of South Goa along with
us, this time! We look forward to welcoming fans from all over the world to live, love and dance again in the stunning
paradise of the grand scenic landscape of Goa. We are committed to creating the largest, most immersive and
mesmerising Sunburn festival experience yet. This year, our theme will bring to life unimaginable production and
aesthetics that will transform the festival into a surreal sea of sounds where the boundaries of reality are blurred by
the extravagance of music and the wonder of the waters.”
