Martin Garrix in Sofia this summer
The world’s number 1 DJ is coming for a legendary night on August 22nd
Sofia is in for a noisy and vibrant urban summer with Martin Garrix as the central figure of the August stage. On August 22, the world-famous artist comes to Arena Sofia (Stolichen Kolodrum) for a live show that combines the scale of world stages with the energy of fans in Bulgaria. Tickets go on sale on March 28, Friday, on the Ticket Station network.
Garrix comes after years of leading positions in the DJ Mag Top 100 – he is No. 1 in the world five times, performances at almost every major festival known, from Tomorrowland to Coachella and headline shows that gather tens of thousands of people. In August, the Bulgarian audience will also see the same spectacular production, which will soon go to London for a large-scale solo set in front of 25,000 people at Gunnersbury Park, and has already filled a 50,000-seat stadium in India for the artist’s sold-out show there.
His discography includes tracks from his breakthrough Animals (2013), which changed the way we think about modern dance music, to global hits like Scared to Be Lonely (with Dua Lipa), Ocean (with Khalid) and We Are The People (with Bono and The Edge of U2). And if that wasn’t enough, the production will showcase the stage design and visual effects that make him one of the most impressive live performers. In addition to all his DJ achievements, Garrix is also behind the STMPD RCRDS label, working with artists such as Lady Gaga, Sam Smith and Tame Impala, while his side projects such as AREA21 demonstrate his desire to constantly experiment and build on. He has also recently released new tracks like Angels For Each Other, Told You So and Gravity, which have once again clearly branded him as a total hitmaker.
Tickets for Martin Garrix will be available from March 28 on the ticketstation.bg website. Their regular price starts at 88 BGN, but for ticket holders for the AURA festival (June 20-22) a preferential price is provided – from 66 BGN as a gesture to the most dedicated audience of the electronic scene in our country. A special VIP zone has been set aside for the audience of Arena Sofia (Stolichen Kolodrum). Martin Garrix’s set is part of the series with which Fest Team continues to build and develop the electronic scene in Bulgaria, after nights with Armin Van Buuren, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, ARTBAT, Miss Monique, Fedde Le Grand, Garrix comes to fit logically in this direction – a world-class artist who marks the next big step in the calendar of the native scene. The event comes as a continuation of the energy surrounding the AURA festival – Fest Team’s new festival adventure, which will take place in Sofia between June 20 and 22.
