EXIT and P+US to debut Starlight Festival at the Pyramids of Giza this October

Leading the lineup are Charlotte de Witte with an exclusive first-ever performance in Egypt, Michael Bibi bringing his sound to the pyramids for the very first time, and global melodic techno phenomenon Adriatique, returning to the iconic location after previously delivering a monumental show attended by nearly 10,000 people. The programme further brings together Vintage Culture, Pete Tong, WhoMadeWho and Enrico Sangiuliano, alongside dozens of regional and international artists.

“It is a great honour to be invited to bring the premium festival concept near one of the grandest monuments in human history. EXIT has always been known for combining world-class entertainment with a strong social mission, which in this case will be dedicated to celebrating Egypt’s extraordinary cultural heritage to a global audience. We are especially pleased to have Venture Lifestyle as our partner on this project, given their reputation for delivering exceptional events in the region.” – Dušan Kovačević (founder and CEO of EXIT Festival)

Set against the desert sands beside one of the world’s most significant symbols of ancient civilisation, Starlight will unite the global electronic music community within a setting shaped by thousands of years of history, while bringing together one of the strongest electronic lineups the region has seen to date.

As one of the key stops of EXIT’s expanding global tour, the festival’s main nights will take place on October 9 and 10 near the pyramids, while opening and closing events will unfold across selected locations throughout Cairo. Across more than five festival stages and zones, Starlight will also feature one of the world’s most advanced VR experiences, originally unveiled at Expo Dubai.

Starlight’s two main festival nights will be held on October 9 and 10 against the Great Pyramids of Giza, while the opening and closing events will unfold across selected locations throughout Cairo. Across more than five festival stages and zones, Starlight will also feature one of the world’s most advanced VR experiences, originally unveiled at Expo Dubai. As with other events held in the area, Starlight will not be staged directly at the pyramids, which will serve as a monumental backdrop from a specially designated location developed in accordance with the site’s historical importance and protected status.
