The electronic dance music (EDM) festival, Sunburn Goa, is set to take place in a new location for its upcoming edition. The festival, which has been a staple in the EDM scene since its inception, will be held at Dhargalim in North Goa from December 28 to 30, 2024. This shift in venue is expected to provide a vibrant and expansive backdrop that embodies the essence of Sunburn Goa, enhancing the festival experience and cultivating a more immersive atmosphere.
Dhargalim, a region known for its vast open fields, rich greenery, and proximity to many stunning beaches like Mandrem, Ashwem, Arambol, Baga, Calangute, and Morjim, offers the perfect blend of natural beauty. This allows for cutting-edge festival infrastructure, a staple at Sunburn Goa every year. The region's natural allure is complemented by its close proximity to Goa's rich cultural landmarks, promising attendees an immersive Goan experience.
