Witness to the birth of house music, Honey Dijon’s mastery of the craft proliferates legend wherever she plays. A singular force with a reputation instinct, her world-class curation ensures singular experiences wherever she plays – marrying her brazen nature with history at the centre of every performance. The GRAMMY Award winning icon’s Black girl magic legacy is revered from Beyonce and Lady Gaga to Louis Vuitton and Dior.
Complimented by Sofia Kourtesis whose ascent continues in the wake of her debut album Madres. Tempering the bright, breezy technicolour of her native Peru with the hard driven club of her German home base, the transatlantic DJ’s runaway imagination sparks rapture at every turn. The fast rising electronic star’s local jaunt follows tours with Caribou and Bicep to major festival appearances as Glastonbury to Primavera.
Setting the tone for the day is Eora / Sydney multi-hyphenate Deepa, projecting community on every dancefloor and at the centre of her creative ethos. With a human touch that straddles intimacy and invigorates expectation, the Bypass and Kerfew Collective founder, Club 77 resident and fbi.radio broadcaster magnifies each set with her connection across the ‘Eoracore’ scene to Ahadadream, Jamz Supernova, Jayda G and more.
Continuing on their mission of uninhibited enjoyment with their core values of celebrating community, Summer Dance continues to be recognised as a pillar in the local event space with an enviable tally of consistent sell out status. Long established for their brand of memorable, ‘need to be there’ experiences side by side with a welcome baptism or return home at Sydney’s premier day to night party. Boasting cutting edge programming that places lauded talent as Folamour, Bicep, Moodymann, Jyoty, Four Tet, Yung Singh, Eris Drew and Octo Octa side by side with primed to break locals Crybaby, Sollyy, Jennifer Loveless, CC:DISCO! to JamesJamesJames and beyond.
