Zamna Festival is one of the most relevant global electronic phenomena of recent years. A festival born in 2017 in Tulum and since then spread all over the world, from Barcelona to Dubai, from Bali to New York, from Ibiza to Malta.
This summer it took place in June at the Ex Macello in Milan; Zamna Milano featured Adriatique, Armonica b2b Zamna Soundsystem and Valerie Fox (a date curated by Amnesia Milano and Social Music City). On 2nd and 3rd August, the Zamna Côte d’Azur line-up was staged at the Natural Base in Frejus, France; it included &ME and Adam Port, Amelie Lens, Anfysa Letyago and ARTBAT, among others. What’s next on the calendar? Friday 27th and Saturday 28th September Zamna Madrid in La Pinilla (Sierra de Ayllón) with Paul Kalkbrenner, Fideles and Mathame (Friday) and Agents of Time, Andrea Oliva, Zamna Soundsystem (Saturday). Overnight packages and shuttle buses from various Spanish cities are also planned.
Zamna Festival means sharing, great music, a very cool and relaxed atmosphere: an ideal situation for a cosmopolitan audience. To confirm this, in October Zamna will take place in Mexico City, in November in São Paulo (Brazil). In January 2025 it will return home again to 2, a Mexican city that has become one of the world capitals of electronic music.
Will 2025 be the right year for a Zamna Festival in Africa? Beats of Africa and its readers wholeheartedly wish so!
