One of the most prestigious events to hit South Africa’s social calendar will soon be underway, when the Who’s-Who of SA’s elite come together to party.
The build-up has already begun as G&G Productions once again pulls out all the stops to prepare for this year’s Official Vodacom Durban July After Party, to be held at the DLI Hall on the evening of 7 July. Powered by Vodacom 4U and Samsung, this event forms the climax of a weekend filled with pure entertainment for Durban and its visitors.
Each year G&G Productions incorporates the latest trends, features and infrastructure to enhance the after party experience. Partygoers can expect three dance floors, with top headline DJs and performers on each. Whether you are on the Supercharged Main Dance Floor, the Enchanted Garden or in the VIP Deluxe area, you’ll experience something spectacular. The latest in lighting, stage design, sound, and over 50 pre-produced on-screen displays and projections are just the beginning of the event’s highlights. An unrivalled line-up is guaranteed to keep the spirits high late into the night, as G&G Productions delivers on their promise of being Africa’s loudest brand.
The world of dance and electronic music is always changing, with a natural preference for large music festivals developing worldwide. Trance is becoming more and more prominent as a featured sound for any big dance floor. This year, G&G Productions takes these trends into account, ensuring an event that is bigger and better than ever before. The format of the event has been altered to follow a festival approach. This means a long list of top DJs, a diversity of music styles playing on a variety of dance floors, unique decor elements and an all-round atmosphere of opulence and revelry.
The event is endorsed by Gold Circle and is the official after party sponsored by Vodacom 4U and Samsung. Samsung has a strong brand presence, and many of the creative and innovative aspects that the company provides in its technologies will be mirrored in this after party. The DLI main hall will be labelled the Supercharged Dance Floor – this floor will have a more commercial feel, with an electronic edge. Another highlight this year is the Enchanted Galaxy Dance Floor, which will feature some of the country’s most talented trance DJs.
VIP Deluxe is a twofold offering: a cosy dance floor with top local artists and a relaxed indoor/outdoor chill environment. Patrons can lounge around low top tables, enjoying hubblies whilst watching the mystical enchanted floor in the background. All coolers and ciders are free to VIP Deluxe ticket holders in this area.
