If any of you work in publishing, radio, TV or have your own website and want to do a story about Fantazia, the Rave scene or dance music, we would love to help with interviews, comments, profiles by email, phone or video..
Below you will find some interesting facts about Fantazia to get you started:
Fantazia are the biggest brand in rave music and still put on many large events to this day. We think your readers would be interested to hear more about the height of the rave scene (not just the M25 days) and we would be happy to do an interview, biography, competition, giveaway or something else with your mag. Fantazia held the record for the largest ever single arena rave (25,000 Donnington 1992), Largest indoor rave (12,000 SECC 1993), largest single arena house event (12,000 G-mex 1997), we also featured on the ITN News, front page of the News of the World, Sun, Telegraph etc etc
Our record company sold several million compilation and those including the gold selling House collection and Club Classics now sell for large amount £30-50.
Our website is the largest in the UK on the past and present rave/hardcore scene. It has profiles on much of the scene and is very informative. We have done a series of sell out 8000 people events in Scotland over the last few years and have a 2000 people party in Stoke on our actual birthday.
