Global Gathering 2013 Review from Fantazia's Georgie

Some of the Fantazia crew hit Global this year and below you can hear some of George's thoughts and I think she was impressed.  It was only a couple of years ago that Fantazia hosted 1 of the outdoors stages at the event and we would love to be back again...just waiting for that call...

Come rain or shine, Global Gathering never fails to deliver one of the best electronic dance music festivals in the UK. The immense line up meant there was a genre for every dance hedonistic to jump up to. 

Dance music has made a serious come back in the recent years, and Global Gathering has given us a place to celebrate in true old skool style, at Long Marston Airfield since 2001. Now we’re here in 2013 ready to go again!

On arrival seeing the towering stages and dizzying tents, you couldn't help but feel an overpowering buzz of excitement as you entered this crazy parallel universe, where time seems to be be set to fast forward. The scorching weather topped off with that amazing Friday feeling got everyone in a great mood for an awesome festival. 



Friday at The Main Stage started off with Rudimental, Disclosure and Plan B blowing it up and packing out the arena, setting the bar high for the other tents! The launch of the Godskitchen Fusion Cube was out of this world. The 460 meters of LED light strips hypnotized the festival goers into a state of euphoria. Complete with dancers, lasers and incredible, pumping music, this arena was by far, the best i’ve seen to date; DJ Fresh, Andy C and Shy FX smashed up the stage in the UKF Bass Culture arena. 

Despite not finding the secret bunker; which sounded insane with lasers and underground sound, the atmosphere of the whole was fantastic and that was enough! One night was definitely not enough! This weekend is not one to be missed. The Fantazia crew had yet another amazing experience at Global Gathering; bring on 2014, we will find this secret bunker!  Georgie x
