Anjuna Family!
While we are getting ready for Common Ground Red Rocks in two weeks and Anjuna Beach in June, the anticipation has built steadily for Above and Beyond to announce the location of ABGT300.
Speculation has run wild. Argentina, India, back in America. Then a Facebook message came through and the boys said we could have a hint. Far East was the hint.
Anjuna Family Worldwide Facebook group lit up with every place from Thailand to North Korea. Japan, Cold be a good contender but our Editor in Chief announced “The hint was a duck, Peking Duck. My guess is China.”
WELL…
Today is the day…Paavo did the honors on Above and Beyond’s Group Therapy radio show.
ABGT300 will be held September 29th 2018!
Start making your plans!
We will see you all very soon in… Hong Kong!
Previous host venues of Group Therapy (ABGT) milestone events include New York City’s Madison Square Garden, Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome and London’s Alexandra Palace, and now the annual electronic music pilgrimage will take place in the Far East for the first time, on Saturday September 29.
Last year’s ABGT250 celebrations saw over 23,000 fans converge on the stunning Gorge Amphitheatre near Seattle, while the 2016 edition broke new ground when fans from over 70 countries made the journey to Amsterdam to celebrate 200 episodes of Group Therapy.
2018 has already been an eventful year for Above & Beyond, with the group’s fourth artist album ‘Common Ground’ debuting at Number 3 on Billboard’s Album Chart and topping the iTunes Dance charts in over 40 countries. A sell-out tour of North America followed at some of the US’ most prestigious venues including, among others, the LA Convention Center, Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and Miami’s Old RC Cola Plant.
Above & Beyond commented: “Last year’s ABGT250 Weekender at The Gorge was a magical experience but also left us wondering ‘how do we follow that?’ The answer was to go for something completely different and Hong Kong and the Far East represent a new frontier for Group Therapy, at what is an exciting and groundbreaking time for electronic music in the region.”
Fans who can’t make the trip will be pleased to hear that Above & Beyond will once again broadcast the whole event live online. More details on how fans can participate in the livestream will be revealed over coming months. Last year’s ABGT250 livestream reached over two million people, with the event hashtag reaching top spot on Twitter’s trending charts.
With previous ‘ABGT’ milestone events selling out rapidly, fans are advised to pre-register for tickets via Facebook Messenger or Email at ABGT300.com. Those who register will be sent a link giving them a chance to purchase tickets at early bird prices on Friday May 18 at 6pm Hong Kong time. Full venue details will be revealed prior to the on-sale, along with plans for an Anjunadeep Open Air after party on Sunday September 30.
