Prepare to ascend into a higher state of consciousness as elrow introduces its latest hyper-sensory concept, Hallucinarium, to the U.S. Created in collaboration with visionary artists Alex & Allyson Grey, this immersive experience debuted at Ibiza’s legendary Amnesia in September and is now set to captivate audiences in the States. Hallucinarium will make its U.S. debut at Radius in Chicago on November 29-30, followed by a finale at Factory Town during Miami’s Art Basel week on December 8.
Inspired by the psychedelic and spiritual art of the Greys, Hallucinarium is more than just a music event—it’s a journey through the peaks and valleys of human consciousness. Imagine a stage where transcendental beings dance amidst hypnotic backdrops, bringing the sacred geometry of the Greys’ world-renowned artwork to life.
Costumes designed by Alex and Allyson Grey will adorn performers portraying characters rooted in the divine imagination. Expect to encounter angel-headed dancers with flaming third eyes, stilt-walking seraphim with iridescent wings, and otherworldly beings guiding attendees through surreal landscapes. Hallucinarium feels more like a kaleidoscopic initiation ceremony than a traditional party. Participants will mingle with “Hallucinangels” and “Moongoats,” as colossal, multifaceted gods take control of the DJ booth, surrounded by monumental sculptures inspired by interdimensional beings.
The lineup of sonic selectors, soon to be announced, will deliver a sonic celebration with waves of house, techno, tech-house, and more. Hallucinarium promises to fuse art, music, and spirituality in a unique way, inviting attendees to transcend the mundane and experience an entirely new reality.
Both Radius in Chicago and Factory Town in Miami provide the perfect backdrops for this otherworldly event. Radius is a massive warehouse with cutting-edge production capabilities, ideal for large-scale electronic music experiences. Factory Town, with its open-air industrial setting and urban aesthetic, has become a cornerstone for forward-thinking events during Art Basel, making it a fitting location for Hallucinarium’s Miami debut.
Get ready to embark on a multisensory journey that will forever alter your perception of reality. Hallucinarium promises to take you beyond the ordinary and into the realms of pure imagination.
