Music On Festival Returns To Amsterdam For Two Day Event

Marco Carola’s game-changing Music On Festival is to return bigger and better for its second year. Emboldened by the success of the launch event, next year’s Festival will expand to two days in the weekend of May 5th and 6th to allow for even more international heavyweights to line-up in Amsterdam. The ticket sales will start Tuesday 28th November at 12:00 PM CET.
 
These include two special sets from boss Marco and the return of The Martinez Brothers, Loco Diceand Apollonia and Music On Residents Stacey Pullen, Leon and Joey Daniel. Joining them on Music On Festival 2018 will be Paco Osuna, Luciano, Sam Paganini, Claude von Stroke, Miss Kittin, Oxia, Secret Cinema b2b Egbert and Benny Rodrigues.
 
Music On is the iconic weekly party Neapolitan star Marco Carola hosts every Summer Friday at Amnesia in Ibiza since 2012. The man’s marathon and boundary-pushing sets are joined by the finest names in the game lining-up together to make it one of the must-visit parties every season.
 
The same sense of techno spectacle that has made Music On famous around the world will be brought to Amsterdam, as will the special spirit and endless enthusiasm that makes the crowd one of the best anywhere. Amsterdam itself is a city that thrives on proper raves and so this coming together is sure to lead to fireworks come May.
 
Musically, every shade of techno is covered. Of course, the main man himself plays headline sets on both days and will be joined by Music On resident through-out the season: Paco Osuna. French house masters and also frequent guests of Marco Carola at Amnesia: Apollonia. On top of that, the boundlessly energetic DJ duo of Music On favourites The Martinez Brothers play withDesolat boss and master of chunky techno funk Loco Dice, electro great Miss Kittin, and many more.
 
In this long and strong line-up you can also expect Swiss Chilean master Luciano, another Italian star Sam Paganini, Dirtybird's bass lover Claude von Stroke, France’s techno titan Oxia, Italian party starter Leon as well as, plus veteran Benny Rodrigues and finally a special back to back set from Secret Cinema and Egbert.
 
This is already shaping up to be the most essential and standout techno festival in Europe next year, with plenty more announcements to come.
 
The ticket sales will start Tuesday 28th November at 12:00 PM CET
