°°°Introduction°°°
~ Connection means a sense of belonging. It's the feeling of coming home. ~
It's soft grass underfoot, while surrounded by people who make our hearts full. It's laughing as we dance in the rain like children. It's feeling the music reverberate through our souls.
°°°The Space and Time°°°
We are so excited, honoured and humbled to invite you to join us at the most breathtaking venue we've found yet, in this magnificent place we call home.
This year, Connexion will be held at Amphitheatre Backpackers Lodge in the Northern Drakensberg. The festival will be extended to a 5-day event.
°°°Our New Partner from Switzerland°°°
We're steeped in gratitude for every beautiful moment shared and every bond forged since Connexion kicked off in 2018. Now we have the opportunity to forge a new one. We are elated to announce that Changa Children from Switzerland are investing in our brand. This collaboration allows us to keep making Connexion the best experience we can.
°°°The International Headliners°°°
~ Kliment and Arjuna ~
Kliment/Once Upon A Time
Zenon Records/Forrestdelic Records
We were fortunate enough to host this mild-mannered and charming Bulgarian in 2019, and the powerful magic he cast through his frequencies got all the way into our hearts and souls.
We cannot adequately express the excitement that grips us to reconnect with this storyteller.
Arjuna
Parvati Records
He was born in India and grew up between there and Italy. His music wild and dense, weaving together textures from other realms that transport a dance floor to alien forests. He's been slaying it all over the world, playing to audiences tens-of-thousands strong.
We feel privileged to host such a passionate professional.
°°°Our motivation°°°
For us, the goal for Connexion has always been to keep it tight. We create a space that allows some wild sonic and optical wizards to gift us with their time and mastery - to show us how they do. We endeavour to serve the scene, because together we make every Connexion better and more powerful than the last.
We're passionate about creating authentic experiences. We cater for those, who, like us, seek out different vibrations. By embracing change and growth, it keeps the energy in our beloved scene fresh. This is what we hope to achieve by hosting like-minded humans from across the country, and across the world. For the love of underground music, its culture and its people. Thank you for being part of it. OneLove.
