Electric Elephant - Petrcane, Croatia, 12th - 16th July 2012

The Electric Elephant is a music festival nestled in the ancient coastal village of Petrcane situated on the sun sparkled sea of the adriatic. We can organise villas by the beach as well as small hotels and of course tickets and all transportation. This is more than just a festival, It’s a holiday adventure, an escape, a musical getaway, a meeting of like minded souls that invokes the original spirit of the unspoilt Ibiza of the seventies and early eighties. Live, love, dance. Just do it, you won't regret it! The Festival: Relax in the sunshine or beneath the pines, swim in the sea and dance into the night under moonlit skies amidst breathtaking surroundings. For families, it’s a perfect place to bring the kids and unwind on the beach through the day and into the evening, for others it’s a chance to let loose and party with soul mates old and new. Electric Elephant is a wonderfully wild mix of musicalness, international dj’s and live acts, ranging from blissed out balearica, sound system reggae, acoustic-folk and psychedelia to electronica, sunshine latin and soul, through spaced out disco and house, techno and late night futuristic jackin. It’s all there in beautiful harmony. The Destination: Petrcane itself is a village of good, kind people and evening markets and rustic restaurants serving fresh fish caught that day and olive oil fresh from the local groves. There are plenty of places we can arrange for you to rest your head from old cottages to villas by the sea to luxury hotels. Why not make your trip really special and charter a sailing boat and explore the mystical islands. There are stunning national parks, waterfalls and mountains to explore,all a short distance away. The ancient coastal city of Zadar with unique Sea Organ, bustling winding streets and open squares, is only a short bus or taxi ride away. 2011 Line up: Chicago’s house legend Derrick Carter, Detroit hotshot Kyle Hall, Bok Bok head honcho one of the UK’s hottest labels Night Slugs, party starters The Glimmers & Horse Meat Disco plus underground house hero Luke Solomon and hosts The Unabombers.
