The festival’s Founder Alex Lowes says: “We’ve been busy behind the scenes getting ready for the 14^th edition of SunceBeat and all of the team are very proud of our first wave of artists. As always, we’ve got a mix of some super-hot talent breaking through and some familiar faces who know us well; some artists haven’t played for us for some time now, and we made a decision to get back to our musical roots by bringing these guys back. There’s plenty more to come and we can’t wait to welcome everyone to SunceBeat.”

SunceBeat takes place at The Garden Resort, Tisno, and features intimate beach-side dancing, bouncing boat parties, the mesmeric Olive Grove and headline artists on the Garden Stage. And of course partying until dawn at the open-air Barbarella’s, watching the sun rise through the pine trees around one of the world’s finest clubs. Tisno is a jewel on the Adriatic coast, with a plethora of restaurants, bars, hidden coves and intimate beaches.
