While featuring big EDM names like DeadMau5, Svdden Death, Crankdat and a veritable armada of DJs, the festival’s creative team draws in guests with their commitment to a narrative story they’ve developed, complete with themed stages and collectible trading cards reminiscent of Magic: The Gathering.
The festival’s storyline follows the clash of two enchanted kingdoms, the Cyberians and Thereons, and protagonist Alana as she navigates the chaos of a brewing war. With five stages that each correlate with an aspect of the story, Forbidden Kingdom presents an opportunity for traditional festivalgoers and Dungeons and Dragons nerds to come together and dance.
But do come prepared for the not-at-all mythical heat, please.
