A highlight of last year’s festival, each voyage will see 200 revellers take to the warm azure seas as the festival’s best loved DJ’s, record labels and club nights host their own four hour long boat parties each offering an eclectic mix of hip-hop, reggae, drum n’ bass and salty sea shanties.

With two journeys planned a day there are plenty opportunities to take in the views of the beautiful Dalmatian islands; allowing party goers a unique way to experience the gorgeous scenery with a sea breeze in both their face and in their hand.

Said Noah Ball, co-Founder of The Soundwave Festival, “Last year’s boat parties were a highlight of the festival with the likes of DJ Yoda and DJ Vadim braving the waves. This year’s line up is even bigger and there’s really no better way to spend the afternoon than partying your way out to sea and back on board the infamous Argonaughty!”

With hosts including the Red Bull Academy, New bohemia and Hoya:Hoya bringing their own twists to each boat party, tickets for the boat parties will no doubt sell out fast; This is one experience every Soundwave goer has to indulge in.

One of the leading figures of the UK scene for nearly two decades now, Tom Middleton has been responsible for pushing back the boundaries of electronic music under a variety of pseudonyms. Whether producing electro (as Jedi Knights), ambient music (as Global Communications), house (as Cosmos) or any number of the other genres he has excelled at, Tom has consistently been a pioneer and innovator and as a veteran of many festivals such as The Big Chill s a worthy addition to any line up.

Said Rob Waller, co-Founder of The Soundwave Festival, “I’ve spent many a happy hour dancing to Tom’s sets at various festivals over the years, so we’re delighted to have him on board, I can’t think of anywhere better to listen to him spin than on a warm sandy beach under the stars.”

Other additions to the line-up announced today include VZI, Laura J Martin, East Park Reggae Collective, Black Diamond Bay, Boy Com, 2econdclasscitizen, Paper Tiger, The 39 Steps, Mr Doris, Slutty Fringe DJs, Tom Central and the Confusion DJs.

The promoters also announced that throughout April, festival goers will be able to purchase 5 tickets for the price of four, making this already affordable summer break even better value for money.

Said Noah Ball co-Founder of The Soundwave Festival, “When we came up with the idea for The Soundwave Festival our goal was to create not only the best event we could, but to make sure that it was affordable to as many people as possible. Looking at the current line up and with tickets costing less than the average night out in the UK, I think we can happily say we’ve succeeded on both counts.”

The festival is set in the gorgeous surroundings of Petrcane, close to Zadar, a fishing village on a peninsular where the Dalmation Coast meets The Adriatic Sea. With an outside Amphitheatre overlooking the ocean for live acts, a Beach Side Terrace for day & night time dancing and a 600 capacity nightclub for the beats to go on right through the night, it is one of the most unique places in the world to host a party.

The surrounding area is equally beautiful and there is plenty to do such as island hopping, exploring the national parks and nearby mountains, enjoying the culinary delights of the local farming and fishing villages, or just relaxing on any of the nearby golden beaches.
