FESTIVALS
Returning to Valais between the 7th and 10th of
December, the Polaris Festival will slam the ski resort with
a lineup that's heavy AF.
Across the four days Polaris will host over
40 artists in the breath-taking setting of
the Verbier ski resort in Valais, Switzerland.
They have sorted another jaw dropping
mix of house, electro and techno with big
names including Derrick May, Luciano &
Seth Troxler in one of the biggest festival
bills this winter season.
Only in its third year, the Polaris festival
has already made some serious waves on
the festival circuit, delivering top talents at
a height of 2,200 feet. Last year it grabbed
the 'Best Big Event' award at the Swiss
Nightlife Awards last year, and looks set to
do the same again this year.
This year's highlights includes the Russian
techno icon; Nina Kraviz, Detroit techno
pioneer Derrick May, FXHE label head;
Omar-S, and Derrick Carter's 'Does Disco'
show. Performing live across the weekend
is house head Virgo Four and Larry Heard
aka Mr. Fingers who makes his Swiss debut.
