From Tomorrowland to EDC to Soundstorm, festivals in the world of electronic and dance music continue to elevate the bar on production values, entertainment, and community building. So what are we missing? Enter Wonderfruit, a festival in Thailand who dared to do something completely different: a 360° stage presented in immersive sound.
Experts from Polygon Live, an innovative collective combining sound and light in powerful new immersive deployments, and L-Acoustics, a leader in premium live sound systems, discuss the transformative power of sound and its evolution in a festival environment.
Space is limited, please RSVP HERE to secure your spot.
