We're Giving Away A Trip For Two To Unknown Festival in Croatia

Just because we can

Short of staging a music festival literally in Jesus' golden anus, you simply cannot top the setting for Croatia's Unknown Festival on the idyllic shores of the Adriatic, nearby to a constellation of beautiful forested islands.

Yeah we didn't know it got really warm in Croatia either, but it does. Apparently it's like the Bahamas of Central Europe, or like a less good Italy, and what with the festival taking place from the 8th to the 12th of September, Unknown might be your last chance to soak up some Vitamin D before the winter rocks up and takes a massive dump on your serotonin levels.

Owing to the fact that we're basically even better than you're best friend from school who once saved you from choking on a Murray Mint in year 14, we're gonna send you and a mate to Croatia for free. Flights and accommodation for you and your bud are included in the prize, though sadly not your Pina Colada kitty. You're own on your own there, bub.

To touch briefly on the MUSIC, Unknown will play host to a bevvy of the toppest most top dance acts in all of Christiandom, including Numbers party-boy Jackmaster, Trash legend Erol Alkan for all your peak-time needs, and techno cause célèbre Seth Troxler, while John Talabot will be on hand to cool you out come sundown with his signature brand of downtempo house. Not only that, but none other Chic Feat. Nile Rodgers are headlining. Warm waters, white sands, Chic in the sun - it don't get much better.

Oh yeah, and did we mention THUMP has its own freaking BOAT. Yeah, we call it the HSS Unbelievable and we'll be hosting Big Pimpin'-style boat parties on the good ship Unbelievable throughout the weekend, with the aid of such DJ luminaries as Eats Everything, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Sean Brosnan and DJ Anna Wall. The THUMP boat party is now sold out, but if you win the comp you and your besser will be ushered aboard the THUMP super yacht like a diamond-studded uber-mensch.
