ICELAND'S SECRET SOLSTICE FESTIVAL ANNOUNCE INITIAL DANCE LINEUP FOR 2015
June 19th-21st
After celebrating a successful first year in 2014, Iceland's Secret Solstice festival has announced its initial dance lineup for 2015.
Secret Solstice was made famous last year for patrons being able to party in perpetual daylight for three entire days. Due to being held over the summer solstice weekend and longest days of the year in Iceland, this means the sun never ever fully sets, giving a spectacular natural backdrop and a crazy 24 hour daylight energy like no other.
Check the video highlights from last year's event, which included Massive Attack, Schoolboy Q, Disclosure, Banks, Carl Craig, Jamie Jones, Damian Lazarus, Mum, Kerri Chandler and more -

Festival representatives say that this first offering is only an initial dance lineup, with a planned total of 150+ acts to be announced before the event that will feature many more mainstream rock, hip-hop, and pop acts.
