MTV Bloc Party “Know Your Venue”

I’m sure we’re all pretty psyched that MTV Bloc Party is going to commence tomorrow, but before you leave your house tomorrow to return absolutely wasted and left with memories that will imprint in your head, do you really know your venues? Here’s where we help you out.

So the very first venue, the main venue, where you’ll be able to see the likes of artists like Deniz Koyu and Alesso, is Central Bloc. If you’re right now googling Central Bloc on Google Maps and get no results, fret not, that’s just an alias. Central Bloc is located at Juhu Hotel Lawns, which is right beside Tulip Star Hotel, which is incredibly infamous within Juhu, so you should have no problems reaching the venue. A little tip for you little ravers, try and use public transport or use a designated driver. We all presume you’re going to be under the influence of alcohol and it comes without saying, Don’t drink and drive. You’re also bound to expect quite some traffic, with 1000′s of ravers all approaching one venue.

Central Bloc, i.e Juhu Hotel Lawns, is going to be facing the beach. That’s right, in all it’s simplicity, Central Bloc is a lawn facing the beach to give you a perfect Sundown experience and welcomes the night almost perfectly. Make sure you’re wearing the right raving attire.

Now let’s bring on the night, (no pun intended).

After we’re all done being Bongbastic and losing our minds, the party doesn’t stop there. MTV has a few tricks up it’s sleeves. So it brings you, not one – not two, but THREE after-parties called Night Bloc. And they’re all spread over Juhu so you get to choose which party you want to be attending.

The first of the venues, located in the prestigious JW Marriott Hotel, is Enigma. Enigma has been synonymous with clubbing scene in Mumbai for many years now, and they decided to take this a notch up. Enigma recently underwent renovation, just in time to accommodate MTV’s Night Bloc Party. Enigma will see the likes of artists like Vandana, Pearl, Matthew Charles and a duel set by Nawed Khan and Nikhil Chinapa.

MTV likes to keep it classy, which brings us to the second venue, Gadda Da Vida, located in the grande Novotel Hotel in Juhu. This famous lounge is located on the beach, being sea-facing again so you don’t miss out the feel of Central Bloc, and has a brilliant deck. If you choose to attend this venue, you’re going to be seeing Kumar Swamy, Jean Elan, Pramod Sippy and another duel set by Arjun Vagale and Tuhin Mehta.

Our last and final venue doesn’t hold back of any prestige either, we welcome you to The BeachComber. Located at the Sun N Sand Hotel in Juhu, being neighbors with Novotel Hotel, you should have no problem transiting between these venues. BeachComber, as the name suggests, gives you the feeling that you’re being served drinks with some beautifully delivered music right at a beach. Drop in to this venue to see witness AFM, Anish Sood + Lost Stories, REJI and B.R.E.E.D. 

Now that we’ve got you well-versed with the venues and the artists associated with them, we from Bangin Beats hope you have a Bangin time at the MTV Bloc Party. We wish all you little ravers a great time and be safe.

Here’s the full schedule so you can plan your Bloc Party to suit your tastes:
