Amidst the ongoing reports about Goa not hosting music festivals in the month of December, Vh1 Supersonic has gone ahead and announced news dates and a new city for the festival’s 4th edition.
Shifting the dates from December 2016 to 10th – 12th February 2017, the gargantuan festival is all set to move to the cultural capital of Maharashtra, Pune. The strategic decision to move to the Youth Capital, the festival will also move to a 3 day schedule, as compared to 4 days in the previous editions.
Speaking about the shift in venue, Saugato Bhowmik, Head, LIVE Viacom18, said,
“Carrying a legacy of offering the best in dance music, we are excited to host the upcoming edition of Vh1 Supersonic in Pune. Deeply-rooted in culture and traditions, the city is known for its openness towards modern influences and thought. Pune is a seamless blend of local culture and global influences, thereby making it an apt destination for the upcoming edition of Vh1 Supersonic! We also see this as an ongoing journey to provide transformative experiences to today’s youth by creating the Supersonic world at the kind of world-class destinations that Pune is providing to us. We are looking forward to a very successful Vh1 Supersonic, celebrating Pune as our new home.
Having hosted the likes of Pretty Lights, Dash Berlin, Above & Beyond for Vh1 Supersonic Arcade in the city previously, the festival already holds quite a connect with the people of Pune, and this latest move will seek to strengthen the ties even more.
