After taking music lovers across the globe, including Amsterdam, Antwerp and Hong Kong, on an exciting ride, electronic dance music festival Don't Let Daddy Know (DLDK) is all set to rock India soon.
The founders of the international music festival have partnered with Ferriswheel Entertainment, an agency specialising in conceptualising, producing and directing live events and festivals, to present the world tour of their party on home turf.
After debuting in Privilege Ibiza in 2012, the fest has created waves in the music scene internationally by staging events in Manchester (UK), Chile, the Netherlands and Istanbul (Turkey) as well as hosting their own stage at Ziggo Dome, Mysteryland and Creamfields Festival.
And, now the party will extend its roots in India with their homegrown version of the one night dance music - DLDK India - featuring five of the global names in electronic music. The artists will come together to curate music of diverse genres of electronic dance music, including trap, dubstep and psy-trance.
The event, expected to be held early next year, will be hosted by international stars while the opening acts will feature some homegrown artists.
