Hideout Festival Croatia - Boat and Pre-Parties and new VIP packages announced

The debut Hideout festival Croatia offers value for money to see exclusive performances of the world's finest artists in one of the most beautiful spots in the world. The first in a series of boat parties are now announced as well as preparties and special VIP packages completing an incredible weeklong stretch of activity.

Featuring stages from Resident Advisor, Crosstown Rebels, Wax:on and Metropolis and the likes of Sven Vath, Annie Mac, Chase & Status, Jamie XX, Simian Mobile Disco, Pendulum, Redlight, Seth Troxler, Andy C, Crookers and Fake Blood, Hideout is mapped out to indelibly place Croatia at the centre of the electronic music map. A series of boat parties will be taking place outside of the weekend's activities on the main Hideout site, hosted by various heavyweight musical brands and featuring artists from the weekend as well as some exclusive additions. The first of which is the Welcome To Hideout boat party, witnessing a beautiful sunset on the Adriatic on Thursday 30th June. Artists will be announced soon.

Two special preparties will also take place from Wednesday 29th June at Cocomo, a 500 capacity venue in the harbor and the starting place for the boat parties, and Kalypso on Thursday 30th June, an ambient venue on Zrce beach that meets an enchanted forest and the perfect place to begin the weekend's main festivities. With early bird tickets already sold out for Hideout, the festival brought together by two UK event heavyweights, The Warehouse Project and Electronic Music Group, some special limited VIP tickets are announced. These will provide access via a VIP entrance and to exclusive areas in each venue, overlooking all the action and providing table service. All for the usual price of a festival ticket, £139, they will also include limited merchandise from Hideout. High quality accommodation and private transfers to the site will also be included in special VIP packages provided by travel2hideout.com adding ease and an element of style to the week and promising a more than memorable stay.

Hideout takes place from Friday 1st July until Sunday 3rd July on a brand new site on the historical coast of Croatia. A gem in the magnetic Adriatic region, the main site features two outdoor stages and two outdoor swimming pools, one indoor as well as outdoor venue offering stunning views over the sea, and a large VIP area. Artists will also play intimate performances offsite at numerous daily boat parties, beach parties and in unusual venues, promising to be the most pioneering festival of the summer.

Bringing together 10,000 attendees from across Europe, the innovative Hideout is another great reason to visit this rich and spectacular area.
