First wave line-up released for SunceBeat 2022

Now in its 13th year, making it the longest-running festival to take place at epic The Garden Tisno venue, SunceBeat 2022 has just released the first wave of its line-up. Taking place from 21st to 28th July 2022, this popular event features an eclectic mix of genres, from underground house to disco, Afro to soul, R&B, funk and more.

SunceBeat draws its crowd of revellers from all over the world, who are drawn to its daytime blissed-out beats and sparkling hedonism that takes place through the evening and night and all the way through to dawn! The wonderful Garden Tisno site also has its many fans, with its pine-shaded hideaway-like space, the mesmeric Olive Grove, the main Garden Stage for headline artists…and not forgetting Barbarella’s, the unique open-air club which has no comparison. And let’s not forget the amazing boat parties that set sail on the glistening Adriatic, as well as the gorgeous private beach for daytime fun. If all of that isn’t enough, there’s also plenty to see and explore in the pretty town of Tisno or beyond in this part of Croatia.

Additionally, during the festival, DAM Swindle celebrate their 10th anniversary by hosting a night at Barbarella’s and a boat party; Paris’ iconic DJoon Club hosts the Beach Stage and a boat party. Sadar Bahar and Friends and Chicago’s Chosen Few also have takeovers during the festival, assembling ten legendary artists for SunceBeat.

SunceBeat’s founder, Alex Lowes, says:

We can’t wait to get back to Tisno this summer for our 13th year in Croatia. There’s no better place for some pure escapism on the coastline and our soundtrack from some of the world’s finest performers is set to be magical. We have been working hard to curate what we feel is our strongest line-up to date. We have lots of new names who we know will fit in perfectly in Tisno and capture the magic. We remain committed in continuing SunceBeat’s diversity in everything we do and feel our first wave of guests embodies this, with many incredible female artists and DJs across the festival, some of the most exciting new young talent breaking through and of course some SunceBeat icons back with us, part of our journey as the longest running festival at The Garden Tisno.
It’s a huge year for festivals in general, both in Croatia and around the world, so we are hoping it’s a good year for everyone in the scene as the industry continues to recover. We can’t wait to welcome everyone for what is going to be a brilliant summer in Tisno.
