New York, NY (Top40 Charts) From its groundbreaking debut in 2009, INTRO has successfully established itself as the pioneering electronic music festival that China was crying out for. An annual showcase of the best of China's thriving electronic music scene, INTRO rallies electronic music lovers from around the globe to the pulse of the world's most exciting emerging electronic mecca.
On May 1st, 2015, INTRO will once again welcome and delight over 10,000 music lovers at Xianghe's Grand Epoch City!
Finding a suitable venue is a constant struggle, but we are incredibly excited about holding the upcoming festival in a fantastic location that evokes old Beijing - Grand Epoch City, located about 50 km away from Beijing's Chaoyang district.
INTRO 2015's electronic beats will ignite and unite over 10,000 like-minded hearts and souls, sending twice as many arms and legs into a dancing frenzy. Embodying values of unity, positivity and respect for nature, INTRO is an idea, an attitude and a lifestyle epitomizing everything this generation - fast, fun and forward-thinking - wants from today's Beijing.
As the festival's motto - "Ideas Need To Reach Out" - lays plain, INTRO is a platform for expressing our belief in music's vital potential for connecting people, and is a showcase supporting innovation in electronic music and digital art. INTRO is run by people who love life, music, freedom, art and alternative culture, for people who share that passion.
