Screw 2012, apparently the world’s gonna end on February 28th (or so we’re told). Either way, this night looks pretty damn good. They’ve reeled in some of the best indie and hip hop acts around, as well as a plethora of DJs… and the crowd provides their own light sources! Gimmicky? Yes. Awesome? Also yes.
Anyway, here’s what organisers have to say:
On Sunday Feb 28 we celebrate the end of summer, the end of holidays, and the end of the world – with an Armageddon themed ‘lights out’ event putting 2012 to dust. Taking over 2 levels of the Exchange Hotel (Q Bar / 34B / Spectrum) we’ve created an end-of-the-world micro-festival filled with darkness, natural disasters, dire emergencies, live acts and a tonne of DJs.
We party in the dark! Each guest is required to bring illumination to provide your own personal light show!
