Festival season is over, but that doesn’t mean you can’t dance. Be sure to check out one of these wintertime festivals where you can rave at a variety of temperatures.

 

 

Sunburn in Goa, India

Goa is the birthplace of psytrance and a historic rave destination, so it makes sense India’s biggest EDM festival is located on its beautiful beaches.

BPM Festival in Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Originally a trade event for the nightlife industry, BPM Festival is now a major outlet for Latin America’s growing dance music community. Set against picturesque beaches and Mayan ruins, the festival has one of the biggest and best curated lineups you can find.

 

 

Rainbow Serpent in Lexton, Australia

It’s in the middle of January, but that’s the only thing “winter” about this desert festival. Rainbow Serpent is Australia’s version of Burning Man, starting out as a psytrance festival before growing in scope and size.

 

 

Ultra South Africa in Capetown and Johannesburg, South Africa

The Miami festival brand has been taking its show all around the world, this time to South Africa, where there is a growing rave scene thirsty for EDM.
