Changing their tactic from the previous 2 day festival last year, they convert and squeeze all the glory into one day focusing more on… well everything.

Four brand-new stages surface such as the Raging Kingdom, Underwater Kingdom, Spirit Kingdom and the Sphere Kingdom. There was definitely more than enough glory to go around for all the ravers.

But to truly appreciate all the magic one must also take a glance at all the hard work put forth by the production team of the formulation of this epic stage, which can be viewed down below:

With so many different activities to choose from I was eagerly searching which adventures to embark on first. Hovering over to the Underwater Kingdom is where my journey first began. As I began walking in that vicinity my attention instantly latched onto the drummers performing which earned my attention and respect as I levitated towards the sounds of the beat to investigate further.

After watching this stirring life performance I finally made my way and immersed myself underwater at the “Underwater Kingdom”. Greeted with ranging fans I mingled myself with my aqua friends as I captured the energetic vibes.

After gulfing myself underwater I “swam” over to the zip line to catch some fast paced excitement. Arriving just in time I caught David Solano making his way down the zip-line with a grand smile on his face.

The main stage, however, was a story of its own. With is massive lion head and the DJ nested inside the lion’s mouth it was a fascinating piece of artwork to behold.

It truly expressed all the colors conveyed in “Life In Color”.

I love seeing the power of music unifying people and witnessing all the different beautiful people throughout world come together for the most colorful event in their life.

After enjoying the beautiful vibes from the Raging Kingdom I re-submerged myself once more to the Underwater Kingdom just in time to witness Big Makk holding down the fort with some essential bass.
