Circoloco Thailand Confirms Return for 2027
Circoloco Thailand confirms its 2027 return with three weekends set for January at Baba Beach Club Natai in Phuket.
Circoloco Thailand will return to Baba Beach Club Natai in January 2027, expanding to three weekends after its biggest edition in the country to date. More than 20,000 tickets were sold across two weekends in 2026, continuing the event’s growth since its Thailand debut in 2019. Over the years, Circoloco has brought artists including Seth Troxler, Peggy Gou, Michael Bibi, Chris Stussy, Mochakk and DJ Tennis to Natai, with the 2027 edition now set to become its longest run in Thailand so far.
Circoloco Thailand 2027 Dates and Venue
Circoloco Thailand 2027 will take place across three consecutive Saturdays on January 9, 16 and 23 at Baba Beach Club Natai in Phang Nga, just north of Phuket. Circoloco confirmed the full three-weekend run through its official Instagram account, announcing that it will return to Phuket for three weekends of day and night parties in January. The expansion makes 2027 the first three-weekend edition since Circoloco Thailand began in 2019.

Located directly on Natai Beach, Baba Beach Club Natai has hosted every edition of Circoloco Thailand since 2019. The property brings together its beachfront, pool and palm-lined outdoor areas, giving the event a coastal setting that contrasts with its original club home at DC-10 Ibiza. Its location in Phang Nga, close to Phuket International Airport, also makes it accessible for people travelling into southern Thailand from elsewhere in the country and overseas. After several editions in the same location, Baba Beach Club Natai has become closely associated with Circoloco Thailand, with the beach and surrounding grounds forming a recognisable part of the event each January.
Circoloco’s Global Influence and Thailand Connection
Circoloco became part of DC-10 Ibiza in 1999, ten years after the club first opened near Ibiza Airport. Its Monday parties went on to become one of the longest-running fixtures in Ibiza’s underground house and techno scene, helping establish DC-10 as one of the island’s best-known clubs for underground electronic music. Over more than two decades, Circoloco became known for long club sessions, carefully selected lineups and a booking approach that placed established names alongside DJs who were still gaining wider recognition. Those Monday parties remain central to DC-10 today, preserving a direct connection between the current Circoloco brand and the club where it began.
From Ibiza, Circoloco expanded into events across Europe, North and South America, Asia and Australia. Recent editions have taken place in New York, Miami, Amsterdam, Madrid, Paris, São Paulo, Melbourne, Lima, Warsaw, Zurich and Phuket, showing how far the party has travelled from its original Monday sessions at DC-10. Circoloco also moved into recorded music in 2021 with CircoLoco Records, launched in partnership with Rockstar Games and initially featuring artists including Seth Troxler, Kerri Chandler, Dixon, Rampa and Sama’ Abdulhadi. The label added another part to the wider Circoloco operation while keeping its focus closely connected to the house and techno artists associated with its events.
As that international presence has expanded, Thailand has developed into one of Circoloco’s recurring destinations in Asia. The brand returned to Phuket in January 2025 and January 2026, with another edition already confirmed for January 2027, creating a run of consecutive years that is unusual among its Asian events. That consistency has given Circoloco Thailand a more established role in the region, bringing the DC-10 Ibiza concept to Southeast Asia on a regular basis instead of through occasional standalone dates. With the event continuing to return to Phuket, Thailand has become an important part of Circoloco’s international expansion in Asia.
How Circoloco Thailand’s Lineups Have Evolved
When Circoloco first came to Thailand in 2019, the lineup closely reflected the artists already associated with its parties in Ibiza. The debut brought Seth Troxler, Peggy Gou, Richy Ahmed, Nic Fanciulli, wAFF, Serge Devant, Lauren Lane, Bas Ibellini and Mendy Indigo to Baba Beach Club Natai, before the 2020 edition expanded across two Saturdays with names including Jamie Jones, Jackmaster, Patrick Topping, Jasper James, Mella Dee, The Martinez Brothers, Bedouin and William Djoko.
After returning in 2023, the bookings widened while keeping a clear link to the wider Circoloco and DC-10 circuit. Michael Bibi, Joseph Capriati, HAAi, Shygirl, Skream, VTSS, ANOTR, Chris Stussy, Dennis Cruz, Carlita, Prospa, Sven Väth, Job Jobse, Palms Trax, Adriatique, Josh Baker, Shanti Celeste, Priku, Miguelle & Tons and Sossa have all appeared across more recent editions, showing how the Thailand lineups have continued to follow changes in international house and techno without losing the identity associated with the brand.
With three weekends confirmed for January 2027, Circoloco Thailand is entering its biggest edition yet at Baba Beach Club Natai, continuing a run that has grown considerably since the first event in 2019 while keeping Thailand firmly connected to one of the most established names in global house and techno.

As the second annual Valley of the Seven Stars approaches, bass music fans across the country are prepping their gear and locking in their set times. Taking over the Oak Ridge Estate in Arrington, Virginia from October 8–11, this gathering marks the long-awaited payoff of GRiZ’s two-year hiatus. The event has quickly earned a reputation as one of the bass community’s premier “homie” festivals, trading commercial refinement for deep curation and authentic energy. Whether you are hunting for ground-shaking low end or sunset grooves, here are the 7 most anticipated performances to highlight on your schedule:
7. Richard Finger
Set Time: Saturday, 4:50 PM – 5:50 PM
Operating entirely behind anonymous masks, Richard Finger has become one of bass music’s most intriguing underground phenomena. The mysterious duo popped onto the radar with relentless sound design and uncompromisingly heavy drops, rapidly earning a rotation in festival sets worldwide. While internet investigators continue trying to uncover their true identities, the project lets the sheer sound of low end rhythm do the talking. Catching them in the afternoon heat on Saturday is guaranteed to wake up the crowd.
6. Hedex
Set Time: Sunday, 8:30 PM – 9:30 PM
Hedex has been at the forefront of the modern drum and bass explosion. He has been taking jump-up rhythms out of underground UK clubs and pushing them onto major American festival stages. This performance serves as the official launch for his North American “Nu Era” tour. Known for quick double drops and explosive crowd control, his Sunday slot will deliver a shot of pure adrenaline just as festivalgoers enter the final night.
5. GRiZ (Chasing The Golden Hour)
Set Time: Saturday, 6:05 PM – 7:20 PM
GRiZ has always known how to curate a vibe, but his Chasing The Golden Hour (CTGH) concept holds a legendary place in the scene. It was originally conceived as a mixtape series built around vintage samples, mellow hip-hop beats, and live sax riffs. CTGH offers a soulful counterweight to his heavy dubstep headline sets. Following packed-out demand at past events, this sunset window is made for collective unwinding. It is the defining emotional anchor of the weekend, best experienced surrounded by friends on an open hill.
4. Mersiv
Set Time: Saturday, 8:30 PM – 9:30 PM
DJ & producer Anderson Gallegos, known professionally as Mersiv, has carved out a dedicated subculture with his trademark “Pretty Dark Loud” sound design. Mersiv crafts sets that feel simultaneously meditative and heavy by combining hypnotic downtempo atmospheres with distortion-heavy basslines. Dropping into Saturday prime time, his set will steer the valley into its deepest, most psychedelic sonic territory.
3. Seth David (R&Bass)
Set Time: Friday, 1:00 AM – 2:00 AM (After Hours)
Returning to the Seven Stars lineup for a second run, Seth David brings his signature R&Bass sound to the Satellite Stage. The project fuses classic 90s and 2000s R&B vocals with sub-bass frequencies. This set gives night owls a refreshing alternative to the standard festival sound anding directly in the after-hours slot,
2. Distinct Motive
Set Time: Sunday, 6:50 PM – 7:50 PM
Hailing from Ontario, Distinct Motive has spearheaded the revival of pure 140 BPM sound system culture in North America. His productions emphasize sub-bass, surgical mixing, and deep roots in old-school UK dubstep. Since his anthem “Wait A Minute” dominated stages everywhere, his profile has skyrocketed. Sunday evening marks his debut on the mainstage, bringing chest-rattling low frequencies to the festival’s largest sound system.
1. Kaleena Zanders
Set Time: Thursday, 8:00 PM – 9:00 PM
Revered as one of modern dance music’s most captivating vocal powerhouses, Kaleena Zanders channels gospel roots through classic house grooves. With major collaborative releases alongside fellow headliners, her live sets go far beyond ordinary DJ performances. Slotted into Thursday evening, she will set an uplifting, soulful tone for the entire cosmic campout before the heavier bass takes over.
With four days of music spread across The Valley, pacing is going to be everything. Set conflicts are inevitable when a lineup has this much variety. Be sure to leave room in your schedule to wander between stages and stumble onto artists outside your radar.

MiNT XL opens its doors in Leeds with a sold-out party for 2,500 ravers, as Craig Richards, Enzo Siragusa and Sonja Moonear launch the new nightclub
MiNT XL officially opened its doors on Friday, 25 September, with a sold-out opening party featuring names like Craig Richards, Enzo Siragusa and Sonja Moonear. 2,500 ravers gathered in the heart of Leeds city centre to experience the latest addition to the city’s rich rave culture, marking a memorable beginning for MiNT XL.
Taking over the former nightclub, PRYZM Leeds, MiNT set themselves the challenge of giving the venue a new identity through their own production and iconic signature. In an interview with EDM House Network earlier this year, MiNT marketing manager, Mikey McMahon said they wanted people to walk into MiNT XL and feel like they were part of something forward-thinking. There is no doubt they have achieved this, with the opening night already setting MiNT XL apart from other venues in Leeds.

Exploring The Venue’s Layout
Arriving at the venue, you could feel the excitement in the air as people made their way into the club. Music was bumping through the walls and the night was just getting started. Walking inside, the dark environment immediately made it feel like a rave and not a regular nightclub.
Heading up the stairs from the entrance, we reached the main hall of the venue, which houses two of the three rooms at MiNT XL, as well as an open-air terrace. The ‘Clubroom’ was the first room people encountered on the floor, while the main room, also known as the ‘Ballroom’, sits to the left of the hall.
The second floor is a great extension of what the main floor has to offer, hosting the venue’s third room, ‘Cage’, as well as an additional bar with sofas and seating for those wanting a quick break from the dancefloor. The VIP area is also located on this floor, providing a comfortable chill-out space with its own bar and seating area.
Credit: David Dumitru
The Rooms at MiNT XL
1. Ballroom
The largest of the three rooms, the ‘Ballroom’ is a warehouse type of space hosting the headlining names on MiNT XL’s line-ups. Some of the lighting features that stood out as soon as we walked into the room included the large ring structure above the dancefloor, as well as the linear rigs placed horizontally across the ceiling, which rotate to create a wave-like effect through light.
Another standout piece of the room is the newly installed Funktion-One Vero sound system, delivering bass that pumps through your body and an overall premium sound quality. The same system can also be found in the other two rooms, where its impact is even greater due to their smaller capacities.

2. Cage
Probably the most interesting room of the three, and our personal favourite, ‘Cage’ delivers an experience like no other. Its design feels unique and fresh out of the box, while still maintaining a lush feel. Throughout the opening night, the room was lit up with orange lighting, creating a somewhat comfortable atmosphere amid all the chaos going on.
Credit: David Dumitru
‘Cage’ also has a few sofas placed around the room, helping complete its luxurious feel. The cherry on top, however, is the fact that the space will often welcome DJs playing on vinyl. We had the chance to witness this live, and let me tell you, seeing the artists flip and swap records behind the decks totally elevates the experience.
Credit: David Dumitru
3. Clubroom
With a large light panel on the ceiling covering the centre of the dancefloor, ‘Clubroom’ is an ode to MiNT Warehouse, the brand’s second ever venue. Sharing similar characteristics, the room brings the MiNT Warehouse spirit to MiNT XL, carrying over the energetic vibes that have become a trademark of the brand.
While the room has a great design from a production perspective, the air conditioning isn’t felt as well in some corners, often making it a very hot space.

4. Terrace
An open-air space with a nice view of some of Leeds city centre’s tallest buildings, the terrace is a well-arranged spot for those who want to unwind a little and take a breath of fresh air. Located close to the ‘Ballroom’, the path to the terrace can, however, become very busy at times.
Credit: David Dumitru
The Music at MiNT XL
The venue opened with the brand’s own event series, ‘system.’, taking over the decks. Across the three rooms, a well-curated line-up delivered the soundtrack to MiNT’s new beginning.
From the perspective of EDM House Network, our highlights were Foehn & Jerome at the ‘Cage’, Craig Richards B2B Francesco Del Garda at the ‘Ballroom’, and then back to the ‘Cage’ for a vinyl session with Fumiya Tanaka.

Beyond the opening night, a wide range of renowned DJs are set to follow at MiNT XL, with the likes of Ewan McVicar, Riordan, Morgan Seatree and a Worried About Henry (WAH) takeover among those already announced. While so far only electronic music events make up the calendar, organisers have said they are excited to expand into new genres and live music.
Atmosphere Inside The Venue
MiNT XL operates a no-phones policy at all events, meaning attendees can fully immerse themselves into the music. Having experienced an event with such policy for the first time, it was impressive to see how big of a change it makes.
Seeing people living in the moment and having fun truly gave everyone a taste of what some mean when they say ‘raving was better in the 90s’. The no-phones policy genuinely made the night feel like a time machine that teleported us back to a time when people used to socialise and not chase Instagram clout at raves.
Credit: @elliotyoungphoto
With three state-of-the-art rooms, a 2,500-capacity venue, a sound system that blows the roof off and a no-phones policy, MiNT XL has real potential to become one of the best nightclubs in the entire UK. The opening party was not just the green light for a new venue in Leeds, but felt more like a statement that MiNT XL is here, and for good.
The club season is only just getting started, with a packed list of upcoming events already lined up at MiNT XL.
