If your New Year's Eve plan was to enjoy a raging night at the Sunburn Music Festival to be held in Goa, then you might have to rethink your plans as the festival will now be held from December 28 to 30 instead of December 31. Goa's Tourism Minister Rohan Khaunte announced that the festival, earlier slated to be held on the eve of 2024, will also be strictly monitored to follow all the guidelines laid down by the High Court. In addition, khaunte also mentioned that the state tourism department has issued a provisional NOC to Sunburn on the dates it will be held.
Though official announcements have been made, rumours that the music festival will get extended to the eve are still doing the rounds. However, Khaunte strictly warned against the propagation of such misinformation, stating that doing so would invite strict measures.
According to the NOC, playing music beyond 10 PM is not allowed. If the guidelines are not adhered to, appropriate action will be taken against the authorities.
If you think this news dampens the fun, then don't sweat it because the music festival authorities have left no stone unturned to ensure you have the time of your life. The now three-day extravaganza will feature a starry lineup of the world's most sought-after EDM artists, like Hardwell, Charlotte De Witte, Alesso, John Newman, and many more. The mega-event will be hosted in Vagator Beach and will feature six stages to host over 100 artists. In addition to that, the festival will also feature curated F&B experiences and VVIP lounges where you can enjoy unlimited spirits and food.
If you think you are late to the party because you haven't got your passes yet, there's still time to turn things around, as tickets are still up for sale.
