Famed for being the setting of Luke Skywalker’s hometown of Mos Espa in the original Star Wars film franchise, the location of this 30-hour rave is like none other, with sand dunes and traditional Tunisian domed houses in the backdrop of the festival’s two stages, which will host 30 of the best acts from Tunisia and the global underground electronic music scene.
Organised by the folks behind Plages Electroniques in the French Riviera and celebrating its third birthday this summer, Les Dunes Electroniques turns three has already begun making waves to transform the global image of Tunisia and puts it on the festival map.
