We Love... Opening Fiesta 2013

Finally, a reason to be excited about Monday mornings!.

Last week we all woke up on Monday feeling a little emotional and with the overwhelming feeling that everything would have been better if we'd have been to We Love... at Space the previous night. Mondays are for recovering from those parties after all. This Monday, the feeling is much the same, only it's been another week without We Love... and we're all starting to get a little apprehensive. Rejoice though, as the We Love team have thrown us a life line in the form of their Opening Fiesta lineup!

Pow. There it is! We Love... strolls confidently into its 15th year on the island, armed with 17 weeks of 12 hour long sessions in 5 different rooms to look forward to this season - kicking off on Sunday 9th June at 7pm, and check out this years new theme and logo too!

The Discoteca is once again currated by James Zabiela's new baby, his Born Electric imprint and contained within those walls we will see a series of exclusive back-to-backs from Joy Orbison Vs Ben UFO and Space fav Paul Woolford Vs Midland.

La Terraza, scene of many of the best late Monday morning parties, will play witness to two artists you'll not likely want to miss. Innervisions' Henrik Schwarz is all in for a fully Live performance as he returns without 'the other two', alas he is joined by none other than Carl Craig. Carl has been seen many times over the 2012 season playing in the Discoteca, so it'll be nice to settle into some Detroit techno proper.

Excitingly, Krafty Kuts and A Skillz will be present on the night as they take over the Sunset Terrace for Mr Doris' After Dark session, ensuring the We Love... mantra of as many musical taste's you have, or didn't yet know you had, are accounted for, all under the name of Finger Lickin presents 10 years of Tricktechnology. Check that. Before these guys we'll have Bicep, making the move from El Salon in previous years, for the first of three dates over the season.

Alfredo, legend of the 80s responsible for enticing the first wave of tourists to the island, returns to the scene of many dancefloor moments last year - the Premier Etage. Joining him will be Futerboogie's Dave Harvey, Christophe and Nick The Gardener, top Garden Festival man for the aptly named Garden Festival Get Together.

Dave Phillips and Matty J, of Tirk Records fame, will take charge of El Salon with more guests to be confirmed soon. This is part of an on going residency for Dave called 'The Lo Cura Lounge' where friends and family of Lo Cura and We Love... will be having a family affair over the course of the summer.

Tickets available from Spotlight now - priced at 40€ for normal entry, and 20€ for early entry, before 9pm.
