- 3Explore the smaller, air-conditioned stages like the Yuma Tent for a break from the heat and a chance to discover world-class underground talent.

About the Author
Maurício Amaro
Maurício Amaro has spent 15 years covering nightlife, electronic music, and urban culture across four continents. Equal parts music nerd, map obsessive, and night owl — with a soft spot for rooftop bars, obscure techno labels, and late-night tacos. Neurodivergent, proudly chaotic, and always at the back of the room near the speakers.
