Over 50 DJs. Across 10 Stage Hosts




Cocoon is the name of Sven Väth's vision of creative development in electronic music. A quality brand, divided into different branches including among others the record label: Cocoon Recordings, the booking agency: Cocoon Artist Booking and Cocoon Clubbing, which organises club events as well as outdoor events and tours.




Over the past three years since it's inception, Channel Zoo has hosted some of the most forward thinking artists within the electronic music sphere on it's Wednesday events in Ibiza. A diverse range of some of the industries finest brands, record labels and artists have graced it's stages and helped to build the foundations for this now unparalleled underground electronic music event.




It's more than four years since the jaunt boys created this now internationally recognised brand. Encompassing Newcastle, London and Ibiza, their niche parties and renowned atmospheres have paved the way for the exponential growth of their fan base alongside a Podcast series with over 180,000 subscribers. Priding themselves on bringing the underground to the main stage whilst keeping their feet firmly on the ground and spreading their hospitable ethos they will be joining forces with Junk to host a stage at The Zoo Project Festival. With its forward-thinking musical policy, meticulous attention to detail, enthusiasm and party-first, ask-questions-later ethos, Junk have been blazing a trail over the past few years in the clubbing industry and we can't wait to see what kind of a journey they will both take us on this September.




DJ Mag began as a monthly magazine, first printed in 1991, dedicated to dance music. It has since developed into one of the industries most important sources for electronic music news.




Kaluki was formed in a grubby Manchester basment in 2006 as one of the final raves at the historic manchester nightclub Sankeys Soap. Fast forward nearly five years and the events have become part of local legend with off the scale monthly parties headlined by underground artists.
