SIGHT & OPIUM BEACH ANNOUNCE SUMMER SERIES FEAT. MARCO CAROLA, LOCO DICE, FOLAMOUR, WHOMADEWHO, MISS MONIQUE, AGENTS OF TIME, SOLARDO, BORIS BREJCHA, CLAPTONE AND MORE

Spanish clubbing institution SIGHT is to host a brand new residency at Opium Beach Marbella, one of the top-tier clubs in Southern Spain. This season is their biggest best yet with the likes of Marco Carola, Loco Dice, WhoMadeWho, Mathame, Miss Monique, CAMELPHAT, Agents of Time, Solardo, Boris Brejcha, Anna Tur, Claptone and more all set to perform. 

SIGHT came to life in March 2017 with a Sunday party that brought something all new, groovy and fresh to Pacha Barcelona. It soon became one of the most acclaimed events in the city and now takes on a new challenge with its first residency outside of the Barcelona. It’s not the party's first time at Opium Beach Marbella as SIGHT hosted three different events last year with high class acts Jamie Jones, The Martinez Brothers and Michael Bibi.

The spectacular Opium Marbella is a beach club with an astonishingly well located stage just in front of the sea and a 3000-person capacity. Because it is located on the beachfront, Opium has spectacular views of the Mediterranean and a chic, minimalist design with a huge infinity pool, gorgeous terrace, Balinese beds and numerous VIP areas with a sophisticated atmosphere throughout. 

Say the people behind SIGHT, "The amount of effort that we put into this project is reflected in the events we throw. Our team loves what they do, the clients enjoy the result and the artists are always happy to be a part of such extraordinary experiences in which every detail is taken care of.Our main goal is to consolidate our SIGHT sessions both in Barcelona and Marbella so we are able to keep on working on tours, the residency sessions and make the brand known worldwide."

Each lineup this summer is a balancing act between headliners and upcoming artists with a real investment in local DJs to warm up the sessions. The party runs every Sunday and Wednesday with a fine mix of house, tech, prog and techno stars. Consistency is essential and next up on Wednesday 27th July are Marco Carola and Manu González and then Loco Dice and Folamour on July 31st. In August WhoMadeWho, Pablo Fierro, Mochakk, Hector Couto, Mathame, Miss Monique, Boris Brejcha, Anna Tur, Claptone, CAMELPHAT, Agents Of Time, Solardo, Viviana Casanova, Marco Carola and Chelina Manuhutu all play.
