Headliners for the boat parties include Charlie Sparks, Yanamaste, DJ Hyperdrive & more

With just a couple of weeks to go until the first beats drop and kick off another unmissable summer session, Terminal V Croatia has unveiled the full boat party programme for its 2026 edition. This year, another exclusive series of intimate Adriatic sailings take place during the five-day festival in Tisno from 16-20 July with carefully curated line ups that will bring the vibes.  

These unique three-hour cruises have become a defining part of the Terminal V Croatia experience. They offer a whole different way to party with an ever changing backdrop away from the intense action of the main event which in 2026 welcomes more than 100 artists across five bespoke stages at The Garden Resort including AZYR, Ben Klock, Hannah Laing, Interplanetary Criminal, Len Faki, 999999999, Novah, Restricted and many more.

Each sea faring session one is a rare chance to get up close and personal with legends of the scene and party in an intimate setting while soaking in the scenery of the Dalmatian coast.  Departing directly from The Garden Resort and returning to the festival site, this year’s programme once again features standout takeovers from leading labels, promoters and collectives from across Europe and Australia.

The sure to sell out programme begins on Friday 17 July with Berlin-based techno platform BCCO hosting a sailing featuring Yanamaste and DJ Hyperdrive. Australian collective Novel brings Stüm and Lammer on board, while French crew 23:59 hosts a session led by Toxic Machinery

Saturday 18 July sees Scottish collective Disfunction join forces with Australian brand Dangerous Goods for a collaborative takeover featuring Ben Techy plus more. Elsewhere, Cadence, the imprint founded by Bella Claxton, welcomes Kyle Starkey and Wolters for an afternoon at sea.

Sunday's programme sees Belfast institution Shine welcome Clouds, Twofaced onboard, while Slovenian collective Hard Beats hosts Natte Visstick. Serbian promoter Music Reactions completes the day's sailings with a lineup featuring Franck and Alycia Bezgo.

The boat party series concludes on Monday 20 July with a collaborative sailing from Irish collective Slither, Rapid Trax and Agrio Club featuring Dart and Tjade. Later that day, Elektra and London's E1 close the programme with a showcase led by Charlie Sparks and Jokesonyou.

Alongside a series of afterparties at the renowned open-air venue Barbarella's, the annual boat parties always make for a core part of what makes Terminal V Croatia such a special five days.

GRYFFIN ANNOUNCES PART I OF UPCOMING 4TH STUDIO ALBUM ELEMENTS

Anticipated Single ‘Spin Me Slowly’ With Julia Church Out Now

Following “Ten Years of Music” Two-Night Kickoff At Cow Palace

Dance music powerhouse GRYFFIN today announces Part I of his highly anticipated fourth studio album ELEMENTS due out this Fall via 10K Projects. The announcement arrives alongside his long-awaited single ‘Spin Me Slowly’ with acclaimed vocalist Julia Church out now.

First premiered at Ultra Music Festival in 2025, ‘Spin Me Slowly’ is one of GRYFFIN’s most sought-after IDs. Equal parts uplifting and anthemic, the track captures the emotive songwriting and dynamic energy that’s become a throughline in GRYFFIN’s discography. ‘Spin Me Slowly’ soars with swooning melodies, rushing crescendos, and a heartwarming hook built for crowds to sing along. A propulsive entry in ELEMENTS, ‘Spin Me Slowly’ hints at the metaphysical themes that surround the project while embracing the momentum and force that make it a natural fit for the official Forza Horizon 6 soundtrack.

“When Julia flew to Red Rocks to perform ‘Never Letting Go’ with me in October 2024, it was her first time EVER in the US. And this legend arrived in Denver on a delayed flight from London to Uber straight to Red Rocks and 5 mins later found herself sound checking at the coolest venue in the world. She handled it like the pro that she is and didn’t flinch. Her suitcase was sitting on the stage…no joke. We’d never met, and she’d never performed or been to the US before, but we had this special song that both of us were so excited about. Months later she flew to Miami for Ultra to debut ‘Spin Me Slowly’.” – GRYFFIN

"Watching ‘Spin Me Slowly’ evolve into the song it is today has been incredibly special, and I’m so proud of what we created. Dan is unwavering in keeping the integrity of the songwriting close to his chest, and for that he is a true artist and someone I will always love working with. It’s surreal to think this song has already taken me to stages like Red Rocks, Ultra, and Lollapalooza Chicago. I can’t wait for everyone to finally hear it and hopefully love it as much as we do." – Julia Church

Due out this Fall, ELEMENTS arrives at a pivotal moment for GRYFFIN. While his “Ten Years of Music” concert series celebrates a decade of career-defining records, ELEMENTS looks ahead, introducing the next evolution of his sound and creative vision. The juxtaposition sits at the heart of this next chapter: a reflection on the journey that brought him here and a glimpse into where he’s headed next. The series kicked off over the weekend with two sold-out nights at Cow Palace in his Bay Area hometown, before continuing to Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and Red Rocks later this year.

Based in London by way of South Africa, Julia Church is one of dance music’s favorite singer-songwriters. Her vocal prowess has led to collaborations with John Summit, Armin Van Buuren, Sub Focus, and more. Church first linked with GRYFFIN in 2024 for ‘Never Letting Go’ with ALOK, later performing the collaboration live at Red Rocks. 

Stream GRYFFIN and Julia Church’s new single ‘Spin Me Slowly’ available now on all platforms.

EXIT AND P+US TO DEBUT STARLIGHT FESTIVAL AT THE PYRAMIDS OF GIZA THIS OCTOBER

Three-time European Best Major Festival winner EXIT is bringing its globally recognised festival experience to Egypt this October with the launch of Starlight Festival, a brand-new multi-day concept taking place from October 8th-11th near the Great Pyramids of Giza in partnership with Venture Lifestyle and its electronic music platform P+US.

Leading the lineup are Charlotte de Witte with an exclusive first-ever performance in Egypt, Michael Bibi bringing his sound to the pyramids for the very first time, and global melodic techno phenomenon Adriatique, returning to the iconic location after previously delivering a monumental show attended by nearly 10,000 people. The programme further brings together Vintage Culture, Pete Tong, WhoMadeWho and Enrico Sangiuliano, alongside dozens of regional and international artists. 

Set against the desert sands beside one of the world’s most significant symbols of ancient civilisation, Starlight will unite the global electronic music community within a setting shaped by thousands of years of history, while bringing together one of the strongest electronic lineups the region has seen to date.

As one of the key stops of EXIT’s expanding global tour, the festival’s main nights will take place on October 9 and 10 near the pyramids, while opening and closing events will unfold across selected locations throughout Cairo. Across more than five festival stages and zones, Starlight will also feature one of the world’s most advanced VR experiences, originally unveiled at Expo Dubai.

Starlight’s two main festival nights will be held on October 9 and 10 against the Great Pyramids of Giza, while the opening and closing events will unfold across selected locations throughout Cairo. Across more than five festival stages and zones, Starlight will also feature one of the world’s most advanced VR experiences, originally unveiled at Expo Dubai. As with other events held in the area, Starlight will not be staged directly at the pyramids, which will serve as a monumental backdrop from a specially designated location developed in accordance with the site’s historical importance and protected status. 

Dušan Kovačević, founder and CEO of EXIT Festival, said: “It is a great honour to be invited to bring the premium festival concept near one of the grandest monuments in human history. EXIT has always been known for combining world-class entertainment with a strong social mission, which in this case will be dedicated to celebrating Egypt’s extraordinary cultural heritage to a global audience. We are especially pleased to have Venture Lifestyle as our partner on this project, given their reputation for delivering exceptional events in the region.”

Highlighting the growing importance of music tourism whose total value is over $100 billion globally, Rabih Mokbel, founder and CEO of Venture Lifestyle and its platform P+US, added: “It’s an honour for us at Venture Lifestyle to co-create Starlight alongside EXIT, a festival that has shaped the European scene for more than two decades. Bringing this legacy together in Egypt represents a major milestone for the region. We believe our collaboration will introduce a new generation of festival experiences and set a new benchmark for entertainment across MENA. Working hand-in-hand with EXIT’s team, we expect Starlight to attract a significant number of international visitors and contribute tens of millions of dollars to Egypt’s tourism economy, while establishing a long-term platform for cultural exchange between Europe and the Middle East.”

Venture Lifestyle (VLS) is an Emirati-Lebanese entertainment and hospitality company based in Egypt, recognised for producing large-scale cultural, nightlife and live entertainment experiences across the Middle East and beyond. Through its electronic music platform P+US, the company has delivered globally recognised projects, including Anyma’s Quantum Genesys at the Great Pyramids of Giza, positioning itself among the region’s leading innovators in experiential entertainment. 

Tickets are available through the official Starlight Festival website.
