INDIRA PAGANOTTO AND ARTCORE MAKE EGYPT DEBUT AT STARLIGHT FESTIVAL THIS OCTOBER
Psy-techno’s most influential contemporary movement, Artcore, will make its Egypt debut at the Great Pyramids of Giza during Starlight Festival
Artcore is heading to Egypt bringing Indira Paganotto, Charlie Sparks, BIIA, Paolo Ferrara, Valentinø, Reblok and Juno to the No Sleep Giza Stage on Friday, October 9th. The showcase follows sold-out Artcore events at Hï Ibiza and [UNVRS], and marks the collective's first appearance in Egypt. Starlight's main festival nights take place October 9th and 10th at the Great Pyramids of Giza, with Welcome and Farewell parties in Cairo on October 8th and 11th.
Indira Paganotto leads the showcase. The Spanish DJ and producer, ranked No. 36 in DJ Mag's 2025 Top 100 DJs poll, founded Artcore and holds a residency at Hï Ibiza, where she presents guest DJs across the label's roster. Her sets fuse techno and psytrance.
BIIA, one of Portugal's leading techno exports, is known for high-energy, peak-time sets that have taken her across major European festivals.
London-born Charlie Sparks has built a following in hard techno for a sound he describes as "hard and happy", a blend of acid, industrial techno, EDM and psytrance.
Italian DJ and producer Paolo Ferrara, founder of HEX and a longtime admirer of Egyptian culture has carved out a unique place within the hard techno scene through his blend of metal influences, industrial intensity and driving peak-time energy. His fearless approach has established him as one of the genre's most influential contemporary artists.
Completing the showcase are Valentinø, Artcore's Italian resident known for his dark and hypnotic industrial techno sets, and Reblok, one of the Balkan region's biggest electronic breakout artists. Reblok has reached the Beatport Hard Techno Top 10 multiple times, released music on Artcore, Filth On Acid and Verknipt, and earned support from leading names including Indira Paganotto, Reinier Zonneveld, Kobosil and I Hate Models.
Starting out on Belgrade's underground techno scene, Juno has rapidly established herself as one of electronic music's most promising new talents. The youngest artist in the Artcore showcase, her breakthrough year has included a standout set at the Artcore takeover during No Sleep Festival, a Tomorrowland debut, and performances at the ARTCORE residency at Hï Ibiza, where she became the youngest DJ ever to perform.
The Artcore showcase joins an already outstanding lineup, featuring Adriatique, Charlotte de Witte, Michael Bibi, Enrico Sangiuliano, Pete Tong, Vintage Culture, WhoMadeWho, Awen, Deer Jade, Fiona Kraft, Layla Benitez, Lanna and many more.
With the Great Pyramids of Giza as its backdrop, Starlight Festival in partnership with Visa is poised to become one of the world's most extraordinary music events. Produced by EXIT Festival and P+US, the electronic music platform of Venture Lifestyle, it will be the first-ever multi-stage electronic music festival held in this iconic setting, bringing together world-class artists, ancient history and contemporary culture in a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
