“Almost two years since our last event, Celtronic’s ethos remains the same: a celebration of dance music culture that is focussed not on profit but on showcasing the biggest, most relevant names in electronic music in relatively intimate spaces alongside the best local and national artists. We will be reducing the capacity and increasing the production values to ensure the best possible experience for everyone. We’re looking forward to welcoming everyone back and start the task of rebuilding the confidence not only of those that attend Celtronic but also of the artists and crew that perform and work at our events.”
