Parisian trifecta, Apollonia are now counting down a handful of days until the debut show of their new Planet Claire concept. The first of ten events takes places in Octan Ibiza's Lab room this coming Sunday 28 July. Now the line-ups are out.
Apollonia have made the extended set format their signature. Giving their sets time to breathe and really lock in the groove, they rarely play less than three hours. At their best, they get allocated four to six, and that's what they've given themselves for both the opening and closing.
Bookending the ten-week campaign, the trio play back-to-back-to-back all night long on 28 July and 29 September. If these two shows weren't unmissable enough, they've certainly given Apollonia fans lots to ponder.
Between those two epic parties, Dan Ghenacia, Dyed Soundorom and Shonky invite a raft of friends to join them. Throughout August, the pick of the names includes Uruguayan selector Nicolas Lutz (18 August) and Hessel Audio's Pearson Sound (25 August).
Though we cannot stress enough that the cosmic beats of Berlin-based Gene On Earth is worthy of discovery on 4 August, alongside Edward.
In September, Traumer b2b Cristi Cons, Francesco del Garda and Anthea are all highlights. Other names appearing during the series include Robin Ordell, Doc Martin, Brawther and the legendary Mark E Quark.
It's worth remembering that Planet Claire shares the first four Sundays with Steve Lawler's Warriors. Names playing in the basement across these shows include Yousef, Joey Daniel, Leon, Cassy, East End Dubs, Lauren Lo Sung, Rich Nxt, Anëk and many more.
As things stand, only the 22 September date remains a mystery. Given the weight of the all the other nine dates, we are confident it will be equally as stacked.
Planet Claire kicks off this Sunday. To be a part of the six-hour adventure, head here for tickets to the opening four dates. The remaining six dates can be purchased below.
