Bang On! Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire?! There's This Incredible Festival Going Down in Brooklyn This Saturday-- You Down?

Shpongle (Simon Posford), Paper Diamond, XXYYXX, Nora En Pure, and Liquid Stranger top the lineup for this year's Elements Outdoor Music & Art Festival, presented by BangOn! 

It's going down once again on August 22nd from 1 p.m to 10 p.m. in the South Red Hook Grain Elevator at GBX Gowanus Bay Terminal.

We're especially excited for Simon Posford's set. It's true, a Posford DJ set isn't the same as other Shpongle experiences, but it is definitely one of the best sets to explore a Goa Trance flavored dream. 

If you've never been, you should know it's a wilder party than you might expect.

The festival is uniquely arranged on four different stages thematically organized by the natural elements Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire. 

There will be incredible "large-scale themed art installations, 3D projection mapping, death-defying aerial performances, magnificent art cars, decadent food trucks, exotic clothing/jewelry vendors, rides, slides, circus performances, and an entire new world to experience."

Sounds a little too amazing, right? Not even a little bit. Count us in!

In past years, Elements has gained acclaim both for booking a bunch of great artists, and their emphasis on developing the atmosphere in a better/crazier/more creative way than your usual one-day festival. 

It's hedonism for your senses with great music, wild visuals on art installations with bonkers performances, and way more rolled into a little community.
