Tickets have been flying off the shelves for Winter Fantasy ever since they went on sale just a few weeks ago. With ground-breaking artist deadmau5 (unhooked) headlining the evening with his popular, yet rarely performed “Unhooked Set,” thousands upon thousands of fans from all over Texas and Mexico will be making their way to the third annual event.

Joining the pioneering mau5 will be Adventure Club, Showtek, Le Castle Vania and Nom De Strip for a night of unbeatable energy. Get ready to get a little unhinged this holiday season with Disco Donnie Presents, Global Groove Events and Sugar Society and join us outdoors at the State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, TX this Monday, December 30th.

For your safety, capacity for this winter wonderland is very limited and prices will only increase as the months of November and December continue on. Don’t miss out on the event that all of your friends will be talking about. Be sure to grab your tickets early to secure your spot on the dance floor and save big.

Those who already live in the RGV area can take advantage of not having to pay for online service fees on tickets by visiting the State Farm Arena box office, Hermes Music Stores, located in both McAllen and Brownsville, or, one of 60 official Winter Fantasy street team members ready to meet with you.

With multiple ways to grab passes for Winter Fantasy, there’s no reason to miss out on this event!

The third annual Winter Fantasy is poised to bring renowned talent like deadmau5, Adventure Club, Showtek, Le Castle Vania and Nom de Strip to the State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, TX on Monday, December 30th. With several weeks remaining until the gates open for the anticipated event, we have plenty of time to stay up-to-date with our talented lineup.

For Winter Fantasy’s first Drop, we’ve got the brothers Showtek taking the UK charts by storm and electro maven Nom de Strip is gearing up to do some damage control across North America.

Showtek enters the UK Top 40 Chart at #5

Though Dutch brothers Showtek have since ventured away from their original hardstyle roots, the boys are still mesmerizing fans with their impressive ability to blend all types of genres into a unique listening experience. Their track “Booyah,” released on Spinnin Records on August 19th, is the perfect example of this, sporting a reggae-infused big room track.

Moving from the standard four-to-the-floor to a half-time beat intro, “Booyah” has some massive stab synths that are later joined by the vocals of We Are Loud! and Sonny Wilson. After your ears become adjusted to the big room feel, the track then leaps to drum and bass, incorporating some fast-paced snares and hi-hats to the mix. Resonating that old school rave energy, this track is festival ready and has been powering through the boys’ sets all summer.

Still high off the success from its initial release, “Booyah” has just entered the UK’s Top 40 chart at #5. Sandwiched between artists like Katy Perry, OneRepublic and Lorde, we’re excited to see Showtek’s name listed with some of the world’s hottest acts right now.

Currently traipsing across Europe on tour, we hope to hear “Booyah” when Showtek make their way to Hidalgo for Winter Fantasy on Monday, December 30th.

Nom De Strip joins Mat Zo on Damage Control Tour

L.A. based artist Nom De Strip has had an amazing year – and it’s not even over yet! Having been signed to Chris Lake’s imprint Rising Music at the beginning of 2013, the Scotland native has put out a stellar amount originals, remixes and collaborations with tracks like “Nippleodeon,” “Devil’s BBQ” and “Techno Saturday.” Getting ready to release “Minerals” with Congorock later this month, Nom De Strip has just been added to Mat Zo’s Damage Control bus tour.

In celebration of his anticipated debut artist album Damage Control out November 5th, British DJ and Producer Mat Zo will be joined by an all-star support line-up with Norin & Rad, Treasure Fingers, Nom De Strip and Matt Lange for the upcoming tour. Mat says, “I wanted acts that could deliver variety but with their own unique styles. Each of the acts that will be joining me is known for individuality and doing things on their own terms rather than just following the status quo.”

Causing damage across North America this fall, we’re excited to welcome Nom De Strip to the third annual Winter Fantasy at the State Farm Arena this forthcoming Monday, December 30th.
