The concept
• We define our festival experience through attention to details and respect for the community.
• SUNWAVES emerged as a counter-offer to what festivals offered in 2007, with no interest in fireworks, crazy lights, smoke machines, and mainstream music.
• The idea of the festival was to create a community that is connected through electronic music and respect.
• The festival brought some particular elements that today other festivals are implementing as well, but SUNWAVES was the pioneer.
• SUNWAVES is the first and biggest biannual music festival in Romania, that goes for 6 days and 6 nights.
• It’s the first festival that created a standard for sound quality. Funktion One has become the preferred sound system in electronic music events all over Romania thanks to SUNWAVES.
• It’s the first festival that used visuals to highlight the music and used projection panels and 3d cut-outs to create a visual story for each stage in particular.
• It’s the type of festival that wants to create a unique setup for the crowd and having the DJ booth decorated with flowers and the tents made with different materials that make the whole vibe friendlier.
• It’s the first that built a wooden tent and transformed it into the trademark of the festival.
