The sky will become a myriad of colour thanks to the 150,000 colour bags which are distributed at entry to the event. These clinically tested bags are filled with a colourful dust that is made of rice flour, is safe for human contact and not damaging to the environment.
Stay tuned for announcements of full musical line ups.
A portion of the proceeds will be given to ‘The Smile of the Child‘, a non-profit voluntary organisation focused on children’s rights.
