MOGA was born in Essaouira (Morocco), which was named Mogador by the Portuguese hundreds of years ago. It is a boutique electronic music festival inspired by Atlantic vibes and providing an experience that connects people from all around the world through dance, music, art and wellness. Moga is also a tribe, a strong community of nomads sharing the same values and lifestyle spreading from Essaouira to Caparica and beyond.
This is the second edition of MOGA Caparica after a stunning debut last year. It took place in October as a replacement for Essaouira edition, which returns this year in October with MOGA Caparica moving to June to take full advantage of the summer weather.
This year will feature an extra beach party with two in all on Saturday. A festival pass includes access to the beach parties on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and as well as the spectacular dancing, you can enjoy free access to the OFF events happening throughout the five days such as music, art, wellness, talks, food and more.
The first wave of names includes Amine K – Morocco’s ambassador for electronic music who always brings happiness through his music, Ibiza favourites Audiofly, Istanbul’s fast rising Carlita, Dutch pair Dam Swindle bring their cross-sectional grooves, Dan Shake brings his warm and heartfelt house sounds and Folamour is part of the recent renaissance of young French house and disco producers with a deep love for all music. Then amongst others come much loved melodic house maestros Parallells. The pair are regulars on Agoria’s Sapiens label. Then comes Portuguese NTS favourite and Melodies International label co-founder Mafalda who plays a famously broad selection of love-fuelled house, soul, disco, Latin, funk and more plus the likes of Laurence Guy, Lola Villa, Madd Rod, Magupi, Shugi and YokoO.
The countdown has now begun to this superb cultural getaway on the gorgeous beaches of Portugal.
