Meet Pagoda Stage Director Rob Campbell
Step into the cosmic realm of The Pagoda Stage, your first stage offering as you enter downtown Shambhala.
As the stage director, my mission for 2024 is simple: to unleash a whirlwind of sonic delight that pays tribute to Shambhala's illustrious past while launching us into an exhilarating future. The Pagoda isn't just a stage; it's a sanctuary where music aficionados come to lose themselves in a symphony of sound and find themselves in the embrace of the Shambhala community. We’ve seen the Pagoda transform into almost anything you can imagine. Mystikal creatures, Gothic temples, spirits, and animals. We have even seen it change into a hamburger. Pagoda is setting the bar for dance music's future and past.
Friday
Friday night starts with a bang as we welcome back familiar faces and raise the roof with special B2B sets. Justin Martin and Chris Lorenzo are two legends of the Shambhala stage. And if that's not enough, brace yourself for the dynamic duo of Destructo and Dr. Fresch as they tag-team their way into your heart and test the fidelity of the PK Bassbins. It's a night of reunions, revelations, and relentless beats that'll leave you craving more.
Saturday
We welcome Disclosure, with Guy at the helm, spinning tracks that'll make your soul soar and your feet move in ways you never thought possible. Don't miss the infectious groove of Disco Lines as he brings his unique original stutter house sound to the dance floor. And to top it all off, prepare for a special B2B set with "Desert Hearts" Mikey Lion and the Pagoda's own DJ Soup, as we take you on a journey through beats and beyond.
Sunday
From the ethereal sounds of Zingara to the hypnotic beats of CloZee, it's a night of sonic exploration that'll stay with you long after the music fades. And of course, no Shambhala celebration would be complete without a special set from the one and only KOAN Sound, wrapping up the weekend with a flourish of mind-bending beats and euphoric energy.
Thank you for joining us at The Pagoda Stage for Shambhala's 25th Anniversary. We hope you've enjoyed the ride as much as we have, and that the memories we've created together will keep you dancing through the days and dreaming through the nights. Keep the magic alive by following us on social media and diving into our curated playlist, a treasure trove of tracks from the artists who graced our stage. Until we meet on the dancefloor, keep shining bright, keep spreading love, and keep dancing like nobody's watching.
