We are happy to announce a new date on the Italian soul scene. With some top italian and international DJs at the console, the weekender will be held right in the middle of Tuscany, in the magnificent setting of Borgo Giusto (http://borgogiusto.com/), a group of charming and picturesque houses designed to host guests in the heart of the Garfagnana area. Equipped with a beautiful swimming pool, a typical local restaurant and a Spa, this little village from the ‘600s was completely restored and re-invented as a country retreat. So we offer not only a Weekender, but a relaxing vacation in the sunny Tuscan countryside.
