As the global electronic festival scene continues to grow exponentially, exotic and international destination events are hot commodities and highly sought after by music lovers. Amongst the seemingly endless list of international festivals, the second episode of the Oasis Festival hosted in the alluring backdrop of Marrakech, Morocco from September 16 – 18 is one that particularly strikes the curious music eye due to many unique characteristics, not to mention one of the hottest lineups in the electronic scene.
After launching in 2015 as what some referred to as Morocco’s “first festival of its kind,” Oasis Festival received delightful praises of its friendly vibes, quality sounds and picturesque desert backdrop. the second installment of the Moroccan odyssey is anticipated to be one of the most exciting festivals of the year.
Below are the top 5 reasons why we are monitoring this new addition to the growing list of destination music festivals with keen ears and eyes:

By attending Oasis Festival, you can experience a weekend of top notch sounds then spend the time before or after to really take in the destination. Of course, there’s always the option of making a full blown vacation out of the trip and bounce around to other surrounding countries.
- The Source Music Resort: Switching its location from the Fellah Hotel for the festival launch last year to the Source Hotel this year, the venue is absolutely breathtaking with suites, villas, a stunning outdoor pool, plus, serves as a true music arena considering the hotel’s partnership with multiple live music events.
- Intimacy: Though large scale events hosting hundreds of thousands of attendees are highly sought after by the electronic masses, quality and intimacy are winning qualities for those festival-goers who are seeking more authentic and genuine experiences. The Oasis Festival will host roughly a few thousand attendees making for a truly special weekend with old and new friends from around the globe.
