Sumol Summer Fest press conference took place recently at Boardriders Quiksilver Ericeira, where the news of the music festival – which on the 1st and 2nd of July will return to the Ericeira Camping car park and the skate park of the store that hosted this presentation – were revealed.
After two years of forced absence, the uncertainty has now been replaced by the anxiety of waiting for the celebration of Summer, the beach and friends. Under the motto “IT IS WHAT YOU ARE”, the Festival is once again betting on the recipe for success: the best music in the best environment and with the beach right next to it, to set the tone for the beginning of Summer!
this year there will be more stages (one of them with dancing) at the festival
Accompanying the music that is part of everyday life, hip hop remains a strong bet in the 12th edition of Sumol Summer Fest, both nationally and internationally. Confirming it, the poster features names like Burna Boy, Trippie Redd, IAMDDB, and the Portuguese artist Piruka, NENNY, T-Rex, Lon3r Johny, Phoenix RDC and Mobbers. Each night of the Festival ends with a party, with DJ sets by RIOT and the Brazilian RDD.
With this return, the unique and exclusive moment, created for each edition of the Festival, is also back. In the 12th edition, this moment is materialized in the show entitled EIXO NORTE-SUL. A concert that will show, on Sumol Stage, the best that is being done in urban music from North to South of the country. Leading the North team will be rapper Mundo Segundo, whose team will feature MCs Maze, Ace, Deau and Virtus, and DJs Guze and Spot. Representing the South, we will have the leader XEG, who will take the stage accompanied by MCs Chullage, Sir Scratch, Kappa Jotta, Deezy and DJ Big. You cannot miss out!
All of this will take place on the Sumol Stage, but the schedule for this long-awaited return to Sumol Summer Fest doesn’t end there.
The Quiksilver Stage is back curated by MEDIAsounds. The Quiksilver Boardriders Skate Park is a unique park in Portugal, due to its location by the sea, bringing together the spirit of surfing and skateboarding in one space. For the 5th consecutive edition, this space is associated with Sumol Summer Fest to offer us a program that privileges music but also, of course, skateboarding.
The performances by Cíntia and RUSSA, as well as the DJ sets by Flaca, Mike El Nite, Shaka Lion and Von Di, are curated by MEDIAsounds for the Quiksilver stage at Sumol Summer Fest. From hip hop to reggaeton, from afrobeat to soul, never has a skate competition had such an eclectic soundtrack!
And this year, music and dance come together! Seven years after its first edition, Jazzy Dance Camp, an initiative of Jazzy Dance Studios, comes to Ericeira and joins one of the most emblematic Portuguese Summer festivals. The Sumol Summer Fest music lineup is thus joined by a lineup and a dance stage located at the Festival Camping, which meets the favorite rhythms of the thousands of festival-goers who, for two days, will make Ericeira Camping atmosphere even more magical.
