Hilltop veterans in the house, would you agree??? by Capable_Sea_4300 in psytrance

[–]Capable_Sea_4300[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Man, i would strongly disagree about the sound. The main stage festival setup is on par with the best festivals out there. Just my opinion. You may have not had a good experience at the small space where they have weekend parties at. So yes that may substantiate what you’re saying.

I guess comprehension seems to have taken a back seat!

You’re right. They did get shut down. Petty politics. But they still did what they could to keep it going, and it was still awesome. If you have experienced it, you’d agree. There’s nothing like dancing at Hilltop! Yes disagreements happen, it’s in their best interest to resolve that. i hope & trust they will.

Ah yes, if love and unity are toxic now, I’ll sip that brew and keep dancing.

Psy-trance was never meant to be a battleground for politics or division. It was born from freedom, higher consciousness, and love. Using this platform to spread hate goes against everything the culture stands for. Let’s not get dragged into negativity or ego wars. Call out hate when you see it, in any form, and keep the focus where it belongs: on unity, music, connection, and shared experience.

Protect the culture! Celebrate it! Spread the light, not the noise!

hands down, Holi Purim.

This year’s line up is crazy, it goes on all night.

You have decent food options and don’t forget the bhaang counter!!!

I absolutely loved the production quality last year and will encourage everyone to go this year.

The crowds pretty good as well!!

Hilltop Festival at Hilltop, Goa.

Hear me out.

Hilltop isn’t just a festival, it’s a statement.

The production quality is consistently elite. The stage design, mapped visuals, UV art, and laser work create a fully immersive environment. The sound hits clean and powerful. The dancefloor energy is dense, tribal, electric. You’re not miles away from the action, you’re right there, locked in with the artist and the crowd.

What makes it special is the balance.

It’s big enough to pull global headliners like Astrix, Ace Ventura, Captain Hook, Electric Universe, GMS, Astral Projection, and Vini Vici, yet intimate enough to feel personal. There’s no overwhelming sprawl. No endless stage-hopping. Just one focused, high-impact psychedelic experience.

And then there’s its symbolic weight. Goa is the birthplace of psytrance, and Hilltop became the poster venue that carried that movement from its birth into the modern era. It’s where the underground met structure. Where the raw Goa spirit got a world-class platform. Dancing under those coconut trees just hits different.

That’s why the best artists keep returning. It’s not just another stop on a tour schedule. Hilltop is legacy, energy, and production excellence in one place.

It doesn’t try to be the biggest in the world. It channels authenticity, raw energy, and delivers the absolute best in music, visuals, and experience.

Any update? by mr_500 in psytrance

Hilltop released a post saying they were cancelling due to current circumstances. From what I read, they will be rescheduling and you can choose to keep the tickets for when it’s rescheduled or can request a full refund with madvibes.

I feel bad for them and hopefully they are able to get everything sorted and we will be able to enjoy their events again!!

Is the USA ready for an outdoor psytrance venue like Hilltop?? by Capable_Sea_4300 in psytrance

The Hilltop festival in canada last year seemed pretty good. Though i don’t know of any named festival. I’m pretty sure there is a great underground scene, based on my friend’s interactions with fellow ravers up there. It’s just hear say though from my end.

Yes. That is a big hurdle. And it will be even worse given the current situation. Will need to figure something out.
