Surreal Park, one of the world’s biggest nightlife destinations with a 135,000m² clubbing complex, will host three simultaneous stages curated by Defected, D EDGE and We Are Lost this April
Set inside one of the world’s largest clubbing spaces, Surreal Park based in Camboriú, Santa Catarina (Brazil), an open-air environment that lets audiences move between multiple stages, outdoor areas and distinct worlds in a single night.
On April 3rd Surreal Park returns with Soul Festival, the fourth edition of its annual in-house festival concept. Designed as a celebration of what truly moves a dancefloor – identity, heritage and connection – the event unfolds across three simultaneous stages, Ritual, Bells and Nomad, each curated by a globally recognised institution within club culture.
Ritual by Defected – House music, in its living form
Surreal Park’s main stage welcomes Defected, one of the most influential and enduring names in global House music.
A defining moment will be Carl Craig b2b Moodymann, a rare meeting of two foundational Detroit figures whose shared roots shaped the DNA of modern House and Techno. Also confirmed is KiNK (live), celebrated for unpredictable, fully organic performances, with appearances in Brazil notably rare. Mochakk makes his long-awaited Surreal Park debut, arriving as one of Brazil’s most internationally in-demand artists. Ratier, Surreal Park’s host and creative force, joins the lineup with nearly 30 years of career and an influential presence across House and Techno.
Bells by D EDGE – Techno at full pressure
Curated by São Paulo institution D EDGE, with over 25 years of continuous history shaping Brazil’s electronic scene, Bells delivers hypnotic, straight-to-the-point Techno.
Headlining is Len Faki, historic Berghain resident and one of the genre’s most respected figures, known for precise, high-energy sets. Also on the stage: Mila Journee, Aninha, plus one additional artist to be announced.
Nomad by We Are Lost – Progressive storytelling and long-form immersion
The festival’s third axis arrives via Nomad by We Are Lost, marking the first time the We Are Lost festival concept lands in Brazil. Led by Guy J, the brand is known for narrative flow, emotional tension and long-form immersion. This will be Guy J’s fourth appearance at Surreal Park, continuing a relationship defined by consistently packed floors.
He is joined by Sasha, a true icon of Progressive House and a central figure in the genre since the 1990s, alongside Sahar Z and Surreal Park resident Teclas.
A festival built for a venue of global scale
Soul Festival is designed specifically for the scale of Surreal Park’s 135,000m² complex, allowing audiences to move fluidly between House, Techno and Progressive, while experiencing the venue’s open-air atmosphere, wide outdoor spaces and multi-stage layout. The result is a night that feels both personal and massive: three curated rooms, one destination, and a crowd building its own journey across the site.
Soul Festival takes place on April 3rd at Surreal Park in Camboriú, Santa Catarina, Brazil. Early tickets are available through the official platforms via the Surreal Park website. Further information, set times and updates will be announced through Surreal Park’s official channels.
