One winter's night high up on the cliff tops a group of elves and gnomes discovered that under the moonlight they could conjure up the "rave gods" of old. So, with heor magic options they danced until the sun came up..
Mid Winter...

...a time to celebrate we say! This year Massive have again secured the gun emplacements on the cliff tops of Godley Head. After last year's sell out event and t-shirt weather we are expecting another night of fun and games.

Set in and around the WW2 bunkers, there will be four zones with Subtle Promotions running the Tech Dub Drum and Bass Tent, Oscillations running computerfunk and ambient zones and Massive taking care of the main zone.

The event is the eighth Winter Soulstice outdoor party that Massive Productions has organised. Starting in 1998 at Godley Head the party has now become one of the few remaining and longest running outdoor dance parties in Canterbury.

This venue would have to be one of the most spectacular in New Zealand, with the sunrise coming up over the Pacific Ocean. And you won't get cold. We have an indoor heated café and a bonfire.
Tickets

Tickets are $30 and available from Hunters and Collectors on High Street and Static Records on Poplar Lane. Gate sales will be $40. We are limited to 400 people so get in early to avoid disappointment.

It will be a great party with you there. Please read the following to fully enjoy the party. We have to get a little serious here, so bear with us.

* This is a no alcohol event. Please respect this.
* If you choose to take other highs, please respect their potency and possible side effects.
* We will not tolerate or be held liable for any foolishness.
* We are not responsible for you outside the bunker area.
* We have worked with DOC for six years and we wish to carry on using this area for future events. Please be responsible.
* This is a potentially dangerous area. Beware of holes, steep drops and slippery stairs and paths.
* Bring warm, water proof clothes and footwear.
* Bring water and food. Coffee and food are available.
* Please don't litter.
* Drive safely. It is a narrow road.

If you need directions, easiest way is head to Sumner, keep going through and up Evans Pass Rd. At the top turn left onto Summit Rd and continue to the end.

Have a great night and stay for the sunrise.
