World, meet Vertigo – the latest European festival to spring into life, and purportedly the “highest altitude summer electronic music festival” in the game. 

Vertigo will take place deep in Italy’s Alpine region this August, and promises an intimate experience at the 1500m high Ski Jumping Hotel in Pragelato. The festival is intimate, with space available for 4000 people, but the views promise to be sweeping.

Musically, the festival is centred around label showcases, with a range of DJs and live performances on the cards. Berlin’s Get Physical crew will be in full effect, bringing along M.A.N.D.Y, DJ T, Smash TV, and Betoko. Switzerland’s Cadenza Records will be represented by the likes of Reboot and UNER, whereas Cuprit LA will offer up Droog, M.A.N.I.K and more. Other labels and promoters include Art Of Dark, Sankeys, Departure, Solid Grooves, Troupe, Virunga and Panoptic.

Vertigo runs from August 15-17. Further details are available here.
