Shi Fu Miz delivers a helping of hope by adding more artists to the bill
The line-up for the October edition is almost complete
As more and more countries and clubs around Asia continue to open, the situation is looking — dare we say it — hopeful. And Shi Fi Miz seems to think so too.
Today the festival has revealed another round of line-up additions, nearly completing the line-up. Lauren Hansom, La Mamie’s, Jamie Tiller and CYK are some of the names announced today, and they join a first round of acts that includes Move D, Roman Flügel, Licaxxx and more. See the additions below:
Shi Fu Miz looks to be Hong Kong's only festival this year, and it stands a good chance right now. Hong Kong has kept manage to contain its COVID-19 outbreak, and its done so without a strict lockdown. Considering the event runs October 30 — November 1, there is still plenty of time for the situation to improve further.
The annual event takes place just a quick boat ride away from Hong Kong’s harbourfront in the grasses of Sai Yuen Farm on Cheung Chau Island, which also boasts idyllic golden sand beaches. This will be the sixth edition of Shi Fu Miz, which is a joint venture by Parisian collective La Mamie’s and Hong Kong-based creative agency Fufu.
Over the years, the event has become synonymous with eclectic and forward-thinking artists who push the boundaries of electronic music in a mystical setting that evokes feelings of inclusivity and freedom. Last year saw more than 2,000 festival descend upon the grounds despite months of protest unfurling in Hong Kong. A Boiler Room takeover gave people hope that Hong Kong still has some life left in it, and that couldn’t be more true for this year.
