It marks Yu Su's first time running an event in China, kicking off on September 29 and concluding on October 3. It follows a recent string of performances all across the US and Europe.
Yu Su has teamed up with DJ and Elevator Club cofounder Mau Mau, Chinese producer Knopha, and multidisciplinary artist Youpo on the festival's curation, promotion and creative direction.
OUHE will take place at a former Shanghai abattoir, Slaughterhouse 1933, a brutalist building which has been transformed into a shopping mall, theatre and entertainment complex whilst maintaining the building’s art deco columns and structure.
