Kala Festival has just announced some big names in electronic music for its 2022 edition in Albania.

Following a two year hiatus, the festival is making a return to the beaches of the Albanian Riviera for its 2022 edition - including "a carefully curated selection of DJs and live acts takes cues from the heyday of 'Balearic Beat' and spans a wide range of genres and decades connected by spirit, rather than genre."

There will be DJ sets from some of the biggest names who are shaping dance and club music as we know it, including Lakuti, Jamz Supernova, Paramida, Parris, Heléna Star and Heels & Souls.

Juan Lopez, Head of Marketing says: “Kala’s intimate atmosphere lends itself to be the perfect place to connect with people and it has become a bit of a family reunion over the years. We have definitely missed this during these past two years and we look forward to welcoming old and new friends to the stunning beaches of Dhërmi this June.

"We are very proud of the line-up, there are a few names in there we have been trying to invite for a long time and we cannot wait to enjoy another magical week of music by the sea. Oh, and we have a few more surprises up our sleeve that will be announced soon!”
