Secretsundaze (Giles Smith & James Priestley) return to Barcelona for two events, with a party at the never before used open air venue Parc Del Forum Beach and another at La Terrrazza’s open air terrace. The duo’s parties continue to dominate the UK club scene (this year celebrating their 15th anniversary) and their annual Off Week parties are always one of the highlights of the season. This year, Secretsundaze bring some of the best party guests to town, including Marcellus Pittman, Leon Vynehall, Hunee, Palms Trax, Ryan Elliott and Shanti Celeste to name just a few. And of course it wouldn’t be a Secretsundaze without a set from the founders themselves.
