Organisers are really excited to announce the second installment of the Mahico Festival at the home of the Blues Festival, The Green Room, on Saturday, June 8, over the King’s birthday long weekend.

Mahico is a world electronic music festival celebrating cultures around the globe. Creating experiences of connection through music, art and food. Headlining the festival are two of the pioneers of the folktronica sound, Chancha Via Circuito and Barrio Lindo, hailing from the distant lands of Argentina. Mahico is also very excited and humbled to be touring and hosting two of South America’s most prolific and well-known downtempo music producers, bringing their magic to the Northern Rivers for a 10-hour music extravaganza.

In support they have none other than local legend and Mahico mainstay Moontide (live), an amigo who has been making waves in New Zealand for the past decade; Mia Kober, Isu Taki creator hailing from Chile; Ototongo; and Mahico curator and resident Xuja.
