Nov 16 2020 Share

The term ‘music festival’ has become somewhat mystical and unreachable in a world affected by COVID-19 but a COVID-free city in Taiwan has made us hopeful for the future. 

Road to Ultra Music Festival in Taipei, Taiwan welcomed international DJs from across the globe with the likes of Alesso and Slander headlining after having quarantined for 14 days.
