kazantip

Kazantip (http://www.kazantip.com) is an electronic dance music festival held every year, and the main reason fo tourists to arrive to the area. The entrance ticket is called a "viZa". It takes place during 25.7-26.8 in the year 2009. More than 150,000 "paradiZers" visit each year. There is a cult of orange colored fashion and yellow suitcases associated with the festival. With over 300 DJs on more than 14 dance floors which play 21 hours per day, it is easily the biggest happening on the electronic music scene in the world, shunning even the notorious fullmoon festivals held every month in Koh-pang Nga in Thailand. The scale of the party is so immense that the nearby town of popovka where the festival is actually located, some 15-minute drive from Evpatoria basically earns its living out of it, not surprising since the amount of ravers or "paradiZers" supercedes the local population by a factor anywhere between 100 and 500)
