[Event Review] Anjunadeep And AREA15 Illuminated Las Vegas
For Open Air Show
An extra hot summer day calls for an extra hot summer party. Thus, Anjunadeep delivered a celestial event in the Nevada desert for its 2024 series of Open Air shows. This past Friday, the Anjunadeep label, led by Above & Beyond, landed at the state-of-the-art, psychedelic venue AREA15 to showcase its lineup of Deep House royals.
But First, Happy Hour!
Getting to the venue early paid off extremely well. From VR games, to stunning exhibits, including Meow Wolf, Friday was up to a good start. But then, the fun began, as Luttrell presented us with an amazing surprise 2-hour happy hour set. The pre-show was held right at the entrance of AREA15 and it was free to the public. This warm-up led to what would be a magical night in the A-Lot space of the venue.

Now, The Open Air
The A-Lot is one of the 3 spaces in AREA15 that hosts incredible events. Other artists that have graced this stage in the last year include Charlotte de Witte, Dombresky, Ganja White Night, and Boris Brejcha. This time, Anjunadeep brought their Deep House wizards to charm the summer winds in the atmosphere. The lineup included Nicky Elizabeth, Durante, Joseph Ray, Eli & Fur, and a special Dosem b2b Luttrell set. The Anjuna family came strong with its vibes, overcoming the hot temperatures. The lot kept cool with massive fans that also sprayed refreshing mist into the attendees. Production-wise we enjoyed beautiful visuals and quality lighting that resonated with the soulful melodies we heard into the late night. The production was completed with some chill areas, a set-up swing and Anjuna merch. Sadly, due to the worldwide glitch in the matrix that affected a lot of software, Marsh couldn’t make it to Vegas for his set. However, each act delivered a stunning, emotional time that brought smiles to each member of the audience.

In a world that feels like it going 190 miles an hour, it was nice to have a night that slowed it down so we could appreciate the night, with each other, with great music. We can’t wait to go back to AREA15 and enjoy some quality time. As for the label itself, they’re continuing with more Open Air shows for the rest of the year. Some cities include London, Budapest, Seattle, and Mexico City.
