New Destination EDM Festival ‘Sol Seeker’ Arrives in St. Thomas US Virgin Islands

The Sol Seeker Festival is set to debut this Memorial Day in the US Virgin Islands of the Caribbean, with the first phase of its lineup just announced.

As the world bounces back from the coronavirus pandemic, the electronic dance community is also playing its part in helping the world recover. In this spirit, the US Virgin Islands will be hosting a new destination music festival this Spring. Sol Seeker is set to premiere over Memorial Day this May and the first phase of its lineup has now been revealed.

As of now, the roster comprises Alan Walker, Afrojack, Deorro, KSHMR, Charly Jordan and Kim Lee. A massive pull just from these names alone, Sol Seeker will soon put out more details and unveil its full lineup. Tickets for the three-day festival are now available here. 

From May 26-28, the St. Thomas gateway isle of the US Virgin Islands will welcome EDM fans from all over the world for the inaugural Sol Seeker Festival. Set to take place at the Yacht Haven Grade, the weekend-long party will feature a high-production stage surrounded by yachts and cruise ships. Attendees will also have the opportunity to enjoy the open waters on yacht charters.
