🎭🔊 Psytrance meets Techno in a masked ritual of rhythm and rebellion. Founder of Terrestrial Events. 🌐🔥
A brief one-sentence summary or tagline for the artist.
Mana Fest is an Australian DJ and event curator known for blending Psytrance, Techno, and experimental genres into immersive sonic journeys. Emerging during the pandemic lockdown, his musical path was born from introspection and a desire to connect through rhythm. For Mana Fest, music is more than performance — it’s a spiritual calling and a tool for transformation.
In 2022 and 2023, he performed at Esoteric Festival, captivating audiences with high-energy sets that fused mysticism and dancefloor intensity. In 2025, he is slated to debut on the Sun Temple stage, marking a new chapter in his festival trajectory. Mana Fest has shared stages with international artists including Jacob (Brazil), Matan Caspi (Israel), Kander (UK), and Amrtum (Berlin), reflecting his global reach and collaborative ethos.
He is affiliated with crews such as Pirainia and Sickest House Mafia, and in 2024, he founded Terrestrial Events, an event company focused on fair DJ support and social impact. The company partners with organizations like White Ribbon Australia to promote equity and awareness through music-driven initiatives.
Mana Fest is also a dedicated volunteer in the doof and festival scene, often helping build stages and infrastructure. His signature mask — worn during performances — serves as both a symbol of artistic identity and a boundary-blurring persona that merges artist and art.
