ABOUT

EUROPE'S #1 HIP-HOP BEACH FESTIVAL

Launched in 2012, New Yorker Fresh Island Festival immediately established itself as one of Europe’s top summer getaways for those who want to enjoy a fusion of both warm weather activities and exclusive hip-hop and r&b concerts. New Yorker Fresh Island takes place on the beautiful Zrce Beach located on the island of Pag. Just off the coast of Croatia, it is one of the world's top travel destinations for youth. A destination that boasts white sandy beaches, palm trees, crystal clear waters, outdoor nightlife, after beach and pool parties, attracting 500,000 tourists from over 80 countries each year. The island offers a variety of challenges for fans of extreme sports – from skiing, bungee jumping, surfing, cycling, diving and much more. Worldclass artists such as Snoop Dogg, Nas, KRS-One, A$AP Rocky, Eve, Iggy Azaelia and Tony Touch were all thrilled while performing on the water, wowed by the festivals effortless combination of both daytime beach fun and hip-hop culture. This fact alone is what has managed to set Fresh Island apart as not only one of the best beach club and party areas in Croatia, but the world. The duo of Snoop Dogg & Madcon were so overwhelmed with the atmosphere and that they shot a video for their upcoming single "Is You With Me" during their stay. New Yorker Fresh Island will be a festival experience that stays with you long after the sun sets and the party stops.

Day 3

24 JUL 2014

DMX

Following the deaths of Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G., DMX took over as the undisputed reigning king of hardcore rap. He was that rare commodity: a commercial powerhouse with artistic and street credibility to spare. His rapid ascent to stardom was actually almost a decade in the making, which gave him a chance to develop the theatrical image that made him one of rap's most distinctive personalities during his heyday.
