When I first heard of Happyland, I immediately thought of a children's amusement park, and lo and behold it actually is a chain of entertainment centers in Chile. But anyone who is better versed in festivals would recognize Happyland as one of the better festivals of house and dance music. The festival was a huge hit in Berlin in 2010 and 2011, but our lovely Barcelona was chosen for it's third year! So Barcelona, get ready for "sun, music and happiness."

The festival will take place at Port Forum on the 21st of July with 12 hours of non-stop music from some of the best acts in House and Dance music. The idea of the festival is to bring together DJs who have never performed on the same stage before. This year there are huge names like Tiesto, Wally Lopez, Sebastian Ingrosso (Swedish House Mafia.) Check out the full line up below.

The Line Up 2012:

- TIESTO (Ultra Records, Musical Freedom/ Netherlands)
- SEBASTIAN INGROSSO (Refune, Swedish House Mafia/ Sweden)
- DIRTY SOUTH (Phazing/ Australia)
- WALLY LOPEZ (theFactoria, Factomania/ Spain)
- JESSY (eMotion Agency, 90fm Radio/ Netherlands)
- AMNESIA Barcelona feat. AMNESIA Ibiza with Les Schmitz (Amnesia Ibiza/ Spain)
- WILLIAM BELART (MVP, Privilege Ibiza/ Spain)
- NICO HAMUY (Buenos Aires/ Argentina)
- SORAYA ARNELAS a Special Vocal performance (Sony/Columbia, Spanish Idol 2004-2005/ Spain)

They're expecting 20,000 people, so it's going to be madness. If you don't want to jump around with thousands of people, or if you have your mom's credit card, then you might be interested to know that Happyland also offers VIP passes. VIP and Premium clients sit at a table at the front of the show enjoying the view.
