☀️🌊 CHOCOLATE GROOVE PRESENTS: ANNUAL SUMMER SOLSTICE ECSTATIC DANCE PARTY FT. YEMANJO (LIVE ACT)
As we cross the threshold into our 8th and most magical year of Chocolate Groove, we gather to honor the Summer Solstice—the cosmic portal of absolute illumination, peak vitality, and radical joy.
After a completely sold-out homecoming, we are taking this momentum to the next level. For this annual celebration, we are bringing in an incredible international visionary force to anchor the midsummer medicine.
Toronto, welcome the return of the sun.
🎶 FEATURING INTERNATIONAL ARTIST: YEMANJO
Yemanjo is a producer, DJ, and musician who has traveled the world gathering inspiration for his “Borderless Beats”—multicultural music that aims to break down the barriers that divide us and celebrate the diversity of human expression through sound.
With releases on respected imprints such as Shika Shika, Sol Selectas, and Wonderwheel Recordings, and a compelling live performance that features trumpet, percussion, and vocals, Yemanjo is at the forefront of the global organic/electronic scene.
