*Cascada*

With over 30 million albums sold worldwide, two Billboard Dance #1s, and a **World Music Award** to her name, Cascada is one of the best-selling German artists of all time. Her smash hit *“Evacuate The Dancefloor”* **debuted at #1 in the UK** and reached the top 3 on the ARIA charts, going **platinum in Australia**. Fans can expect an electrifying live show packed with her biggest anthems including *“Everytime We Touch”*, *“What Hurts The Most”* and *“Evacuate The Dancefloor”* – the ultimate soundtrack to RAYDIA’s dancefloor in The Domain.

**Cascada** says: *“I’m so excited to be returning to Australia after so many years! The energy from Aussie crowds has always been incredible, and I can’t wait to perform all the songs that people know and love at RAYDIA. It’s going to be one huge celebration – I’ll see you on the dancefloor!” *

**DRAG ICON MARINA SUMMERS SET TO SLAY AT RAYDIA**

Joining the line-up is **Marina Summers**, the Filipina superstar who’s taken the world by storm. After finishing as Runner-Up on Drag Race Philippines Season 1 and placing Top 4 on RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs The World, Marina has become one of the most beloved international Drag Race stars – amassing nearly half a million Instagram followers. She will be taking to the RAYDIA stage with an 8-minute full production extravaganza.

Marina says: *“I am so happy to be performing at RAYDIA! Sydney always brings the heat, and I can’t wait to give everyone my full production show with Filipino pride on the incredible arena stage.”*

**FIRST EVER ARENA STAGE FOR A DANCE PARTY IN THE DOMAIN**

RAYDIA will make history as the first dance party in The Domain to feature an **arena-style stage** “in the round”, placing the audience 360 degrees around the performers. This innovative setup will transform The Domain into an immersive dancefloor experience – bringing fans closer to the action, with world-class sound, lighting and visual production surrounding the entire crowd.

**FROM THE CREATOR OF DOMAIN DANCE PARTY**

RAYDIA is being organised by the creator of Domain Dance Party, LGBTQIA+ community member Alex Daoust (he/him), who held the position of Executive Producer of the Sydney WorldPride 2023 Festival. Domain Dance Party was the highest selling event of the entire Sydney WorldPride Festival with over 21,000 people in attendance, and performers including Kelly Rowland, Suri, Isis Muretech and OMEO.

Alex says: *“Australia has been missing a major moment for the LGBTQIA+ community at the start of summer and RAYDIA is here to change that. We’re creating a world-class production party packed with surprises in The Domain – an iconic open-air venue in the heart of Sydney. This is the next evolution of LGBTQIA+ festivals in Australia and everyone is welcome.”*
