Holy Ship Wrecked 2023 Jason Fenmore
Last month, several thousand fans trekked to Riviera Maya, Mexico to experience one of the final dance music festivals before the holidays, Holy Ship! Wrecked.
The party from Insomniac Events — which formerly took place on an actual cruise ship and has been on land since 2020 — took over the Hard Rock Hotel in Riviera Maya, Mexico from Dec. 12-16 and featured roughly 60 artists playing at six stages throughout the site, including pool and beachside pop up shows.
The lineup included Mau P, Nikki Nair, Chris Lake, Tokimonsta, Skream, Green Velvet and Boys Noize, along with Mija, Dombresky and Netsky, whose sets — appearing exclusively on Billboard below — will give you a taste of some of the sun-soaked fun that went down at the party.
Mija
Mija (who made an appearance on our best dance tracks of 2023 list) wastes no time getting into it, launching her set with some bouncing house music courtesy of a Mike Dearborn edit, with the high energy set also incorporating work from Disfreq, Chris Lorenzo, Mochakk and her own “NO RULES.”
Dombresky
French producer Dombresky set the energy high with a non-stop house set featuring music from Low Steppa & Tony Romero, Antss, Ozzie Guven, Joe Impero and Kashovi, as well as his own tracks “Soul Sacrifice” and “All For You.”
Netsky
Belgian producer Netsky delivered a high octane 50-minute set that immediately turned the dial all the way up to 11 and kept it there, incorporating selections from the bass, drum & bass and mainstage realms of dance music.
