You might have discovered her at La Bâtie last year with her Marara Kelly Art Show… Mayara Yamada returns to the festival in the guise of her most incandescent alter ego: Marara Kelly, extravagant DJ, party creature and tropical whirlwind ready to set the night ablaze. While her stage works draw on magical realism, feverish visions and epic journeys, her DJ sets plunge headfirst into the explosive energy of Brazilian pop music.

 Technobrega, baile funk, electronic pulses and flashes of hyperpop all collide under Marara Kelly’s command, driven by an irrepressible sense of momentum. Here, dancing is both a playground and a political act, a way of shaking up bodies and decolonising minds without ever leaving the dancefloor. At La Bâtie, prepare yourself for a sensual, subversive and high-voltage night of heavy-duty partying. A collective rise in temperature: excessive, exhilarating and gloriously out of control.
