The summer may be over, but that does not mean the festivals have to be. Taking place this Jan 16-18 at the Figali Convention Center in Panama City, Panama, Disco Donnie Presents and local promoter Showpro will be hosting the third consecutive running of electronic music festival The Day After Festival. TDA (The Day After) just announced today the first wave of artists that will be joining the festival. The main headliners that will be gracing the main stage and underground leaning Beatport stage include a Dutch threesome of Tiësto, Martin Garrix and Afrojack on the main stage with Claude von Stroke and Art Department at the Beatport stage.

The full lineup has not been announced, but the additional names joining the festival are Baggi Begovic, Bassjackers, Billy The Kit, Borgore, Cegric Gervais, The Chainsmokers, Damian Lazarus, DVBBS, FTampa, Fur Coat, Guti, Jay Hardaway, Mandy, Michael Brun, New World Sound, Oliver Heldens and W&W according to a press release. This preliminary list will largely be planted on the main stage, but there are plenty more names to come that will populate the Beatport stage lineup, as well as rounding out the main stage.

Beatport and Disco Donnie Presents are both SFX Entertainment companies, so the partnership seems like a logical cross-promotional opportunity within the many recently SFX bought entities.

The past two TDA festivals have featured headlining acts like Hardwell, Calvin Harris, Nicky Romero and repeat act Afrojack. It looks to top the past two years with an even bigger lineup and production.

Tickets are on sale now, so if you want to take a vacation on the other side of the New Year, head to the website to get yours.
