JAKARTA - The annual Djakarta Warehouse Project (DWP) festival will enter its 11th event in 2019, a thing that rarely happens at festival events in Indonesia. To get through a decade of concerts, maybe only Ismaya Live will be able to achieve it. It can also be seen that every year, the DWP has increased positively.

Through the second DWP press conference at Djournal House, South Jakarta, Friday 15 November, Ismaya Live as the organizer leaked some information from the festival which will be held at JI EXPO Kemayoran, Jakarta on 13-15 December 2019. The press conference was attended by Kevin Wiyarnanda as Public Relations Ismaya, Sarah Deshita as Brand Manager of Ismaya, and DJ Pixiee as fillers for DWP 2019. The three of them shared about what's new from this year's event.

One of the DJs standing in the main lineup, Calvin Harris will be back after his performance seven years ago. Throughout the year, Calvin Harris has spawned many hits. He also has many duets with fellow musicians, namely Frank Ocean, Sam Smith, Ariana Grande, and many more.

Sarah Deshita explained that Ismaya had made Calvin Harris a wishlist in the 2019 DWP line-up.

"The difficulty is more on schedule conflicts or his studio time," said Sarah, who called Calvin Harris a material headliners.

Apart from that, Elrow's touring party from Barcelona was also awaited performer. Sarah claims that many have asked about Elrow's presence at the DWP event. Luckily, Ismaya Live will bring Elrow on the theme El triangulo de las Rowmudas, a concept that focuses on a fun submarine journey until the ship gets into the fish. A fun idea!

There is also Yellow Claw who confirmed to bring Barong Family, their record label. This is the Barong Family's first visit to Indonesia, so it is certain that there are surprises and of course it will be exciting.

More Awareness, More Fun

Even though DWP is well known and has a place for concert-goers, it doesn't mean that there are no improvements in its programs. Ismaya Live has prepared a number of fun which is ready to be shared at this event.

For Instagram users, there is an official DWP 2019 gif to beautify the Instagram story. There have also been several collaborations with local musicians and brands to unify the 2019 DWP vision in the form of souvenirs. The shirts that are produced are available in unisex models so that all genders can wear them. In addition, there are collaborations with the Disney franchise which are very production wise.

Eternal Plus as the official DWP drink will also issue a special collection which is limited in sale. This bottle with a good design can be found in general at supermarkets or at the 2019 DWP event.

To increase awareness of music lovers, DWP also held Road to DWP 2019 events in dozens of cities at home and abroad. Next week, Road to DWP is scheduled to visit Beijing, Hangzhou, Shanghai, Nanjing, Hanoi, Changzhou and Suzhou.

Celebration Welcomes a New Point

From the start, it has been explained that this year's DWP is entering its 11th year, which means that after a decade it will start over anew. The reason for starting something new is also after holding a DWP in Bali last year.

"Why not? It's a new celebration for us. It's also fun to make in Bali. The DWP closes at the end of the year, so it's a kind of DWP weekend. "

Already an annual event in Indonesia, Ismaya Live hopes that DWP is not just a music festival. "But also the celebration of life," concluded Sarah.

Calvin Harris, Disclosure, Martin Garrix, Skrillex, and Zedd are slated to be the main lineup for the 2019 DWP festival. But apart from that, there are still a lot of artists to be announced next week. For tickets, you can buy them on the site www.djakartawarehouse.com with a variety of package options.
