Guest announcement: Drop Team Epic
Born from the flames of molten steel, and dying shortly after cause ain’t nobody gonna survive that, Drop Team Epic was resurrected by a truck driver well versed in the dark arts so they could bring you the best in UK Hardcore, Christmas Music, Candy Rave, Trap, Mongolian Throat Singing, Dubstep, and NOLA Bounce. From Austin Texas this duo is a collaboration project from DJs Kill Screen and Pearl Grey. Expect a high energy, professionally crafted, and insanely dope mix inspired by their favorite artists like 10 hour ASMR soft loli breathing and 24hr lo-fi hip hot beats for chill/study. Having performed events such as San Japan, Anime North, Mordecai’s Bar Mitzvah, Naka-Kon, Becky’s sweet 16 birthday party, Okashicon, Dance Night at Whispering Oaks Retirement Community, and more these two really know how to throw a party.

All rides (except Tiko’s watering hole, coral cove, and kids attractions) will be open including the Paxton Grotto Swim up bar and outside hot tubs.
We’ll have the wristbands ahead of time, so we can sell them like last year at reg, and a table near reg.
Lockers and Cabanas are available. Attendees will need to inquire about Cabanas in advance(pricing varies). Lockers vary by price.
If you’re staying at the Kalahari, you get waterpark wristbands with your room for their normal waterpark hours, but If you’d like to hit up the waterpark on Friday & Saturday night without normies around, then this is a great time. If you intend to buy alcohol, please show ID to the Kalahari staff prior to entering the waterpark, and they will put a 21+ wristband on you. We are limited to selling 2000 entries. Food and drinks will be available inside the waterpark during the event.
