Sensation White, Into the Wild At Toronto's Rogers Centre

Once a year in Downtown Toronto at the Rogers Centre, Toronto holds an all white music festival with some of the world's best EDM DJ's. This year Afrojack, Mr. White, and Eric Prydz attended the festival and it was most definitely a sensational night with amazing people. It was required for entry to the event that all the attendants where all white clothing, and the result of the images and layout of the crowd was incredible. Everyone was given a bracelet that glowed in the dark, which created a dream like atmosphere, and the combination of the energy of the crowd along with the DJ performing was what made the night complete.The concept of "into the wild" comes from the concept of the Sensation that was originated in Europe and is held in different countries across the world including Belgium, South Africa, Germany, Italy, Mexcio and others. There are a number of entertainers that attend the event that preform acrobatics and dancing that portrays the image of being in a wildlife scenario (faces painted, special costumes etc) I have enclosed a video below to portray the amazing atmosphere of the event.
The amazing thing about EDM events, is that for whichever purpose they are attending whether it be to witness a DJ they love or never have seen before, or they are simply having the time of their life with their friends, everyone feels united within the environment. When a special song comes on that everybody knows it results in everyone singing along with the lyrics, and it is an amazing feeling to have everyone surrounding you so passionate about one thing, the music. I have another video enclosed that demonstrates the interesting use of lighting throughout the event that I quite enjoyed.

Although this event can be on the pricey side, it only happens once a year and if you are looking for a different experience with a bunch of friends Downtown Toronto and you enjoy house music, this event is the perfect opportunity to experience that. I met a few people at the event, and was fortunate to say that they just added to my friend group and experience. Below I have posted a couple pictures of some of the friends I was happy to say I made at a point in the night.

 


The great thing about the event is there is a lot of accommodation surrounding the Roger's Centre for transportation or places to sleep. I was fortunate to stay in the hotel attached to the Roger's centre, that i would definitely recommend to anyone who chooses to attend this event, due to the fact that the service is great and the convenience is a big plus with the close proximity of location to the event. The hotel's name was Renaissance and located directly on Blue Jays Way.  The security was very high at all times throughout the night, so I did not feel unsafe at any point throughout the duration of my stay despite the large crowds of people entering and exiting the hotel for the event.
