The launch of a new festival, OUHE, in Shanghai this coming fall has been confirmed by DJ, producer, and former Mixmag cover star Yu Su. The festival will run over three days and Yu Su is host, marking her first time running an event in China. The date of the festival is September 29 to October 3, with the lineup yet to be announced.
The artist has joined forces with DJ and Elevator Club co-founder, Mau Mau, Chinese producer Knopha, and multidisciplinary artist Youpo to curate and develop the festival’s creative direction. It will take place in a former Shanghai abattoir, Slaughterhouse 1933, which has been converted into a shopping mall, theatre, and entertainment complex and still maintains its art deco columns and structure.
