What The Float returns to Atlantain May for an out of this world extravaganza! This month, we're making our merry way to Midtown, where we'll explore so much diverse architecture and geography. And dance the hell up on it. This is our most ambitious adventure yet, and we're beyond excited to share this floating dance party with you. The Float may be with you always, but your ony chance to experience this one is on May 14th!
What's a “floating dance party”, you ask? It's kind of like a dance club, except without walls, borders, or limits. It's mind-expanding, heart-pumping, booty-shaking glory. It's all the best parts of dancing on your own or being part of a giant rave, with none of the downsides of either. It's FLOAT. We'll meet in the plaza in front of Colony Square's sweetgreen starting at 8:00pm for check-in, but from there we’ll explore the night and the city as the music inspires us, dancing through streets, plazas, parks, and more. The music - mixed by mad Float scientists Pascal Portney, Madison Davis, and Carl Fisk & Cait Cortelyou - will be piped directly into your brains through our glowing headphones. All you have to do is put them on, and the music takes care of the rest.
All the world will become an endless surreal dancefloor, the mild-mannered will become fearless booty-shaking superstars, and the night will be ours, completely silently to any observer. You will experience the streets of the city in entirely new ways. The power of the FLOAT will swell within you, and you’ll give yourself entirely to the dance in a way you never dreamed was possible.
If you cannot afford a ticket right now, do not hesitate to reach out, so we can find a way for you to Float. If you've got money to spare though, Arc Southeast is a very good place to donate right now.
What is Float: What The Float is a one-of-a-kind immersive adventure and a naturally socially distant dance party. Explore Atlanta in a synchronous groove odyssey with the music pulsed directly into your brain but silent to any observers. Simultaneously the city’s most private dance party and its most public spectacle, we'll lead you not just on a journey through the city's wide open spaces and hidden nooks, but also through the inner reaches of your own freshly liberated soul. Dance where you've never dreamed of dancing before. Reclaim your home.
How to Float: Dress to be true to you. Wear comfortable shoes in which you can dance and run and climb and jump. We'll equip you with a pair glowing headsets, and the carefully curated music will lead you on a unique adventure through the parks and plazas of the city. Pack lightly, we'll be on the move. Once we’re gathered at the rendezvous point, we'll all dance away together into the night, with stopping at a couple of bars for intermissions along the way. Please join us promptly at 8:00pm if you do not want to be left behind. More info available at WhatTheFloat.com.
