Everything was free, including entry.

The performers — The XX, Stella Mozgawa, Caius Pawson, Daniel Stricker, and Jimmy Sing — all performed at the event for free.
With a mirage artists performing, attendees danced on to a plethora music, including disco, dancehall, and afro-beat until the promoters discovered that their gear was gone.
