Beginning on the 20th May, rum-giants Bacardi are taking to the road, with a host of musical talent, to throw a series of what promises to be banging parties across the States.

Already on board for the fun are a wide-range of DJs and performers such as Santigold (formerly Santogold) Diplo, Switch, A-Trak, Tiga, Q-Tip MSTRKRFT, DJ Jazzy Jeffs, Steve Porter and others.

Bacardi are also offering the unique opportunity to order bespoke cocktails at their special custom-made-to-order bars and extraordinary lighting effects (being supplied courtesy of old-school heroes Moment Factory).
