There is no dress code here. No heads of state on parade. The music is electronic. And, CNN lists it among the world's top 20 events worth attending. The Sunburn Festival is cue drum roll samples back. 
Born in India, the electronic music festival now one of Asia's biggest will take over the beaches of Candolim, Goa, for three days starting December 27. Helping revellers get their groove on will be 35 local and international turntable artists, with headliner DJs Armin van Buuren and Roger Sanchez. For those who want a preview though, the November Sunburn Tour with New York DJ Sean Tyas hits Mumbai, Pune, New Delhi and Bangalore this week.

Why should people attend, we ask multi award-winning DJ Tyas who, we're told, debuted at Number 54 in the DJ Magazine Top 100. "It's always good to be able to go hear new names and DJs," he replies. "Plus, it makes for some great nights out."
Those who decide to drop by can expect "a very high energy set," according to DJ Tyas. So, what's the nicest thing about being a DJ, and the worst? "The best thing is getting to hear tons of new dance music, first. The worst part waiting at airports."
