Paradise is an event that my partner and I look forward to all year, knowing that it is where we can connect with a diverse group of people while dancing to the excellent local electronic musical talent as well as to artists from Outside. It seems almost magical for the short time it lasts, as we unwind and dance our cares away in an organic outside experience.
