MOGA FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES FULL LINE-UP FOR 2025 WITH PRASLEA, APOLLONIA, DJ TENNIS & MORE

October 1–5, 2025 | Essaouira, Morocco

MOGA Festival, Morocco’s cult boutique gathering and late-summer escape, has locked in its full line-up for the 2025 edition, returning to Essaouira from October 1–5 with over 70 artists spanning house, techno, Afro and global electronic sounds.

Joining the already announced heavyweights, including Praslea, Apollonia, DJ Tennis, Thomas Melchior, Janeret, and Saoirse, are a fresh wave of selectors and innovators. New additions include Magda, the minimal-disco queen of Items & Things; Dorian Craft, bringing his widescreen techno explorations; Enzo Leep, one of Spain’s most exciting house exports; Jorge Caiado, head of Lisbon’s Carpets & Snares imprint; Luca Saporito (Audiofly), with his hypnotic tech-house touch; and Rita Soko, resident of Scorpios Mykonos and Bodrum. Together, they add extra depth to a bill designed for deep heads, free spirits and global dancers alike.

Now in its eighth edition, MOGA Essaouira has become a pilgrimage for music lovers chasing sun, culture and connection. The five-day festival is split between two programs: the OFF events (October 1–2), which scatter free parties, workshops and artistic happenings throughout Essaouira’s medina, and the IN program (October 3–5), held at the Hôtel Le Golf & Spa, a palm-lined oasis with four immersive stages, two pools, and sunset-to-sunrise vibes.

Curated alongside tastemakers like Deeproot, Bedouin Saga and Life & Death, the line-up leans into storytelling and organic grooves, soundtracking Essaouira’s golden beaches, Atlantic breezes and star-filled skies. Expect an eclectic journey across stages named Main, Garden, Wild and Terrace, each carving its own sonic identity.

Alongside international DJs, the festival celebrates Essaouira’s Gnawa heritage, local rhythms and Atlantic soul, while also offering wellness sessions, culinary pop-ups, creative workshops and site-specific art. Like its sister edition in Caparica, Portugal, MOGA brings together a global tribe, with around 16,000 dancers expected for 2025.

With a finely tuned soundtrack that bridges continents and cultures, MOGA is the chance to stretch your summer deep into October, and do it in style.

Full lineup includes:
Apollonia, Bonobo, DJ Tennis, Magda, Folamour, Patrick Mason, Saoirse, Janeret, Cabanne, Dorian Craft, Enzo Leep, Jorge Caiado, Luca Saporito (Audiofly), Rita Soko, Bedouin, Daniel Bell, Steve O’Sullivan, Priku, Thomas Melchior, Yaya, Arapu, Praslea and many more across 70+ acts.
