Reeling from the success of their sell out New Year's spectacular, Bugged Out, Arcadia, Just Jack and Bristol's own Blast are again joining forces, to host The Greatest Show On Earth, taking over a vast site comprised of a skate park, warehouse, terrace, tunnel, car park and nightclub at Motion in Bristol on Easter Bank Holiday on Easter Thursday 1st April. The Greatest Show On Earth promises a unique experience featuring staggeringly flamboyant production from Arcadia, who are responsible for transforming Glastonbury's Shangri-la, Bestival and Glade, and creating an unforgettable event for the out of season festival revelers.

Arcadia come armed with their full range of pyrotechnics and circus acts, performing phenomenal activities that have become notorious on the major UK festival circuit. The Greatest Show on Earth is set to push boundaries even further, producing a futuristic theatrical world of activity while taking in the sounds of some of the finest electro, techno and bass around. This event sets out to be much more than a regular club night offering not just exceptional music, but a fusion of explosive multi-level stage sets, and an armory of special effects and performances, stimulating the senses visually, physical and mentally. Also on board are the creative souls, The Secret Garden Party, with their Fayre in the car park, as well as Team Love, who have gained their stripes from running the dance lounge at Glastonbury.

The Arcadia Warehouse playshost to the mighty Hybrid AKA Mike Truman, Chris Healings and Lee Mullins, the Swansea-based collective with designs on the future of music. Hybrid bonded over a remix of Pink Floyd's 'Another Brick in the Wall', and they've been doing DJ sets and mixing their own music ever since, becoming sought-after remixers, and putting their skills to use for artists as varied as Jazzy Jeff, Carl Cox and Alanis Morissette. Alongside, Far Too Loud, who have gained a significant reputation in dance music for quality, dance floor-destroying production with a signature mix of hard-hitting beats, dirty baselines, detailed production and twisted sound design that has set them apart from the rest. Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs bring their enigmatic and charged sound along with support from StereoO8, Roar Terror and Steve Redux.

Bugged Out are an all night electro/techno party that takes place in Bristol, London, Manchester, Milan, Rome and Barcelona. They create their own contribution to The Greatest Show On Earth in the Skate Park with Vitalic, the disco visionary responsible for shaping the sound of modern-day electronic music, and whose name arouses intense emotion in his countless admirers. Fake Blood brings his meticulously constructed sets - that have popped many an electro-diehard's blood vessels - to the evening. This skill, coupled with a secret and highly debated identity, have made him one of the most enigmatic acts of recent times. The seminal Retro Grade are Tom Neville and Serge Santiago, recently signed to Deconstruction. They take their inspiration from a period between disco and house - the grey zone where synths were first used with disco and when drum machines were used to keep in time. A bit along the lines of a modern day Italo Disco, their sound, remixes and live sets have been receiving stand-up attention in all the right places. Local boys Deepgroove come armed with 100% party attitude and a keen ear for exactly the right tune to devastate the dance floor, consistently smashing it and pleasing their loyal following. Bugged Out's final culprit Julio Bashmore, promises to showcase his distinguished mix of house, disco and dubstep.

Just Jack's resident,Buckley is widely known for his DJ, production and remix skills as well as for his consistent eight year residency at Leeds institution Back to Basics, one of the longest weekly house nights in the world and holds a subsidiary position at We Love at Space in Ibiza. Finally Josh Tweak lends strong support in the Just Jack room.

Last but by no means least, The Blast, one of Bristol's most exciting club nights will be filling the cave with bass. Bringing the cutting-edge of global bass talent to Bristol, Blast have been causing massive ruptures on the city's underground. Basically, if it's got a big heaving bassline then it's fit for Blast.Proudly presenting Tayo, one of the driving forces in the nascent breaks scene, he made a name for himself as a remarkably talented DJ, and as A&R for Mob Records, one of the scene's pioneers. More recently, Tayo has focused on developing a dub infused breaks and dubstep sound to great success. DJ Derrick, whose legendary record collection encompasses his beloved reggae, ska, dancehall and rock steady, and Randall are both on board to further charge up the party atmosphere.
