Fantazia (rave music promoter)

Fantazia was a rave music promoter and organiser based in the United Kingdom.

[1] It was founded in 1991 by James Perkins, Gideon Dawson & Chris Griffin,[2] and held a number of seminal raves at the height of the breakbeat hardcore scene in the early 1990s.

Fantazia first held a rave at Coventry's Eclipse nightclub, but would soon become best known for its large outdoor events.

Its biggest event that year was The Big Bang at Glasgow's SECC Centre in November, which set a record at the time as the largest ever indoor rave.

[2] On 14 April 2019 Gideon Dawson was found dead in his Cheltenham home after suffering an overdose of cocaine and prescription drugs.
