Global Breakthrough hits Cape Town

The final locations are set for Cape Town's clubbing tour Global Breakthrough this February/March and once again they're off the map.

2007 debutantes Âme, who last year spun alongside a tank full of deep sea fish and man-eating sharks, will be heading outdoors for a daytime BBQ at—we kid you not—an ostrich farm. Âme, Henrik Schwarz and the Snow Patrol DJs are also spinning a tasty sounding sunset to sunrise rave on top of Signal Hill with views over the city and ocean to die for.

Meanwhile, the Cape Town version of a "secret warehouse" party finds Luciano lining up behind the decks inside a helicopter hangar. Like past GBs, there's also a glam element, too. The curtain raiser and official recovery happen in more well-heeled settings at two bars on the swank Camps Bay strip so pack accordingly if you're jetting in.

Here are the full dates for Global Breakthrough 2008:

Feb 27 Opening Party, Karma, Cape Town
Feb 29 Âme, The Ostrich Farm, Cape Town
Feb 29 Luciano, The Helicopter Hangar
Mar 1 Snow Patrol DJs, Âme, Henrik Schwarz, Signal Hill, Cape Town
Mar 2 Recovery Party, Baraza, Cape Town

Global Breakthrough happens February 27 to March 2, 2008 in Cape Town, South Africa. Festival passes are on sale from WebTickets.
