Fans flock to ‘Star Wars’ desert rave in Tunisian dunes

Fans flock to ‘Star Wars’ desert rave in Tunisian dunes

The Dunes Electroniques dance festival opens to the mellow beats of one of Tunisia’s biggest up-and-coming DJs on a stage planted in the middle of the Sahara. It is a surreal sight. The festival setting is cocooned by sand dunes, and the backstage area is the film set for the town of Mos Espa on the fictional planet of Tatooine. At first glance, it could be an event anywhere in the world, but it’s distinctively Tunisian.
