After Lisbon and London, Festival Iminente arrives in Shanghai with a showcase that brings together a fine selection of music acts ready to take over the world. Taking place at one of the city's hottest clubs, Le Baron Shanghai, on 21 March, from 10pm to 4am, the Iminente Showcase promises a blast of a night with the vibes of DJ Marfox, Shaka Lion, and DJ collective Yeti Out. Admission is free of charge, upon reservation through: reservations@lebaronshanghai.com.

The brainchild of world-renowned Portuguese visual artist Alexandre Farto aka Vhils, who curates it alongside Lisbon-based Underdogs Gallery, Festival Iminente brings together the very best of urban art and music from Portugal in dialogue with the rest of the world, generating an intense, creative, and vibrant atmosphere.

Present in Shanghai for the opening of a new solo exhibition at Danysz gallery, Vhils himself will be attending the showcase. The Portuguese artist comments: "From the very first edition, in 2016, we realised Iminente had a massive potential to bring together artists from different backgrounds and nationalities. We were thrilled to see it work in London as well, gathering Portuguese and English artists from the street scene, and couldn't wait to see it spread even farther, as the atmosphere is so generous and contagious. Shanghai was an obvious place to go to next, as l've had a special relationship with the city in particular and Chinese culture in general for many years now. Aiming to establish a connection between

Portuguese and international artists, the first step will be a showcase featuring three music acts flown over specially for the event."
