Top British DJ Paul Oakenfold braved thinning air and freezing temperatures to host the 'highest party on earth' at Everest Base camp on Tuesday, playing to around 100 climbers all in full mountain gear. The Base camp lies at an altitude of 5,380 metres (17,600 feet) The 53-year-old artist, who trekked for ten days to reach base camp, mixed his beats on a makeshift stone stage set against the spectacular backdrop of the world's highest mountains. With brightly coloured Tibetan prayer flags fluttering overhead, climbers and trekkers danced as best they could in their heavy hiking boots and thick down jackets. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/04/british-dj-hosts-worlds-highest-party-everest/ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4401760/British-DJ-hosts-worlds-highest-party-Everest.html 8 Likes 1 Share

Base camp lies at an altitude of 5,380 metres (17,600 feet), and around 100 climbers and trekkers were there for the gig. 'It was truly amazing. I feel very lucky to have played here. We did a wonderful event and had people from all over the world. I feel very blessed,' Oakenfold told AFP by phone from base camp after the performance. Base camp lies at an altitude of 5,380 metres (17,600 feet), and around 100 climbers and trekkers were there for the gig. 'It was pretty cool. I've been here many years but never seen anything like that,' 38-year-old American climber Ben Jones told AFP by phone. The number of trekkers at the camp will swell in the coming weeks as the climbing season gets into full swing. Hundreds of climbers spend weeks acclimatising to the altitude before attempting to reach the summit during the brief spring window when the weather is at its best. 9 Likes

Prior to the concert on Tuesday, he has performed practice sets in villages on the way to base camp. It was a dramatic departure for Oakenfold, who admitted he was more used to playing the world's top clubs and the beaches of Ibiza and Goa than the mountains of Nepal. Oakenfold, who had never trekked before, trained for four months. 3 Likes

The 53-year-old artist trekked for ten days to reach base camp where mixed his beats on a makeshift stone stage set. Oakenfold, whose three-decade long career has included collaborations with Madonna and U2, is also raising funds to help survivors of Nepal's devastating 2015 earthquake, which killed nearly 9,000 people and left thousands homeless. 'I want to support in the rebuilding and to shed light on the environment... I would like to do my bit,' the DJ, who made his name during the 90s rave scene, said. However not everyone is keen on the idea, with some complaining the renowned DJ is disturbing the peace and tranquility of the Himalayas. 1 Like
