Goa's psytrance scene, born in Anjuna in the 1960s-70s, still draws a crowd every peak season (roughly December-February), with parties spread across North Goa's beach villages.
Highlights
- Anjuna and Vagator are the traditional hubs for the trance scene
- Peak season runs roughly December to February
- Parties are often informal and word-of-mouth rather than ticketed venues
- Licensed clubs offer a more organized alternative to beach parties
Stick to well-known, licensed venues and travel in a group at night.
