Festival highlight

They’re back, fitter, crazier, and more exciting than ever. Sean and Nico have taken on a truly massive challenge this time. In addition to the technical difficulties, they’re battling the Patagonian storms, those ferocious winds that the Yámana Indians worshipped as deities. A truly spectacular and exhilarating show!
