Tribal Gathering was a dance music festival that catered for different types of dance music cultures such as Techno, Rave, House and Drum & Bass. The original promoters Universe (Paul Shurey, Rob Vega, Paul (Mr.Oz) Marlow and Ian Jenkinson) had been organising events since the heady days of 1989 when raves such as Sunrise, Raindance and Perception were in their pomp. They wanted to organise an event to bring together the different sub-cultures of the dance world and also to have a festival feel to it. The first Tribal Gathering took place Friday 30th April 1993 at Lower Pertwood Farm, Warminster, Wiltshire, England. 25,000 people attended to see acts such as diverse as Laurent Garnier, Carl Cox, Paul Oakenfold, Slipmatt and Pete Tong. There were other events smaller scale events that took place in Europe in 1994. The Criminal Justice Bill of 1994 discouraged massive outdoor raves. Tribal Gathering
