This is the 12th edition of Heineken Green Synergy, the summer-long DJ competition where DJs from all over the island compete for a cash prize, a trophy and other prizes. The event typically attracts a large crowd following with fans wooing for their favourite DJs. The audience is also afforded opportunities to win prizes and this year extra prizes can be won via the Heineken Green Synergy Facebook page.
