Mount Everest: British DJ Hosts The Highest Party On Earth Ever & This Happened (Photos)

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.

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
