Right now it probably seems like you have plenty of time to start planning next year’s big festival run but for BPM Festival goers, January could not come soon enough. With 10 day early bird tickets already sold out and promotions for this year’s event creating a buzz, it’s no surprise that fans are beginning the preparation process now.
As BPM gears up to celebrate its 8th anniversary by the crystal clear waters of the Mayan Riviera, our favorite DJs have gathered together to remind us why this festival stands out in today’s clamor to produce noteworthy electronic music events. In this video, we hear from the likes of Boys Noize, Danny Tenaglia, Pete Tong and many more about the positive energy found only on the Yucatan.
Artists applaud the festival for limiting the commercialization and corporate branding of the event as well as for hosting a crowd of knowledgeable music lovers. Year after year, the BPM lineup draws fans looking for a more underground sound.
The open expectation of the crowd allows artists the freedom to wander outside the known electronic music world and into the endless stretch of their imaginations, creating an unparalleled musical opportunity.
As if the lure of dancing on a beach from sunrise to sunset to the placid beats of your favorite 250+ DJs wasn’t enough, there’s also the opportunity to lose yourself in the captivating ancient culture. From the awe inspiring Mayan ruins (one of the 7 Ancient Wonders of the World) to the gorgeous ancient coral reefs that line the Mexican coast, there is never an excuse for boredom during this rich cultural adventure.
Whether you plan to spend your trip dancing in the sand or if you’re looking to throw in a few tropical excursions, now is the time to start planning. Regular priced 10-day passes range anywhere from $450 to $750 and will go on sale in the coming weeks. If that seems like a bit much for you, no worries, BPM offers ticket packages for shorter stays as well.
7-day and 3-day passes will also be available for a more affordable rate or you can opt to buy passes to individual clubs as you go but be warned – at a cost of up to $40 per entrance, that can add up quickly. Also, check out The BPM Festival‘s website for information on how you can save on your flight and hotel by booking through their Orbitz portal.
If you haven’t realized yet, this is not the kind of festival you can go to on a whim. It takes months of saving, searching and booking to create this dream vacation. Sleep on this opportunity and you will either miss out on the resort of your choice or worse… Tickets will sell out. In the end though, it will all be worth it so start saving your pennies now, because I assure you – they are all better spent in Mexico. See you in paradise!
