From March 8–12, 2023, SXM Festival returns for an unforgettable musical and cultural event.

The Caribbean gem of Saint Martin | Sint Maarten is the only festival in the world that encompasses a full island, making it the pinnacle of travel experiences. Get ready for a week of top-notch electronic music performed in chic, opulent, and frequently strange settings scattered over this picturesque island. Along with French-style champagne sipping afternoons by the pool, excellent food, boat activities, and culturally diverse adventures, beach, villa, and boat parties, hilltop sunrise sessions, and peak-time boho parties are all covered. Define your own special adventure, and you can be sure that each day will be unique and unforgettable.

Many of the most renowned figures in the global dance and techno industry are on the 2023 SXM Festival schedule. The Grammy-nominated, triple-platinum duo CamelPhat, Music On’s Marco Carola, a pioneer of electronic music Dubfire, and the musical experience of Astra Club, featuring a b2b set from DJ Tennis and Carlita, are the headliners of the bill. As for other attractions, they include the return of Swiss favorite Sonja Moonear after her remarkable performance in 2022, Gordo, the standout DJ and producer Mochakk from Brazil, and the imaginative melodic house and techno veteran Rodriguez Jr.

Additionally adding to the lineup’s international diversity are rising West African DJ and producer AMÉMÉ, Palestinian DJ Maher Daniel, French exports Apollonia and YokoO, DJ and producer Gene On Earth from Berlin, and Konstantin Sibold, a German producer and co-founder of the Common Sense People event series. A diversity of styles round out the lineup from the likes of acclaimed selector Doc Martin, Moscow Records and Moss Co. imprint head Archie Hamilton, the mystical melodic sounds of Deer Jade, and psychedelic house producer Mita Gami among others.

The party locations are amazing, starting with the storied Happy Bay. The renowned Arc Major Stage and the immersive Ocean Stage are located at the remote private beach tucked away in the jungle, which also acts as the main evening venue. Other attractions include the notorious Villa Party, which requires a VIP ticket, and the Boho Beach Club, the ideal spot to unwind and retreat throughout the day. Experience a resurgence of the luxury that was once reserved for 1960s jet-set movie idols, coupled with contemporary luxury and design. Definitely one of the festival’s high points is this party. Sandyline, an upscale estate, is a daytime rendezvous for your inner rock star and a showcase for the stylish.
