“For 10 days each January, more than 250 of the biggest, most party-starting DJs on the planet…turn the sleepy beach town of Playa del Carmen into Ibiza’s tequila-fueled winter outpost. Brace yourself.”
— Rolling Stone
“The festival has managed to get bigger while still maintaining the special intimacy that it’s known for and in recent years has perfectly blended the swagger of the larger shows with the bedrock of underground support that has always defined the festival.” — Mixmag
“The event is consistently one of the most talked about events in dance music — and for good reason: its lineups are comparable to none.” — Dancing Astronaut

About The BPM Festival
The BPM Festival is an annual ten day and night electronic music festival, founded by Craig Pettigrew and Philip Pulitano, held in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. This global gathering of DJs, producers, revelers and industry professionals has become a must for any music lover with a discerning taste for quality electronic dance music. BPM parties are hosted both day and night at multiple venues in Playa Del Carmen, a picturesque beach town that runs along miles of soft white sand beaches and sparkling turquoise waters on the Mayan Riviera. The town offers a variety of luxurious and affordable boutique hotels and condos, and endless options for dining and tourism, including: ancient Mayan ruins, cenotes, aquatic sports and eco tourism. In 2013, The BPM Festival won ‘International Festival’ from the DJ Awards in Ibiza and in 2014 was nominated by International Dance Music Awardsfor ‘Best Music Event.’ Now entering its ninth year, The BPM Festival (January 8-17, 2016) continues to be a dance music lover’s tropical paradise and the perfect winter getaway.
