I’ve had the pleasure of attending dozens of unique events around the world, but I have to say that SXM has become my new favorite and must-experience festival for electronic music fans!
Not only is St. Martin an idyllic Caribbean destination that deserves a place on every traveler’s bucket list, but SXM is so carefully curated for 5+ days of unique festivities that it is guaranteed to provide an unforgettable experience that’ll keep you coming back year after year.
It’s been just over a week since Dubfire played the closing set at the beachfront festival venue “Happy Bay,” but I’m still absolutely buzzing from my time thriving at SXM. I honestly can’t stop talking and thinking about it.
The entire island comes alive with this remarkable festival atmosphere, and it felt like I was in the Ibiza of the Caribbean. As far as winter escapes go — SXM Festival has definitely become my new go-to destination vacation festival for vitamin D and electronic beats.
Let’s dive into a quick recap about what made this such a special experience and why there is simply no other destination music festival of its kind.
St. Martin is truly spectacular
Who hasn’t dreamt of visiting this iconic Caribbean destination and soaking up everything this island has to offer?
St. Martin, split into two distinct Dutch and French sides, is simply breathtaking — and there’s tons to explore (if you find the energy between all the festival madness).
It’s also perfect for this type of festival as the island is home to so many incredible venues, nightclubs, and accommodations for pre-parties, beach-parties, after-parties, and villa shenanigans.
SXM Festival also partners with the tourism boards of the island, which I think is one of the main reasons why the entire island comes together to celebrate. There are billboards around the island, and SXM is promoted in nearly all of the local travel pamphlets — which really makes you feel like you’re attending the party of the year in St. Martin.
While I didn’t get to experience everything I wanted to do on the island like skydiving, scuba-diving, beach adventures, and culinary explorations — I’ve got a large list of things I’ll be doing next year!
