The Mexican electronic
music festival returns for a
monumental celebration to
mark a decade since its launch.
Marking its 10-year anniversary in 2017,
Mexico's coveted BPM festival is making its
monumental return to Playa Del Carmen next
month. Exhibiting a whole collective of already-
announced prominent electronic talent, it's
apparent the line-up is showing no signs of
slowing down.
Following both his appearances at BPM, and
an unforgettable set for Boiler Room in Tulum
last year, Solomun is returning to Mexico to
kick off the festival's closing weekend. Listed as
Solomun +1, excitement is rife as his residency
in Pacha last summer saw his 'plus ones' feature
headliners in their own right such as DJ Tennis,
Dixon and Joseph Capriati.
Established industry names including Pete
Tong, Carl Cox and Jamie Jones will also
be featuring alongside creative immersive
experiences such as Wolf + Lamb and Soul
Clap's Crew Love, and widely acclaimed party
heavy-hitter Elrow who are set to close the
festival with an explosion of colour.
Ticket holders are not only granted access to
all listed events during their wristband's validity,
but also provided discounts at more than 125
local businesses; and the ability to chop and
change between venues provides an element
of freedom and fluidity that other festivals just
don't give.
BPM festival runs between the 6th and the 15th
January.
