This Music Festival Is Being Dubbed the Most Beautiful One Ever—Here's Why
Sorry, Coachella.

Music festivals in deserts are so last year. Image everything you love about a good music festival—the incredible artists, the electric atmosphere, the non-stop fun—and ask yourself how could it possibly get any better? The SXM Festival answered our seemingly impossible question. Located in the heart of the Caribbean on the island of Saint Martin, the SXM Festival is the perfect mix of international DJs, blissful ocean views, and intimate jungle soirées. It's the only way to do music festivals: island style.
From sets at Happy Bay Beach to exclusive villa parties, this music festival truly needs #NoFilter.
And you can't forget the unreal beach sunsets...
Bringing you the best DJs from all around the world—Bob Moses, Black Coffee, Soul Clap, just to name a few—in the most intimate setting, SXM Festival's 2nd annual music fest was a definite success. See you on the beach in 2018!
