This spring of 2023 opened with the 6th edition of this world-renowned event.

Despite the presence of several thousand electro music lovers, the festival's organization allows everyone to enjoy these magical moments. From the 300 meters of Happy Bay beach, where two spectacular stages are set up, the music never stops during the SXM Festival, from Boho Beach (Laila's beach club) on house beats, to techno music at Mikonos - Maho Bay.

You can enjoy the extraordinary sight of planes landing on the airport runway, on the Beach Club, on the sound of house drums. Then you can continue dancing by booking a ticket for a boat party or a catamaran cruise dedicated to the SXM Festival. Finally, the must of the Festival: the Villa Party which takes place on Saturdays, in the Sandy line villa, in Les Terres Basses. This wonderful place is the place of predilection for all VIPs, who appreciate this unique villa's incredible infrastructures.
