Attendees will be guided from their hotels into DEPARTURE’S patulous venues, all of which will be completely enclosed from the public for the ultimate intimate experience. This is truly a unique and once-in-a-lifetime experience! The entire strip of Playa del Carmen beach and hotels will transform into DEPARTURE’s exclusive, saturnalia, complete with custom-built stages and poolside day soirees. Perfect for your travel plans!
There’s so much more than music though!
Beyond the music itself, travelers heading to Mexico can revive themselves each morning with daily yoga and meditation at the beachfront Grand Hyatt, swim laps in each of the hotels’ swimming pools, and eat their way through the gourmet food options available.
