El festival de música dance underground de renombre mundial celebra su 15 ° aniversario del 12 al 18 de Enero de 2022 en Tamarindo, Costa Rica. Con los mejores DJ / productores de house y techno, el festival también albergará presentaciones de sellos y marcas de fiestas en múltiples lugares y escenarios en Tamarindo y la jungla durante siete días y noches. “The BPM Festival,” que significa “Bartenders, Promoters, Musicians” fue creado en 2008 y se ha realizado en Costa Rica, México, Portugal y Tel Aviv, y se ha convertido en un evento obligado para cualquier amante de la música con un gusto exigente por la música underground de calidad.
To celebrate their 15th anniversary, The BPM Festival will be returning to Tamarindo, Costa Rica January 12-18th, 2022 with a massive lineup featuring debut BPM performances from Jeff Mills, Ricardo Villalobos, and Anfisa Letyago, and returning sets from favorites, Jamie Jones, Loco Dice, Michael Bibi, Marco Carola, Nicole Moudaber, Skream, The Martinez Brothers & nearly 100 other DJs. Tickets are now available for the full week long 7-day event starting at just $299 USD each! The festival will also see unique showcases from Cuttin' Headz, Detroit Love, Luciano & Friends, Mood vs Mindshake, SCI+TEC, Trust vs Moon Harbour & many more.
Known for its lush ecotourism, the surf town of Tamarindo is the prime location for exploring Costa Rica’s abundant nature, exemplified by its many national parks, beaches, and jungles. The tropical landscape will provide the perfect backdrop to the latest chapter in The BPM Festival’s story, and serve as a continuation of their knack for blending world-class talent with picture-perfect locations. With tourism now open and thriving since 2020, Costa Rica is warmly welcoming international tourists.
Over the years, BPM has made a commitment to host the best in techno and house, boasting editions in picturesque locales such as Mexico, Portugal, and Tel Aviv, as well as satellite events in Bali, Brazil, Dubai, Ibiza, and more. Headliners making their return appearance in Tamarindo include Chus, Davide Squillace, Dubfire, Loco Dice, Luciano, Matthias Tanzmann, Michael Bibi, Nicole Moudaber, Paco Osuna, Rony Seikaly, and Skream.
Showcases returning to BPM’s Tamarindo edition include Detroit Love, Ibiza Sonica, Kaluki, Luciano & Friends, Mood vs Mindshake, Rony Seikaly’s Majaninia, SCI+TEC, Seran Bendecidos, SlapFunk, and Vatos Locos. Those looking to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Matthias Tanzmann’s Moon Harbour imprint will also be able to ring in the celebrations at the much-anticipated Trust vs Moon Harbour showcase. Debut BPM Costa Rica showcases set to be featured are comprised of Robbie Akbal’s Akbal Music, Sydney Blu’s The Blu Party, and The Martinez Brothers’ Cuttin' Headz, with debut BPM showcases including Jesse Calosso’s Boogeyman, Amsterdam-based house imprint PIV, Carlo Lio’s Rawthentic, Michael Bibi’s Solid Grooves, Yaya’s Tamango vs. Neverdogs’ Bamboleo Records (Tamango making its debut in specific), and Ricardo Villalobos and Sonja Moonear’s We Are What We Are.
Those traveling internationally for BPM Costa Rica will have the option of flying into either Liberia International Airport (LIR), which is approximately 60 minutes via car from Tamarindo, or San José’s primary international airport, San José International Airport (SJO), a 3-4 hour car ride away. International attendees must follow all COVID-19 entry guidelines set forth by Costa Rica before entering the country, which includes completing Costa Rica’s online Health Pass form at salud.go.cr and securing mandatory travel insurance.
The BPM Festival will be offering flexible ticketing policies for the 2022 edition, such as credit, resale, and refund options in the event that one might not be able to attend. Those opting for credit will have their passes rolled over to next year’s festival, and those wishing to resell or transfer their passes can do so at face value via the Xtixs platform. Additionally, The BPM Festival will be providing an 85% refund within 30 days if one chooses to pursue this option — further information can be found on The BPM Festival’s official ticketing policy page via thebpmfestival.com/faq-passes-costa-rica.
The BPM Festival is a must-attend event that began as a gathering of bartenders, promoters, and musicians in 2008. In a short amount of time, it’s grown to be a massive staple on the global festival calendar, with each annual edition being held in Playa del Carmen, Mexico until 2017. Celebrating its 15th year anniversary at its newest flagship event, the brand will continue the festivities throughout the remainder of 2022 with new events in various locations to be announced.
The BPM Festival invites their BPM familia to their own private jungled oasis, one which is designed for dancing across multiple stages and multiple nights, all built out of natural elements such as bamboo, wood, and foliage. All transformative experiences require careful curation to truly make an impact. Further information venues, on-site health measures, and additional lineup details are soon to follow.
