SXM Festival has unveiled the first wave of artists for its 10th edition, set to take place March 17-21, 2027 on the Caribbean island of St. Martin. Bob Sinclar, MEDUZA, Sasha, Claptone, Dombresky, Franky Rizardo and Brunello lead the initial lineup announcement, with additional names including Guy Gerber, Patrick Topping, Dennis Cruz, Chelina Manuhutu, Deer Jade, Matt Sassari and Max Styler also confirmed.
The festival, which launched in 2016, is known for spreading its programming across multiple venues rather than a single site, with events held on beaches, at villas, in clubs and on hilltops across both the French and Dutch sides of the island. According to the festival, past editions have drawn attendees from more than 58 countries and have featured artists such as Carl Cox, Jamie Jones, BLOND:ISH, Bonobo and Richie Hawtin.
Festival founder Julian Prince said the event has never aimed to be the largest festival but rather to create lasting experiences for attendees. The 10th edition follows the festival’s recovery from Hurricane Irma in 2017 and a pandemic-related pause.
