This venue will be custom designed and built for those attending Departure, alongside two further new venue space build-outs, making this a unique and exclusive experience for all in attendance.

We celebrate this cycle with Departure.

Beyond the music itself, travellers 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.
