0 1 minute read

Forget about frostbitten nights and layered looks—a new electronic music festival, Destination Unknown: Chicago to Tulum, is flipping the script on January blues.

From January 9-11, this boundary-blurring festival will teleport Chicago’s legendary house music scene to Tulum’s sun-drenched beaches. Windy City legends Green Velvet, Felix da Housecat, Gene Farris and DJ Heather will headline the fest and keep its dancefloors alive under the kind of star-studded sky only a tropical escape can offer.

23 other Chicago-rooted artists have also been confirmed for Destination Unknown, which will take place across a handful of venues in Tulum. According to its organizers, the flagship outing will be hosted by Green Velvet at IT Tulum, an opulent, brand-new beach club located in the heart of the city’s gleaming hotel zone.

Ticket packages promise premium stays, transit to and from the airport and concert venues, and an open invitation to lose yourself in music that’s both homegrown and globally magnetic. Each includes four nights of lodging at a variety of Tulum properties: Motto, Wyndham, Viva, Bakal, Amour, Amira, Eve and Moonlight.
