SXM Festival continues to raise the bar for its 2025 edition with a new wave of lineup additions. Taking place on the picturesque island of Saint Martin from March 12-16, the festival has added marquee names like Danny Tenaglia, Mark Knight, Tinlicker, Paax, and more to an already impressive roster. Known for its seamless fusion of music, art, and culture, SXM Festival promises another unparalleled experience across five unforgettable days and nights.
These fresh additions emphasize SXM’s dedication to blending renowned names with rising talent. Danny Tenaglia, a marathon DJ and house music legend, joins the mix, alongside Toolroom Records’ head Mark Knight, who has built a reputation as one of the most influential figures in house music.
Fans can also look forward to a DJ set from Tinlicker, bringing their melodic touch, while Afro house innovators Paax add global flair to the lineup. Joining them are standout names like YASS, co-founder of Haute Couture, and Miami-based DJ Yanik Coen, further diversifying the musical landscape.
The festival will also see performances from Malta’s melodic house artist The Element, Vagalume Tulum resident Vite, and Kadosh, known for his deeply emotive soundscapes. These artists enhance an already stacked lineup, which includes previously announced acts such as Âme, Camelphat, Nicole Moudaber, and Sébastien Léger.
SXM Festival’s immersive showcases also stand out this year, with Defected Records celebrating its 25th anniversary, alongside curated events from FRAU BLAU and Indo Warehouse. These unique showcases will further elevate the festival’s reputation for blending music with innovative experiences.
Notably, SXM has done away with its VIP program for 2025, emphasizing its ethos of community and inclusion. For those seeking premium options, bottle service areas remain available, and the festival ensures special requests can be accommodated by contacting info@sxmfestival.com.
With the addition of new venues and an expanded cultural footprint across Saint Martin, SXM Festival continues to define itself as one of the most anticipated events in the global electronic music scene. Tickets for the five-day experience are available now, with three-day passes also on sale at sxmfestival.com.

Raised in upstate New York, I was always a big fan of music but never really listened to electronic music. Within the first month of attending Florida State University and meeting some new friends, I was introduced to the rave scene. After seeing Ekali at my first show, I was instantly hooked. Since then, I have dived into every subgenre of electronic music, picked up DJing, and mixed for clubs and different entertainment events in Tallahassee. Once graduating with degrees in marketing and hospitality, I was hired for a sales position. However, I recently decided to leave my sales job to pursue my dream of working in the music industry. Currently, I run Magnetic Magazine's Melodic Techno Charts, along with my role as a PR and marketing specialist for different artists and labels. Some of my favorite artists are REZZ, Kyle Watson, TOBEHONEST, San Pacho, Josh Baker, HUGEL, ARTBAT, Vintage Culture, Ganja White Night, CamelPhat, Green Velvet, Jungle, Milky Chance, Paco Versailles, Franc Moody, and RÜFUS DU SOL. My favorite festivals are Hulaween (by far), EDC Orlando, and all the different venues during Miami Music Week. Outside of music, I love sports (especially hockey, soccer, tennis, basketball, and spike ball), going to the movies, working out, sushi, Chick-fil-A, food in general, and hanging with my dog Maui and my cat Loki. Feel free to reach out to me via my email or on IG, I love expanding my network of friends and business opportunities!
