Slightly Stoopid have announced the return of their fan-favorite winter destination vacation, Closer to the Sun, will take place at Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya over four days and nights from Dec. 7 through 11. Since its inception, the event has created a close-knit community of "friends like you" who come for the music and stay for the beachside winds – making for a gathering that quickly sells out.
The event will feature multiple performances by the events hosts along with a lineup of performances by Dirty Heads, Stick Figure, Pepper, Steel Pulse, Common Kings, The Movement, Little STranger, DENM and The Skints. Notably, Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe will also stake the stage with members of Slightly Stoopid for a special tribute to the Beastie Boys.
Along with pristinely produced music from the mid-afternoon into the night, Closer to the Sun will set guests up with opportunities to explore the Caribbean coastline that exists in the oasis that is Riviera Maya, located between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. Within the Hard Rock Hotel, guests will be able to enjoy convenient bar service, complimentary craft cocktails, and specialty-curated food stations. A limited number of rooms will also be available at the UNICO 20°87° Resort, a luxury resort just a 15-minute ride from Hard Rock. Guests staying there will have access to complimentary door-to-door shuttle service to Hard Rock for event-curated shows and activities.
All-inclusive packages for returning Closer to the Sun guests will be available via a pre-sale on April 25. If rooms remain, public on sale will begin on April 26 at 12:00 p.m. ET here.
