As winter approaches, both snowbirds and sun-seekers can celebrate: The BPM Festival is returning with a stellar phase one lineup. After three wildly successful editions in the lush surroundings of Costa Rica, house and techno enthusiasts are gearing up to reunite from January 8–12 for the 2025 edition.

For the first time ever, BPM will touch down in its newest paradise: Playa Avellanas. With a stunning blend of beach and jungle, this fresh location promises an unforgettable backdrop for some of techno’s biggest names. The phase one reveal already boasts over 40 international acts, offering a mix of established legends and emerging talents. Heavy-hitters like Adriatique, ARTBAT, and CAMELPHAT are poised to deliver peak-hour energy in the jungle, while live sets from Cobblestone Jazz and Rodriguez Jr. will fully immerse festival-goers in a sensory experience.

With the phase two lineup just around the corner, BPM is offering a perfect escape from the winter blues. Check out the full phase one lineup below. Festival passes and more information are available on the official BPM website.
