Damian Lazarus Returns to Tulum with Heavy-Hitting Day Zero Lineup Featuring Jamie Jones & Major Lazer

Damian Lazarus and his Tulum creation, Day Zero, reveal an exciting lineup to coincide with ticket presale.

Earlier this week, tickets went live for Damian Lazarus’ celebrated music festival in Tulum, titled Day Zero, which will take place in September of 2023. Lazarus, a British house icon and full-blown wizard, also dropped the festival’s lineup in addition to opening ticket sales. The event will feature performances from artists such as Bedouin, Damian Lazarus, Dennis Cruz, Major Lazer Sound System, Jamie Jones, Jan Blomqvist, Joseph Capriati, Major League Djz, and many more.

Scrolling through Day Zero’s Instagram page is like teleporting into Damian’s creation – it’s a taste of what listening to house music in a living, breathing jungle would feel like. Acrobatics swing from boughs while lasers illuminate and outline the forest’s friends, creating a rainbow caricature in a mystic new world.

As the festival’s founder and most emblazoned supporter, Damian had a lot to say when speaking on the inspiration for the event. “Day Zero’s inception celebrated new beginnings with the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012, its origin yielding one of the world’s most transformative and acclaimed parties.” Damian continued, “Bringing together the natural, mythic and euphoric, we return to the mystical jungles of Tulum on January 9^th, 2023. This edition will open the twenty-year anniversary season of Damian Lazarus’ groundbreaking Crosstown Rebels imprint, a fitting celebration for one of contemporary house and techno’s most important outfits.”

In his closing remarks, Damian conjured poetry. “Day Zero harnesses the power of performance and production to create its own storytelling universe, lasers spill through historic canopies, alien creatures from the future align with the ancient Mayans, and partygoers are offered new ways to think about and experience space and time. Each moment from sunset to sunrise is soundtracked by the world’s most forward-thinking live acts and selectors…”
