August 26, 2024

Costa Rica’s Ocaso Festival has released a house-heavy lineup and new location for 2025, with headliners The Martinez Brothers, Chris Lake, and more.

Ocaso Festival is coming back for 2025 with a new location within Costa Rica, plus a jam-packed lineup. For its eighth edition, the festival takes place January 31-February 1, for a weekend of incredible electronic music right next to the beach.

The festival is set to take place at Playa Hermosa in Jacó, Costa Rica. Just add house and techno music to one of the country’s premier surf beaches for the ultimate festival experience.

This year’s lineup features Chris Lake as a headliner, for his debut in Central America. The label boss will bring his Black Book Records to Ocaso Festival for a stage takeover.

Joining him on making Costa Rica debuts are The Martinez Brothers, Kasablanca, and Riordan. This year’s lineup also features Vintage Culture, whose career is skyrocketing this year.

The Brazilian producer has a busy year in progress, with several stints all over Europe, including the famed party isle of Ibiza. The lineup also features several local artists from Costa Rica.

The new location is just minutes from major Costa Rica attractions, like La Fortuna’s waterfalls and Manuel Antonio. It’s in Jaco, which has a bustling nightlife, making it an ideal city to host this major event.

One unique feature of the festival is that attendees can participate in local excursions. These group tours showcase Costa Rica’s natural beauty, with fellow festival friends along for the ride.

The festival offers additional packages during the weekend, with rides on ATVs, catamarans, and crocodile tours. Complete your Costa Rica adventure with Ocaso Festival, and beyond!

Since its inception in 2017, Ocaso is on a mission to highlight festival principles of PLUR—peace, love, unity, and respect—with an iconic dance music lineup. Ultimately, the result is a community-forward event in the gorgeous Central America country. Tickets for Ocaso Festival 2025 are on sale now.
