Tucked away in the breathtaking Grenadine archipelago lies the island of Bequia, a Caribbean gem that comes alive each year with the soulful rhythms of the Bequia Music Festival. From January 30 to February 2, 2025, this intimate, sun-soaked event offers a harmonious blend of world-class performances and unspoiled island charm.
The festival’s stages are as enchanting as the music itself. Centered around iconic, intimate venues–a charming, boutique hotel right on the turquoise waters and a beachfront bar–the event combines toe-tapping performances with breathtaking ocean views. Here, festival goers can treat themselves to a truly Caribbean experience, lounging under the stars as the sounds of steel pans and soulful guitars mingle with the gentle lapping of the waves.
While the official 2025 lineup remains under wraps, the Bequia Music Festival is renowned for its eclectic mix of talent. Past years have featured performances by the Elite Steel Orchestra, energetic reggae acts, and jazz quartets, as well as celebrated DJs who keep the party going late into the night. The festival’s ethos celebrates both emerging local talent and international stars, creating an inclusive atmosphere that feels both exclusive and accessible.
Beyond the festival, Bequia offers endless opportunities to unwind and explore.
