“It's the first time I've come. I've been told about this festival for a long time but I never managed to find the right timing, I come from Berlin, just for that. I had planned to come last year but since it was cancelled, I had to be patient. It's crazy this atmosphere, it's incredible what they managed to produce here. I've been to a lot of electronic music festivals but this one is crazy… I now understand what my friends meant when he talked about a world apart, a unique experience. And this island is beautiful. It's also my first time in the West Indies so yes, I'm completely under the spell of the heavenly landscapes, but there's something extra special. In short, it's a bit of a paradise for the eyes and ears! » Alma
“I was there at the first edition and all the following ones. It was very strange for me not to experience the festival last year, I'm all the more happy that we're back now. The SXM Festival is not just one musical event among many others, it has a soul. I was able to see the evolution of this festival over the previous years, how it grew, how it became even more open to others and to local culture. Many think it's a big machine that settles on the island for a week and that's it, but that's not true. I love partying and meeting new people, it's well known that music brings people together. But during the SXM Festival, we get involved, whether it's contributing to the local economy, introducing new festival-goers to typically local places or participating in initiatives such as beach clean-ups. It's important, and it's the SXM Festival that made me want to do that. » Ted
“I remember my first time, three years ago, I'm not going to lie to you, I didn't get too hooked. I don't know if it's because of the crowd or if it's because I arrived at Happy Bay during a set that musically left me stoic but I had a mixed impression at first. Afterwards, I came back and was caught up in the excitement that this festival creates when you really immerse yourself in it. It will never cease to amaze me in reality, it still does that to me tonight when all this atmosphere is now familiar to me. As for the music, I don't know if it's because it was canceled last year, but the line-up is heavy. I made my program on the festival app and I'm going to have to cut myself in two or even three to see everything. But that's the reason for the glory! » Tibus
“I accompany a friend, I thought I was not a big fan of techno but I think I just fell in love with electronic music. The artists who mix on these magnificent stages do not make you want to dance, you are already dancing before you even think about it. There's an amazing thing going on here. The lights, the layout of the stages, the decor… I had never seen that in my life. I work in events and I can tell you, it's not just decoration, it fits so well with the soul of Saint Martin, its environment, the way of thinking and living, it coordinates perfectly with the music too. I'm serious, I'm having a life-changing experience. And musically, I want to discover everything! I let myself be advised by my friend but I also go there by feeling, I follow the rhythm! » Jade
