World renowned music, travel, art and culture series Gates Of Agartha is heading deep into the Mexican jungle where ancient Mayan civilization once thrived. The acclaim series’s next event from January 16th to 19th 2025 is in Tulum, nestled on the Caribbean coast of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, and offers a two day festival experience as well as an exclusive Lagoon Opening Ceremony and party and Cenote Closing Party for those lucky few who purchase the Full Experience.
Gates of Agartha is a concept that draws its inspiration from the mythical underground kingdom of Agartha, where ancient secrets and wisdom are guarded. Its debut was widely acclaimed as the Best New Regional Festival last year in Croatia.
The series is all about offering unique cultural experiences in unusual locations with a rich sense of history and is a spin off of the main event Echoes From Agartha Cappadocia, which is an impossibly beautiful festival in an ancient land in the heart of Anatolia, Turkey.
Renowned for its well-preserved ruins, Tulum serves as a gateway to the rich history and culture of the Mayans. Gates Of Agartha will take place in the lush surroundings of Zamna, a venue known for its natural beauty and mystical ambiance and one that will be transformed into a realm where the spirits of the past meet the energy of the present.
For this special event, the sacred lands of the Mayan jungle become the stage for a four-day festival amidst cenotes, ancient trees, and the echoes of a civilization that has left an indelible mark on history. It is a place where attendees can enjoy a deep connection to the natural and spiritual world in what will be a truly immersive experience that honors the legacy of the Mayan people.
This celebration of music, history, and art will feature production design inspired by ancient Mayan aesthetics and culture, blended with Agartha’s ancient futuristic design. Various types of accommodation packages provide a full, immersive experience and whether you choose to stay in boutique villas, or scenic jungle lodges, all accommodations come with added perks.
This once in a lifetime journey begins on Thursday January 16th with an exclusive and intimate Lagoon Opening Ceremony for 400 Full Experience package guests. It takes place at sunset at a serene lagoon where you will connect with nature, water, land, and the sky as the ancient Mayans once did with a ceremony that blends Mayan traditions with futuristic aesthetics before a private party under the stars.
Friday January 17th and Saturday 18th are the Big Festival Nights at Zamna with two monumental parties hosting 4,500 people each night for an immersive journey through music, art, and history. Expect world-renowned DJs, breathtaking visuals, and a transformative atmosphere as the energy of the jungle fused with cutting-edge technology to create an unforgettable celebration.
Guests are then treated to a special ticketed Closing Party from 10 am until sunset on Sunday January 19th at a secret Cenote Club. It takes place in a sacred space surrounded by the natural beauty of the cenote and encourages you to reflect on the shared experiences of the previous days and celebrate the end of the magical adventure in the heart of the Mayan jungle.
Gates Of Agartha Tulum features immersive programming and the chance to truly soak up authentic Mayan culture and the wisdom embedded in this land. It will be another reactivation of an ancient culture that will leave the mind, body and souls truly enriched.
