However, the talent doesn’t stop there. Ocaso is bringing even more underground heroes to the forefront. Vintage Culture will capture the crowd with a headlining performance. Afrohouse legend Maz will light up the beautiful shores of Costa Rica with his infectious rhythms. In addition, you’ll also catch Layla Benitez, a force in the house scene.
Ocaso is setting itself apart in more ways. For starters, moving to Playa Hermosa brings the perfect beach backdrop. Plus, with the shimmering Pacific Ocean as your playground, Ocaso promises to elevate your festival experience beyond the music. Additionally, the new location is close to some of Costa Rica’s most iconic attractions, including Manuel Antonio and La Fortuna’s stunning waterfalls. After two days of dancing your heart out, recharge by immersing yourself in nature’s wonders.
Speaking of nature, Ocaso has some pretty epic post-festival excursions lined up. Attendees can connect with fellow festival-goers through group tours to breathtaking spots like the Arenal Volcano, La Fortuna’s hot springs, and the Corcovado National Park. Want to explore Jaco?

PLUR
Ocaso is all about the vibe. The festival stays true to its core values of Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect (PLUR.) PLUR is more than a tagline; it’s the heartbeat of Ocaso. What started as a small gathering of 800-900 people in Tamarindo has grown into a major event for music lovers. Despite the growth, Ocaso has kept its underground roots intact. Attendance is capped to maintain that cozy, intimate atmosphere.
Whether you’re a local or a traveler, Ocaso created a space where people from all walks of life come together to express themselves freely. You won’t feel crowded here, just embraced by the warmth of like-minded souls and the beats of world-class artists.
