Palm Tree Festival Cabo Announced – Ft Kygo, Gryffin, and more

Scheduled December 2 though 6, Kygo‘s own Palm Tree Music Festival getaway will touch down in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The upcoming five-day event expands on the blueprint laid by Kygo earlier this summer with Palm Tree Fest’s first rendition in New York in August. With the tropical paradise comes a lineup of top-tier talent across a multitude of genres, including a performance by Kygo himself, along with sets by Autograf, a DJ set from Sofi Tukker, Shallou, Loud Luxury, and a special guest appearance by Macklemore.

Beachside beats and pool deck parties come standard, though Palm Tree Music Festival is also promising both a sunset Kygo performance and a Kygo acoustic set, morning yoga, Tropical Brunch with Sam Feldt, a boat party with Frank Walker, whale watching, exclusive merchandise pop-ups, volleyball, and if all of that isn’t convincing enough, attendees can also partake in a golf tournament alongside the Festival’s founder himself. While many of the events will be held primarily at ME Cabo hotel, guests also have the option of other luxury villa and hotel packages.

Ticket are on sale here. For Villa and VIP Upgrades, guests can contact concierge@pollen.co to learn more.

Best Kygo Songs of All Time – Top 5 Tracks

Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll, better known by his stage name Kygo, is a Norwegian DJ, songwriter and record producer. He garnered international attention with his December 2013 remix of the track “I See Fire” by Ed Sheeran and his December 2014 single “Firestone”. In late 2015, he became the fastest artist to reach 1 billion streams on Spotify, and by June 2016, he had reached 2 billion streams on Spotify.

Kygo has since released several singles, such as “Stole the Show”, “Here for You” and “Stay” in 2015, “It Ain’t Me” in 2017 and a 2019 remix of “Higher Love” performed by Whitney Houston, all of which have debuted on several international charts. His debut album, Cloud Nine, was released on May 13, 2016.

“Carry On” is a song with British singer Rita Ora, released as a single from the soundtrack to the 2019 film, Pokémon: Detective Pikachu. It has streamed 174 million times in Spotify.

On 6 December 2019, Kygo collaborated with The Chainsmokers on a track, named “Family”.

On January 20, 2020 Kygo, via his socials, teased an unreleased Avicii track known as “Forever Yours”. This track was first played by Avicii at Ultra Music Festival 2016 but never completed during his lifetime so Kygo gave his tropical touches to the song after Sandro Cavazza his fellow collaborator sent him the track and with due consent from Tim’s family.

On March 23, 2020, Kygo announced via his social media that he had completed his third album titled Golden Hour. The first single, “Like It Is” with Zara Larsson and Tyga, was released on 27 March 2020.

Kygo’s stage name is derived from the first 2 letters of his first and last names, and he got the idea for the name after a school computer system automatically generated the word “Kygo” as his login username.

Kygo has a residency with Wynn Nightlife in Las Vegas – where he plays shows at Encore Beach Club and XS.

1) NYE 2018 w/ Nervo @ W South Beach

WET Pool at W South Beach is excited to announce world-renowned electronic music talent Nervo will be headlining an unforgettable start of a new year.  For the past several years Australian sisters Liv and Mim have been a regular mainstay in the World Top 100, and 2017 proved there’s no stopping their shine.   DJ Mag caught up with the busy duo to ask what they’ve been up to this year: “Touring like crazy. Think we’re nudging 200 shows this year. We had our NERVONation parties in Miami, Austria and Ibiza at Ushuaia, which have all been amazing. We have been busy working on new music and recently got a major sync with iPhone 8 for a track we did with Sofi Tukker called ‘Best Friend’.”  Partygoers will be elevated to an oasis of wonderment include premium open bar from 9:00 PM to midnight, champagne toast, and party favors; VIP table service packages inclusive of top-shelf spirits will range from $1,800 – $15,000.

Time: 9:00 PM – 4:30 AM

2) NYE 2018 w/ G-Eazy + Halsey @ E11even

Is there anything that gives us more hope for 2018 than two young people in love?  Platinum recording artists and new paramours G-Eazy and Halsey took the 2017 radio charts by storm with their recent hit collaboration “Him & I,” but it’s the awwww-so-sweet music video for the song that everyone is talking about.  Miami snowbirds will join the two love birds as they perform live at E11even to ring in the new year; special guest DJ Irie will provide the dance beats.  Other perks include open bar from 9PM – 11PM, passed hors d’oeuvres, and champagne toast at midnight.

3) Alesso New Year’s Eve @ Story

On the heels of one the most ballyhooed performances at Miami’s Ultra Music Festival this past March, superstar DJ Alesso will have the honor of leading the fine folks of Story into the new year.  About his 2017, Alesso says: “The last year, I’ve been just in a very creative environment. I used to just think about what will work on a dance floor at a festival. Now, I try to put out a song that makes me really feel [something], that’s meant to come out through your headphones when you’re on your way to work, or off work in the car, [or] being with your friends. I’m just trying to make the most of each song wherever it goes, not trying to push it to a dance floor direction. If I want it to be a dance floor version down the road, I’ll just remix it.”   Expect the Swedish wunderkind to keep inspiring the world in 2018 and beyond, and expect one of Miami Beach’s most bumping nightclubs to party well beyond the stroke of midnight and into the first dawn of 2018.
