The Event
What is Crash My Playa?
Crash My Playa is a 4-night all-inclusive concert vacation hosted by country superstar Luke Bryan in Mexico. Crash My Playa, held annually in the beautiful Riviera Maya, features two nights of headlining performances by Luke Bryan, with two more headlining performances by other celebrated country stars on a stage that sits along the Caribbean Sea. Past performers include Blake Shelton, Little Big Town, Dierks Bentley, Chris Stapleton, Sam Hunt, Dustin Lynch and more.
After you grab your Crash My Playa package, all you need to do is get yourself to Cancun. We’ll pick you up at the airport in one of our private Crash My Playa shuttles and whisk you away to your Caribbean concert vacation. You may reserve a room at our host resort the Barceló, or choose to stay at one of our other carefully selected hotels. Our resorts feature a variety of restaurants, multiple bars and daily activities, all included in your package price. Each night, guests staying at the Barceló Maya will take a short stroll through the resort property to our carefully curated concert venue, Playa Azul. If you are staying at one of our other properties, our private Crash My Playa shuttles will bring you directly to the venue.
Concerts take place at Playa Azul, just a short walk from Barceló Maya Beach Resort. Each night, that sandy shoreline will become home to an intimate crowd of country music lovers, who will experience the most spectacular all-inclusive country music getaway imaginable. Daytime poolside performances (at select resorts), exciting adventures throughout the Riviera Maya region and much more provide fun in the sun before the lights come up on the beachfront stage. Only a few thousand people will come together to enjoy country music’s brightest star, as Luke Bryan goes from sold out stadium shows of 50,000+ fans to this once-in-a-lifetime intimate concert experience on the beach.
Join us for the hottest country music destination event of the year!

The Riviera Maya
The Riviera Maya is a famous section of coastline along Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula stretching from Puerto Morelos in the North, to Sian Ka’an biosphere reserve in the South. Surrounded by the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean Sea, the Riviera Maya is a place rich in history and culture, built upon breathtaking and diverse landscapes. From jungle to coast, the Riviera Maya is home to countless marvels such as magnificent barrier reefs and ancient ruins of Mayan cities. There is no shortage of sites to see or adventures to embark on in this spectacular region of Mexico.
The coastal city of Tulum, built in the 13th century, was once a thriving trading center of the Mayan civilization. It was one of the last cities that remained inhabited by the Mayans, surviving 70 years after the Spanish occupation, and is one of the most well-preserved archaeological sites in the Yucatan. Nowadays, Tulum is famous for its sugar white sandy beaches, aqua clear waters, and a great restaurant and bar scene with authentic local cuisine and a less touristy feel. Every year, visitors flock to Tulum to explore the ruins and wander along the gorgeous beaches. Rich in history and natural beauty, Tulum is a can’t-miss destination during your trip to the Riviera Maya.
