We hear you like a good party. As luck would have it, one of our editors is helping throw a damn good party going down on a beach in Baja called Wakoia—three days of DJs noon to sunrise, tasty-as-hell local food, cool art, a pansexi salon, and friends from both sides of the border. Getting there is easy, tix are cheap, and you can stay at the venue, so you never have to leave the party.Wakoia's not just a festival—it's *your* festival. The party is taking over a low-key beachfront resort for you to disconnect with some seriously good people in a beautiful place. No shoes, no shirt, and no bottle service, baby. If you’re looking for a big, glamorous festival to flex on Instagram, this ain’t it. The guest list is small and the venue is intimate, so you can actually make friends, instead of lose them in the crowd or on the trek back to the car. Whatever the time of day, you can step out and there'll be a party—or step away to relax and unplug.YEAH you do.
