About Us - Sixthman

Sixthman festivals tear down walls between artists and fans by creating community-inspired vacation experiences at resorts and at sea.

Since 2001, Sixthman has set the stage for moments that make life rock, serving over 300,000 guests on over 150 unforgettable vacations on sand and at sea with their favorite artists, athletes, actors, comedians and brands. These carefully curated, intimate events bring non-stop performances, artist collaborations, in depth panels and Q&As, fan-artist activities, museums and overall truly immersive experiences that celebrate community and change expectations of what a vacation can be. Sixthman’s domestic home port of Miami brings escapes for guests to dream destinations in the Virgin Islands, Belize, Honduras, Mexico, and The Bahamas. In 2019, Sixthman expanded their festivals at sea to Europe, sailing from Barcelona, Spain to exotic Mediterranean ports. 2022 will bring sailings through the Greek Isles. In addition to festivals at sea, in 2019 Sixthman brought their innovative vacation concept to world class, all-inclusive resorts in the Dominican Republic and will do the same in Mexico in 2022. In 2020, Sixthman Services was launched to support other event holders with a suite of on-site and virtual event management services and enhanced experiences. 2022 has brought the organization’s first foray into immersive Music Camp experiences in partnership with Rock-n-Roll Fantasy Camp.

This Is How We Do It

Promise

We Promise

We promise to deliver the best festival experience imaginable. We know you have limited vacation time, and we value your choice to spend it with us. We’ll strive to make your few days with us among the best you’ll have all year.

Collaborate

We Collaborate

We collaborate with our artists, our partners and most importantly, our guests, to create an experience you won't find anywhere else. We’re not fans of conventional. Your vacation is tailored to suit your passions and interests.

Innovate

We Innovate

We innovate by introducing fresh ideas to our new and established communities and listening to our guests’ unique perspective to shape each event. We’re the Pioneers of festival cruising, and will continue to push the limits of our industry - at sea and on land.

Build

We Build

We build like-minded communities. The idea of sailing with your favorite bands may bring you to vacation with Sixthman initially, but the experience will keep you coming back. Over 50% of our guests return year after year.

Discover

We Discover

We discover new artists, introduce them to communities, and ignite passions you never knew you had. We create an atmosphere where emerging bands can captivate an audience and instantly create lifelong fans. Expect the unexpected. You might just discover your next favorite artist in an elevator.

Serve

We Serve

We serve our guests, our bands and our partners as we would serve our team. We want to make sure you feel invited, informed and excited from the moment you make your reservation.

We also serve soft-serve.

High Five

We High Five

We high five you. All of you. It’s the official greeting of Sixthman, and you should expect it the moment your vacation begins. (Tip: look at the elbow.)

Current high five tally: 298,967

Play

We Play

We play. From music to games, we’ve got it covered. Having fun is what life’s all about. We’ll work hard so you can play hard… and LIVE LOUD.
