Festival Sayulita: Film, Music, Spirits & Surf! – Jan. 14-18

The Festival Sayulita is back! Now in its second year, it brings its trademark Film, Music, Spirits & Surf.
From January 14-18, a perfect mix of art, sports, gastronomy, sun and sand will take place at Riviera Nayarit’s hippie chic enclave.
Another new activity is the 5-10K Fun Run, which will take place Thursday morning, the first day of the festival.
Regarding the Longboard Surf Tournament, Villarubia announced it’s the largest in Latin America and will include the participation of local notables such as Fernando Stalla and Javier “Bicho” Jiménez, as well as the Riviera Nayarit crew and international stars such as Alex Knost, among others. The tournament will be held on Saturday with a prize of $10,000 USD.
Event goers will have access to tequila, beer, mescal and Mexican wine in order to support domestic producers. Of course, the regional gastronomy is a must, holding court on Thursday night with a Wine Pairing and on Sunday with a Master Tasting during the surf awards ceremony.
And, per tradition, there will be film presentations in different spots, with a place of honor held by the big screen right on the beach.
The Dirty Heads will headline Saturday’s big concert (pun intended).
