Viva El Gonzo is the first event of its kind in Cabo, offering a multifaceted experience where music, art, and culture intertwine. The heart of the festival is El Ganzo Oasis, where Goose will perform amidst lush tropical growth, open fields, and elaborate installations. The venue, just steps from the Sea of Cortez, will host multiple stages, pop-up experiences, wellness events, and an eclectic marketplace of local vendors and cuisine, all designed to create a sensory-rich environment that reflects the festival’s “choose your own adventure” ethos.

At nightfall, a short walk from the El Gonzo Oasis leads to Crania, a beachside club that transforms into a post-apocalyptic neon world of art and music. Here, festival-goers can explore immersive installations and dance to rhythmic music that channels the vibrant energy of the West Coast, creating a unique late-night experience. 

Beyond the festival grounds, Viva El Gonzo invites adventurers into the heart of San José del Cabo. Whether exploring the vibrant downtown streets, indulging in world-class dining or casual street food, or embarking on excursions like snorkeling, horseback riding, and hiking, attendees can craft their own unique journey, shaped by the diverse cultural and natural wonders of the region.
