Global hitmaker DJ Snake will perform in Saint Martin for the first time on Saturday, January 2, 2027, at Princess Casino Port de Plaisance. The open-air concert will bring one of electronic music’s most recognizable names to the island for a night connecting residents, visitors and fans from across the Caribbean and internationally.
The French-Algerian DJ and producer has built a worldwide following with records that cross genres and borders: “Turn Down for What” with Lil Jon; “Lean On” with Major Lazer and MØ; “Let Me Love You,” featuring Justin Bieber; and “Taki Taki,” featuring Selena Gomez, Ozuna and Cardi B. His catalogue brings electronic music into conversation with hip-hop, pop and Latin sounds, reaching audiences far beyond the dance floor.
From his beginnings in the Paris suburbs to international headline stages and a landmark performance atop the Arc de Triomphe, DJ Snake has made cultural crossover central to his career. His 2025 album Nomad continues that approach, with collaborators including Travis Scott, Future, J Balvin and Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley. For Saint Martin, his debut brings that international musical perspective to an island with its own rich mix of cultures.
The January 2 event offers an opportunity to begin the year with an artiste whose songs have become shared reference points for fans around the world. Set beside the lagoon, near the Causeway Bridge and across from Princess Juliana International Airport, Port de Plaisance provides a central meeting point for the occasion. The event runs from 8:00pm to 3:00am.
“Our mission is to stimulate the local economy and promote Saint Martin through music,” says Julian Prince of Tuned Productions. “From underground electronic music to Caribbean and urban sounds, we’ve kept expanding the experiences we offer. Welcoming DJ Snake is another step in that journey – giving residents a major international show at home, and giving visitors another reason to discover the island.”
The event is a collaboration between Tuned Productions, MAD Events, Princess Casino and the St. Maarten Tourism Bureau. Tuned Productions – the team behind SXM Festival, MAD Island Festival and Panorama Sessions – brings more than a decade of production experience across Saint Martin and Saint Barthélemy. MAD Events, founded by Saint Martin born promoters and responsible for over 150 events, brings local knowledge and programming expertise. Having worked together for the past few years, the teams are developing a broader programme that supports local businesses and strengthens the island’s international music calendar.
