The 2025 St. Kitts Music Festival is shaping up to be the most successful in its history, with early ticket sales reaching unprecedented levels and hotels nearing full capacity, according to organisers and tourism officials.
With ticket sales beginning on 28th December 2024, early-bird passes have been selling “like wildfire,” said Tivanna Wharton, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Tourism. Wharton continued that even on slower nights, sales had already outpaced previous years. “This may very well be a sold‑out music festival,” she added. Wharton urged currently ticketless patrons to secure their spot before tickets sell out. Online sales could be paused soon, as ground vendors report the passes are moving faster than “hot bread and butter.”
Physical tickets are available across the federation at The Cable-St. Kitts, Horsford’s Valu Mart, St. Kitts–Nevis Lottery outlets, and the Tourism Ministry office at Pelican Mall. During the festival week (23–28 June), tickets will also be sold at the St. Kitts Marriott Resort. Show-night tickets may be limited; if available, booth sales will begin at 5 pm.
VIP and VVIP tickets have also sold out or are nearing capacity. Express Events’ VIP access has “pretty much sold out,” with possible availability only for Thursday night, while the White Sands VVIP lounge by Carambola is “near capacity.”
The festival’s success is already reflected in the hospitality sector, with hotels in St. Kitts fully booked and many visitors turning to Nevis for accommodation. Wharton said about 80% of early-bird ticket buyers are international visitors, and urged Airbnb hosts to list properties immediately. She highlighted that this kind of regional and global support is what the festival was created to foster.
Preparations are well underway at Warner Park Stadium, where teams are working ahead of schedule to ensure the venues are ready for the three-night event, which takes place from 26–28 June 2025.
