Why BTW Is a Cultural Hive That Transcends Borders

BTW Music Festival is buzzing to life for the first time this November 14�17, 2025 in Puerto Pe�asco, Sonora. Set along the serene coastline where the desert meets the sea, BTW (short for Bees, Trees, Water) is a three-day camping music festival grounded in purpose, sustainability, and artistic celebration. Created by the same passionate team behind Bee�s Houzz pop-up parties in Southern California, BTW is designed to be intimate, intentional, and impactful�uniting people around music, art, and shared values.

This isn�t just a weekend of dancing�it�s a real-world movement. Here�s what to expect at BTW Festival�s inaugural edition:

�A Curated Lineup of Electronic and Soulful Sounds

Music is at the core of BTW, with a lineup designed to move your body and stir your soul. Expect an eclectic mix of underground electronic, house, and globally inspired dance music, all delivered through a top-tier sound system in a natural setting.

While the full artist lineup will be announced closer to the event, the programming is intentionally curated by the Bee�s Houzz collective, known for their vibe-forward, community-centered shows across Southern California. Past Bee�s Houzz events have featured rising electronic acts, live musicians, and genre-bending DJs who prioritize connection over clout.

Whether you�re grooving on the beach during a golden hour set or catching a sunrise performance surrounded by new friends, the music at BTW is designed to create flow, resonance, and community. You�re not just attending a show�you�re joining a shared sonic experience.

�Immersive Art and Live Visuals

BTW is built with artists in mind. Throughout the festival grounds, you�ll find visual experiences that go beyond d�cor�this is art you feel.

Confirmed installations include:

  • Live mural painting�by regional Mexican and U.S.-based artists
  • Interactive visual pieces�that invite attendees to co-create
  • Themed art zones�tied to the �Bees, Trees, Water� pillars of the event

From large-scale sculptures to projection art at night, BTW is transforming raw land into a pop-up gallery under the stars. Art is not just a backdrop here�it�s woven into the festival�s identity.

These installations are not only beautiful�they�re purpose-driven. Each piece is created to reflect the festival�s commitment to sustainability, bi-national unity, and cultural celebration.

�Food Vendors with Local Flavor and Soul

Food at BTW isn�t an afterthought�it�s a key part of the festival�s cultural story. The culinary lineup will spotlight vendors from both the Sonoran region and Southern California, with a strong emphasis on fresh ingredients and regional authenticity.

Expect:

  • Authentic Mexican cuisine, including tacos, tamales, elote, and more
  • Plant-based and vegetarian options�to fuel your dancefloor energy
  • Artisan snacks and treats, perfect for late-night cravings or post-swim nibbles

What makes the food at BTW special is not just the taste�it�s the care. Vendors are hand-picked for their quality, cultural roots, and sustainability practices, ensuring every bite supports the local economy and honors traditional flavors.

�Bi-National Celebration: Puerto Pe�asco as a Cultural Bridge

BTW Festival is proudly hosted in Puerto Pe�asco, Mexico, affectionately known to U.S. travelers as �Arizona�s beach.� Just a short drive from the U.S.�Mexico border, this unique location was chosen to embody the festival�s core mission: unity through culture.

By bringing together artists, attendees, and vendors from both sides of the border, BTW is a tangible expression of cross-cultural collaboration. It�s a place where Spanish and English flow side by side, where Mexican artistry meets American community organizing, and where different perspectives come together on common ground�literally.

Puerto Pe�asco offers breathtaking natural beauty, but it also holds deeper meaning as a site of bi-national cooperation. The team is working closely with local government, community leaders, and land stewards to ensure the festival uplifts the region while honoring its heritage.

�Sustainability First: A Festival That Gives Back

BTW isn�t just about good vibes�it�s about doing good. True to its name, the festival is donating 15% of profits to causes that support bees, trees, and water conservation.

Here�s how that mission comes to life:

  • Environmental donations�to nonprofits focused on pollinator preservation, reforestation, and clean water access
  • Waste-reduction efforts�including composting, recycling, and reusable serviceware on-site
  • Sustainable infrastructure�and low-impact builds that protect the natural landscape of Puerto Pe�asco

From the very first tent stake to the final beat drop, sustainability is baked into every aspect of BTW�s planning. This is a festival that wants to leave the land better than it found it.

�Camping with Intention

Camping is more than just lodging at BTW�it�s part of the experience. The festival grounds include designated car camping and tent camping zones, each designed for comfort, accessibility, and community-building.

Whether you�re rolling deep with your crew or flying solo, the layout encourages connection. Shared chill spaces, hydration stations, and wellness zones make it easy to rest, recharge, and reset between sets.

Attendees are encouraged to pack intentionally, practice Leave No Trace principles, and bring gear that aligns with the festival�s eco-conscious ethos.

�Save the Dates & Join the Swarm

This inaugural gathering marks the birth of something big�something grounded, global, and golden as honey. BTW is where like-minded music lovers, artists, and change-makers come to connect, create, and celebrate culture in real time.
