Brandi Carlile’s Girls Just Wanna Weekend returns to Mexico’s Riviera Maya for its seventh year, transforming the Barceló Maya Resort into “Brandi Land” from January 15th-19th, 2026. The all-inclusive destination festival celebrates female and non-binary artists with headlining sets from the likes of The Chicks (performing their first full set since 2023!), Sam Smith, and of course Carlile herself. It’s four nights of music, poolside performances, artist-curated activities, and late-night celebrations under the Caribbean stars.

What Is Girls Just Wanna Weekend?
Think of Girls Just Wanna Weekend as a music festival, a community gathering, and a luxurious resort vacation all wrapped into one event. The entire Barceló Maya Resort transforms into “Brandi Land” for the long weekend, hosting main stage concerts each night as well as afternoon poolside sets, songwriting workshops, and artist-led activities throughout the day. The whole thing wraps with the Hot Tub Time Machine closing party, a late-night blowout at the beach pool that’s become a festival tradition.
Previous years have produced the kind of moments that only happen in this setting — impromptu collaborations, late night dance parties, and intimate conversations with artists you’d never get at a standard arena show. It’s a party with a powerful message, celebrating community, positivity, and inclusion.
