Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Dave Matthews and his band’s lead guitarist, Tim Reynolds, will return to Mexico next winter for the 10th anniversary edition of their Dave & Tim Riviera Maya concert vacation, it was announced this week.

Matthews is the frontman of the Dave Matthews Band — one of the most successful touring rock bands of the past three decades — and Reynolds is a guitar virtuoso who also plays acoustically with Matthews.

The duo will headline three such unplugged shows from a beachfront stage during the four-night event scheduled for Jan. 20-23, 2027, at Moon Palace Cancún, a luxury resort on the Riviera Maya.

The “10 Years on the Beach” shows will offer “a mix of classic hits, fan-favorite rarities and unexpected covers in a relaxed, stripped-down setting,” according to an announcement on the Dave Matthews Band website.

The lineup also will include two sets from jam favorites Goose on opening night, along with performances by Sierra Ferrell and Stephen Wilson Jr., and possibly more artists to be announced.

The 2027 shows “reflect the incredible community Dave and Tim have fostered around this event, bringing fans closer to the music they love in a setting that feels both intimate and deeply connected,” said Dan Berkowitz, CEO of producer 100x Hospitality, a company that specializes in destination concerts.

The concert getaway has evolved into a winter pilgrimage for fans, who over the years have been able to hear deep-catalog sets and special tributes.

At this year’s edition three months ago, Matthews and Reynolds joined members of bluegrass band Trampled by Turtles to honor Bob Weir, the Grateful Dead co-founder, rhythm guitarist and vocalist who died Jan. 10 at age 78.

The concerts included Grateful Dead classics such as “Friend of the Devil” (played by an iteration of the Dave Matthews Band for the first time since 2015) and “Casey Jones,” an outright debut.

That show opened with a cover of Jimmy Buffett’s “A Pirate Looks at Forty,” performed by the duo for the first time since 2017, and also featured a cover of Neil Young’s “Ohio.” Both songs highlighted a 26‑song acoustic set that leaned on deeper catalog choices. 

All-inclusive packages for next year will go on sale beginning April 29. For details, visit the website.
