UPDATED 12/17: At the time of purchase, you will be able to choose between paying in full or taking advantage of our payment plan.  The payment plan is 50% down for your package during the initial purchase, followed by 1 equal payment of the remaining balance on Jan 16. If you purchase after a payment date has passed, you will be required to pay all previous installments at that time.

Please note: if you choose to do the payment plan, there will be a one-time $50 payment plan processing fee added to the first payment for your package.

During the initial purchase, you will only be able to use one credit card. If you opted for the payment plan and need to change your credit card to make the next payment, you may do so by logging into your account HERE. Please note: the card charged for the previous payment for the payment plan will be automatically charged for any proceeding charges unless the billing information is changed via the procedure above. If you leave the same credit card on file throughout the payment plan, that card will be automatically charged for each payment and no action will be needed on your end.

There are no additional ticketing fees on top of the prices you see, and all Sundara packages provide an all-inclusive experience within the concert venue for all three (3) nights.

Finally, please be aware that all Mexico residents/subjects will be subject to a 16% added VAT tax, which will be charged as an incidental to the credit card provided to the resort at check-in. Please note: any non-residents who fail to provide their passports and immigration cards to the resort at check-in, will also incur this charge.

All performances take place on-site at the Barceló Maya Resort. It’ll just be a few minutes walk through the resort and down the beach for all guests!

The Barceló, where the venue is located, is 80 km or approximately an hour by shuttle bus.

CID Presents Guest Services will reach out to all guests for their arrival and departure flight information before the event in order to coordinate shuttle transportation. In order to accurately plan the shuttle schedule, we will implement a deadline by which all guests will need to provide flight information. Any guest who has not provided this information by the deadline may need to utilize airport shuttles on a standby basis. The specific date of this deadline will fall within 2 months of the event and will be provided to all purchasers in the near future.

PLEASE NOTE: we advise all guests to factor in at least 4 hours to get from Cancun International, through Customs, riding the shuttle, and checking-in to the resort!

A reminder: transportation WILL be available for all guests to and from the airport.

As long as all guests have been registered by the original purchaser, each guest may check-in separately and still experience a seamless check-in.

Standard resort check-in times apply across all of our resorts. Resort check-in time is often not guaranteed until 3:00 PM or 4:00 PM. Each of our resorts has assured us that they will do everything in their power to have rooms prepared as early as possible, though it is unlikely that check-in would occur prior to noon. If you arrive before your room is available, the resort will store your luggage and we will be happy to provide you with your resort credentials so that you can enjoy amenities while your room is being prepared.

Please stay tuned for more information!
