Summer is music festival season, which means fun in the sun, good music, and festive summer drinks in hand, and nobody knows how to make a fun summer cocktail like BACARDÍ Rum.

BACARDÍ BAY is popping up at music festivals all over the country, giving concert-goers an experience like no other with its Latin-Caribbean oasis right in the middle of the action.

BACARDÍ BAY is the place to be. Decked out with tropical prints, games, Rum bars, and photo ops galore, BACARDÍ BAY is the perfect place to gather with friends, take in the festival and sip on an amazing rum cocktail. Whether guests want to hang out, dance or experience the #SoundofRum, the BAY is bringing music lovers together and encourages them to “Do What Moves You.”

The festival pop ups incorporate the brand’s Do What Moves You elements into the programming. These campaigns integrate music and dance (this summer’s Pass The Beat campaign features a new track, Make it Hot, from Major Lazer and Brazilian singer Anitta) and drive a strong connection between all of the festivals and the programming happening throughout the summer.
