La Zebra Live Music Series
CJ Garton x La Zebra: A Beachfront Country Music Weekend in Tulum
From August 20-24, 2026, La Zebra turns a Tulum beach stay into a guest-only music weekend with CJ Garton, pairing Nashville storytelling with Mexican coastal dining, mezcal, rooftop gatherings and live music under the Caribbean sky.
A guest-only beachfront takeover
Nashville storytelling meets Tulum soul at La Zebra.
La Zebra Hotel has announced CJ Garton x La Zebra, a four-night music weekend on the sands of Tulum with country artist, songwriter, rancher and military veteran CJ Garton.
Designed as more than a standard concert, the weekend moves between beachfront dinners, rooftop gatherings, personal moments with Garton, cocktails, games, dedicated beach beds, live music under the stars and the warm Mexican hospitality that defines La Zebra.
About the artist
Who is CJ Garton?
CJ Garton is a country music artist and songwriter known for Nashville-rooted storytelling, a commanding baritone voice and a direct connection with audiences. Raised as a sixth-generation rancher on a cattle farm established during the Oklahoma Land Run of the 1800s, Garton brings a lived-in authenticity to country and Red Dirt music.
His background also includes military service and Cherokee heritage, and the La Zebra weekend is built around that story-first sensibility: music that feels personal, grounded and made for an intimate setting by the sea.
The experience
More than a concert. A weekend with CJ.
The live music series is designed for travelers who want a story-driven music weekend rather than a single show. Guests can turn a La Zebra stay into a full beachfront event with food, music, culture, games and easy time by the Caribbean Sea.

The place
Why La Zebra is the right stage for a Tulum music weekend
La Zebra is where Tulum feels easy: beachfront rooms, warm hospitality, Mexican flavor, beach beds, cocktails, family energy and relaxed luxury. For the CJ Garton weekend, those everyday strengths become part of the event experience.
Guests can wake up by the sea, move into breakfast and beach time, gather for music and meals, and end the night without needing to turn every moment into a separate logistics plan.

Optional add-ons
Make the trip bigger than the music.
The event can also become a fuller Tulum getaway. Guests can layer in spa time, wellness, cenotes, coastal dining, tours and other La Zebra experiences around the scheduled CJ Garton weekend.
That is the advantage of hosting the live music series at a beachfront hotel rather than a stand-alone venue: the room, the restaurant, the beach and the destination all become part of the story.
