DC MEXICO, The 2nd-Largest DC Event of the Year
The beach, sun, pools, and 5-star resort are back. From business deep dives over breakfast to evening parties on rooftops, DC Mexico is full of entrepreneurs who are passionate about building businesses and living a full, fun life.
This is our second major event in Playa Del Carmen, where we’ve planted the seeds of something great. Our Community Manager, Alex, describes this event as “The cheat code to maximize your business connections.”
Get ready for a mix of fun and business, and a chance to maximize your face time with other remote founders from around the world, running successful and unique businesses from their laptops.
A few things we’re looking forward to:
Excellent weather and almost constant sunshine in a top city for remote founders and digital nomads
Business insights from founders in the trenches, experimenting with new strategies and techniques, and sharing the receipts on how they’re working
Inspiring keynote presentations and actionable workshops to help you unlock new opportunities and solve specific challenges in your business
Member-led meet ups before, during, and after the event (think: morning breathwork and meditation, taco tours, and day excursions to fascinating spots in Mexico)
Family-friendly fun, with party passes for your significant other and planned entertainment for kids
A 5-star resort on the beach as our venue: The Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen
Hundreds of restaurants and amenities within walking distance from the hotel

The Schedule
(Details subject to change.)
Day 1: Wednesday, May 7th - Mastermind Day and Opening Party
Included in the 3-Day Ticket is the mastermind day. You’ll be hand-matched into a group of similar founders and discuss your businesses for the day. Each member will get a chance to bring a “Hot Seat” topic (usually a challenge or opportunity) and receive feedback from the rest of the group.
80% of attendees participate in the Mastermind Day.
In the evening, we'll meet old friends and make new ones at our opening gathering. We’ll have food, drink, and a mixer activity to help introverts and extroverts easily connect with more people.
Day 2: Thursday, May 8 - Presentations, Workshops, and Facilitated Conversations and Evening Party
This year, you can look forward to more tactical presentations, learnings, and facilitated conversations. The goal is to create more meaningful connections and to give you more “A-ha” moments through the event.
We’ll have another evening party tonight with more great food and drink.
Day 3: Friday, May 9 - Presentations, Workshops, and Facilitated Conversations and Closing Party
The momentum from Thursday will carry us into Friday. We’ll continue learning from each other, collaborating, and digging deeper with our conversations.
We'll have our closing party, and we will send everyone off with a bang. Last year’s party was on the beach, and there was a pop-up fire show!

Is the Hyatt family-friendly?
Yes! This hotel offers childcare, pools, and beach access and has great walkability for you to explore with your family. There are many excursions that leave from Playa Del Carmen, perfect for when you are busy with DCers, your family can easily get around and venture out by themselves.
The hotel offers complimentary child care for children under the age of 12 during the day. You can contact them directly about additional childcare options for the evenings.
What happens after the event?
A large percentage of attendees will stick around the area to continue hanging out or enjoy time with their family. Extend your stay at the Hyatt, book an Airbnb with a pool, or explore the many other boutique hotel properties in Playa.
Is the ticket refundable?
You can receive a refund minus the service fee up until 60 days prior to the event. No refunds, tickets, or transfers for any reason will be honored after this date as we're investing heavily back into making the experience as memorable as possible.
What should I wear?
During the day, “DC casual” is a-okay. We’re fine with t-shirts and flip-flops. Most attendees choose to dress up a little more during the eventing parties and adhere to the “Smart Casual” look.
Is there an event app or a WhatsApp group?
Yes, we have a dedicated WhatsApp group for the event, as well as a WhatsApp group for families to organize outings and playdates with the kids. Our event app, Whova, will launch a few weeks before the event and all attendees will be notified.
How do I book my hotel room?
We’ve negotiated special rates at the Hyatt. Once you’ve registered by securing your ticket, we’ll send you the link to book your room. The hotel has assured us this is the lowest price you will find! In order to get the low price, you must book through our exclusive link.
Can I sponsor DC MEXICO?
Email or message Alex Harling if you’re interested in becoming a sponsor, alex@dynamitecircle.com
When should I arrive and how late should I stay after the event?
Arrive one or two days before the event starts if you can! You’ll have a chance to get settled and go to a few meet-ups before the event starts. Because of the affordability of accommodation in PDC, we expect many DCers to stick around after the event to hang out in the area.
Arriving two days early and staying one or two more days after turns the event into a full week, increasing the value you’ll receive. We’re obsessed with making DC Mexico a week-long adventure, and we’ve ensured the hotel has rooms for our attendees before and after the event.
If you choose to fly in and out, not a problem; plenty of members choose to do the same and still get plenty of value from the event.
Where will attendees communicate and organize meet-ups?
In the weeks leading up to the event, there’ll be an event app, Whova, and WhatsApp group used by all the attendees (you’ll receive plenty of reminders to join). This is where attendees will start connecting and organizing ‘meet-ups’.
Member-led meet-ups are varied. Many meet-ups are planned just a few days before they happen. The meet-ups include discussions on business topics and group activities.
