UPDATE - December 16th

SMALL NUMBER OF ROOMS AVAILABLE FOR ISLAND EXODUS
Gov't Mule's Island Exodus has been sold out since August, but we've freed up a handful of rooms which are now available. If you were shut out initially or realize now that you can't miss the opportunity to spend 4 days in the sun and 4 nights rocking with Gov't Mule (3 shows), Warren Haynes (1 solo show), Grace Potter (2 sets opening for The Mule and 1 full show), DJ Logic (Late-Nite in The Disco) and Special Guest saxophonist extraordinaire Ron Holloway, ACT NOW and contact Destination Concerts immediately as there were only a couple extra rooms we could release. For more info on The Island Exodus head to www.mule.net/islandexodus.


UPDATE - August 28th

ADDITIONAL ROOMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR THE ISLAND EXODUS
GRACE POTTER & THE NOCTURNALS ADDED

The response to Gov't Mule's First Annual "Island Exodus" has been tremendous. The Grand Lido Negril Resort is completely sold out, but in order to help meet fan demand, we've secured an extremely limited number of additional rooms at an adjacent resort just steps from The Grand Lido. To those already booked, we want to assure you that the intimacy of the event will not change. The "Island Exodus" remains the most unique Gov't Mule experience to date.

In addition, we're extremely happy to announce that Grace Potter & The Nocturnals will be joining us in Jamaica. They will be opening two of the Mule shows and will also be performing their own show late night after the Warren Haynes performance.

Travel Packages will be available beginning this Tuesday September 1st @ 9a EDT. We expect these to go very quickly and once they are gone, there will not be any more released. To reserve call Destination Concerts at 888.788.8202 or 610.813.2644.
