Avani+ Fares Maldives to host Your Paradise music festival debut in May 2026
Avani+ Fares Maldives will host Your Paradise Maldives from 11 to 16 May 2026, marking the boutique, destination-led festival’s first edition in the Maldives. The event will also be the resort’s first music festival, bringing together electronic music, island living, and curated travel experiences.
Designed to reflect the island’s natural pace, the festival will take place across open-air stages and shared social spaces. Programming will move from daytime lagoon-side sets to beach gatherings and evening sessions, creating a continuous transition from day to night.
Your Paradise, previously held in Fiji and now with an international following, will feature a limited-capacity format with dedicated travel packages. The phase one line-up includes Ayybo, Arielle Free, Coco & Breezy, Double Touch, Jordan Brando & William Kiss, Low Steppa, Melé, Niiko x Swae, Sarah Story, Sasha Spielberg, Tom & Collins, and Tori Levett, with additional artists to be announced.
Located on Fares Island on the western edge of the Baa Atoll UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Avani+ Fares Maldives offers a range of accommodation options, including Beach Pool Villas, Overwater Villas, and two- and four-bedroom pavilions suited for groups. The resort also features larger overwater residences with private pools and outdoor dining areas. Guests can also take part in the resort’s Ambaa Adventure, which includes a dhoni cruise across the lagoon serving cocktails and mocktails.
Outside the music programme, guests can participate in watersports, diving, and snorkelling on the house reef, as well as wellness activities such as yoga and meditation at AvaniFit and treatments at AvaniSpa. The resort also provides access to nearby marine sites, including Hanifaru Bay.
Avani+ Fares Maldives opened in 2023 and has since received industry recognition through regional hospitality awards.
Packages for Your Paradise Maldives start from USD 2,599 per person and include five nights’ accommodation on a half-board basis, access to main stage performances and curated events, and group wellness sessions. Packages are available for solo travellers, couples, and groups.
