This festive season, Kandima Maldives is turning up the energy and inviting guests to celebrate like never before. From 21 December 2025 to 7 January 2026, the island comes alive with “Rhythms of the Eras-A Festive Journey Through Time”, a vibrant festival that brings music, style, and memories from iconic decades straight to the Maldives.
From the jazzy sophistication of the 1920s to the electric beats of today’s EDM scene, Kandima invites guests to relive the soundtrack of their lives. “This isn’t your typical holiday programme,” says Dermot Birchall, General Manager. “It’s a celebration of music, culture, and joy-blended with the playful, island-style spirit Kandima is known for.”
Food & Festive Feasts
Guests can enjoy themed pop-up dining experiences like Smokin’ Blues & BBQ Grooves or retro spots such as The King’s Diner. Street-food fans can explore the Hip-Hop & Grunge Cart on Breeze Beach, while chocolate and whisky tastings, seaside caviar and prosecco moments, and festive brunches create unforgettable culinary experiences.
Decades-Inspired Wellness
EsKape Spa offers indulgent, music-inspired treatments, from the 70s-themed Flower Power Bliss Ritual to the glamorous Gatsby Glow Journey. Guests can also enjoy hands-on workshops, including candle-making and island soap crafting.
Fun for Everyone
Families can join daily creative sessions at Kandiland, meet Santa on the beach, and attend glow parties, while adults can try cocktail mixology, karaoke nights, and poolside dance-offs.
Parties & Entertainment
Each night features a different musical theme: RnB Nights, Rock ‘n’ Roll Revivals, Latin Fire, and retro Christmas celebrations. Thrill-seekers can race at Fast Track e-go-karts, explore the KULA Art Festival, or relax on a Luxury Sunset Cruise.
New Year’s Eve Celebration
Ring in 2026 with a beachside bash, live music, fireworks over the water, and a late-night buffet. As the first sunrise of the year paints the sky, join a leisurely New Year Brunch and toast to new beginnings.
Experience a holiday full of music, joy, and island magic.
