JOALI BEING will welcome guests for its 2026/27 festive season with Tides of Tradition, a programme centred on wellbeing, togetherness, dining and island experiences. Running from 22 December 2026 to 8 January 2027, the celebration will bring festive traditions together with JOALI BEING’s focus on the Joy of Well Living.

For travelers planning a festive escape in the Maldives, the programme offers a mix of Christmas and New Year celebrations, visiting wellness practitioners, culinary experiences, family activities and adventures across the island and surrounding ocean.
Tides of Tradition at JOALI BEING
The festive programme begins with the Island of Light: Festive Tree Illumination, marking the start of the celebrations beneath the island’s palm trees.
Christmas Eve will feature the Feast of Christmas Wonders, an elegant dinner combining festive favourites with JOALI BEING signatures and carefully sourced ingredients.
Families can also enjoy Season’s Bells: Santa’s Arrival, while the Island Splash Pool Party brings live music, festive bites and poolside entertainment to MOJO Pool.
For New Year’s Eve, A World of Magic will welcome 2027 with sunset cocktails, a gala dinner, live entertainment, a midnight countdown, fireworks and dancing under the stars.
A Festive Season Focused on Wellbeing
Wellbeing remains central to the festive experience at JOALI BEING. Throughout the season, guests can take part in movement, mindfulness, meditation, hydrotherapy rituals and expert-led sessions.
Two visiting practitioners will add specialist experiences to the programme.
Javier de Prado will present Breath of Life, combining breathwork, Craniosacral Therapy, Visceral Manipulation and OsteoTha with mindful movement and meditation.
Dr Igor Roganin will offer Holistic Longevity & Facial Rejuvenation, combining Traditional Chinese Medicine with advanced diagnostics and personalised therapies focused on vitality, long-term wellbeing and facial rejuvenation.
Evenings will bring a livelier rhythm through experiences such as the Island Splash Pool Party, DJ Fit Night and Rhythm at the Gate at the Gate of Zero.
Culinary Experiences Across the Island
Dining is another important part of the festive programme. Guests can explore chef-led culinary journeys, including the five-course Chef’s Table Collection, alongside experiences such as Spirit of the Orient, Italian Essence and Japanese specialities at Yutori.
The programme also includes toes-in-the-sand seafood dinners at MOJO and hands-on masterclasses focused on pasta, sushi and artisan pizza.
These experiences give guests opportunities to discover different cuisines while enjoying the relaxed island setting that defines a Maldives holiday.
Ocean Adventures and Conservation
The festive experience extends beyond the island. Guests can explore the surrounding marine environment through dolphin cruises, guided snorkelling, sunset fishing, coral planting, scuba diving and water sports.
For travelers interested in marine conservation, coral planting and opportunities to meet the Marine Biology team provide a closer look at the island’s environmental initiatives.
Family Experiences at B’Kidult
Families are also an important part of the festive programme. At B’Kidult, younger guests can take part in Christmas crafts, nature treasure hunts, culinary workshops and marine adventures.
Teen-focused activities include fitness and virtual reality experiences, while families can learn more about marine conservation through coral planting, visits to the Sea Turtle Care Centre and experiences with the Marine Biology team.
This combination of recreation, learning and wellbeing creates activities for different age groups throughout the festive period.
