Set within the pristine surroundings of Raa Atoll, InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort introduces the return of Seachella 2.0 – The Island Festival, a vibrant Easter celebration blending music, gastronomy, wellness, and family experiences into one immersive island escape.
Following the success of its inaugural edition, the festival returns on 4 April 2026, promising an elevated programme of curated moments designed for both families and couples seeking something beyond the traditional Maldivian holiday.
An Island Festival with Global Energy
At the heart of Seachella 2.0 is its headline performance by internationally recognised artist Ashley Roberts, known for her role in The Pussycat Dolls.
Bringing her signature energy to the island, she will headline both an afternoon DJ set and the grand Gala Beach Dinner Party, transforming the shoreline into a lively yet refined celebration under the stars.
Throughout the day, guests can explore a festival-style atmosphere featuring live DJ sets, interactive experiences, and a dynamic social setting rarely seen in the Maldives.
A Celebration Designed for All Ages
Seachella extends beyond a single evening, unfolding across a full Easter weekend programme tailored to every generation.
Younger guests are invited into the world of Planet Trekkers, where activities range from treasure hunts and creative workshops to beach movie nights and Easter-themed crafts. Teen travellers can engage in culinary classes, water sports, and social experiences designed to balance fun and discovery.
Meanwhile, adults can retreat into moments of stillness at the AVI Spa, with treatments such as Shirodhara and immersive sound healing sessions offering a counterpoint to the festival’s vibrant energy.
Culinary Experiences with a Festive Twist
Food plays a central role in the Seachella experience. A lively Street Food Village brings together elevated comfort flavours — from oysters and surf & turf sliders to sweet treats like popcorn and candy floss — complemented by a Champagne trolley and curated cocktail creations.
In the lead-up to the festival, the resort introduces the “Egg-cellent Chef’s Table”, a refined multi-course tasting concept that reimagines the Easter egg through creative culinary techniques.
The celebration culminates in a beachside gala dinner, where live music, ocean views, and curated menus come together in a signature Easter moment.
An Elevated Island Escape
Beyond the festivities, InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort offers a seamless blend of privacy and experience.
From overwater villas with private pools to family-friendly residences, the resort is designed to accommodate both intimate escapes and multi-generational travel.
With opportunities for snorkelling, dolphin watching, island hopping, and relaxed cycling across the island, Seachella becomes more than an event — it evolves into a complete destination experience.
