Oaga Art Resort, Maldives, has announced the upcoming Kula Kula Festival, taking place from April 10th to 15th, 2024.

“Kula” translates to “colour” in Dhivehi, the Maldivian language. Kula Kula, with its playful repetition, signifies an abundance of colours. This vibrant celebration promises an immersive experience into Maldivian culture, pulsating with music, dance, visual arts, and a taste of the archipelago’s unique traditions. Building on the foundation of last year’s success, the 2024 Kula Kula Festival promises an even richer experience.

Un viaggio attraverso le feste

Il festival inizia con la gioiosa celebrazione dell'Eid Al-Fitr il 10 aprile. Assapora i sapori frizzanti di una cena barbecue maldiviana intrisa di influenze internazionali, creando una deliziosa esperienza culinaria in comune. Migliora la tua celebrazione dell'Eid con una visita alla nostra stazione Hedhikaa dal vivo, che offre deliziosi pasti brevi e prelibatezze maldiviane per arricchire la tua tavolozza.

Sperimenta i suoni toccanti dei tamburi locali Boduberu, una parata Maali combinata con una piccola narrazione di Koadi, insieme a danze flash durante il giorno, offrendo un viaggio accattivante attraverso il villaggio maldiviano. La band locale Sky Rock è pronta ad animare il palco durante l'ora del tramonto con ospiti a sorpresa che renderanno lo spettacolo ancora più speciale.
