The Fari Islands Festival returns from 13 to 15 August 2026 for its second edition, staged across Patina Maldives and The Ritz-Carlton Maldives in the Fari Islands. Academy Award-nominated actress and humanitarian Rosamund Pike headlines the three-day programme, which spans music, wellness, gastronomy, art and marine conservation.
Pike, a returning guest involved in shaping this year's edition, will host a charity dinner in her role as ambassador for the Mines Advisory Group, deliver a solo address on creative expression, lead a guided meditation, and teach a Maldivian cooking class at Patina's Kandu restaurant.
The wider line-up includes designer Sean Wotherspoon, musician Sebastien Tellier closing the festival with a piano set, Michelin-starred chef Samuel Lee, Tokyo dining collective WAGYUMAFIA and Dry Wave Cocktail Studio, with Wellness by Bamford returning as wellness partner and new spa treatments introduced at both resorts.
