Inside Maldives' SeaChella: The Ultimate Island Version of Coachella With World-Class DJs Like Marvin Humes

This Easter, the Maldives is set to be the ultimate party destination as InterContinental Maldives Maamunagau Resort launches the first-ever SeaChella The Island Festival.

The festival will feature top-tier DJs, a vibrant beachside atmosphere, and a lineup of world-class entertainment, making it a must-visit for music lovers and luxury travellers alike.

Headlining the Island Vibes: Marvin Humes and DJ Charlesy

Leading the festival’s musical acts are two of the UK’s most celebrated DJs—Marvin Humes and DJ Charlesy. Marvin Humes, best known for his time in the chart-topping boy band JLS, has successfully transitioned into a highly sought-after DJ, bringing his signature house and R&B beats to global audiences. Meanwhile, DJ Charlesy, renowned for his work with Capital Xtra and as Tinie Tempah’s official tour DJ, is set to bring an electrifying energy to the festival.

Adding to the excitement, festivalgoers will be treated to a special afternoon set by DJ Charlesy JNR, promising a dynamic performance tailored for families and younger audiences. As the sun sets over the breathtaking Maamunagau Island, Marvin Humes will take centre stage, spinning tracks that will transform the beach into an unforgettable dancefloor under the stars.

A Festival of Luxury and Entertainment

Beyond the music, SeaChella The Island Festival offers an array of indulgent experiences. Festival-style food and drink stalls will line the beach, including an exclusive Oyster Bar and Champagne Stall, while fire shows, aerial performances, and pool parties keep the energy high. The grand finale will be a lavish Gala Beach Dinner Party, featuring an extravagant seafood buffet, hand-crafted cocktails, and a Neon White Light Party—setting the stage for a night of pure celebration.
