EID CELEBRATIONS AT SIYAM WORLD

Siyam World, Maldives is gearing up for a magical Eid al-Adha next month with a mouth-watering, mind-bending program of festivities, featuring culinary showcases by distinguished chef Grégoire Berger; mesmerizing performances by reigning European Champion mental magician, LUCCA; and an exploration of the Maldives’ rich history and culture via folklore storytelling and traditional dance shows.

Taking place from 8-12 July 2022, Siyam World’s Eid al-Adha celebrations welcome families and groups of friends to enjoy a daily programme of acts and dances by local performers, as well as a spectacular Eid Colour Run around the 54-hectare natural island resort. Carrying on the Maldives’ tradition of storytelling, guests can join under the stars for stories of magic and wonder around the bonfire with Bodu Mas – traditional folktales passed down through the generations.

Adding a dose of magic to Siyam World’s Eid al-Adha celebrations will be renowned illusionist and champion of mental magic, LUCCA. The multi-awarded artist from Vienna will stage a series of captivating performances, enthralling guests with magical acts and illusions of the mind.

Tantalizing taste-buds at the resort’s beachfront dining venue, The Cube, will be acclaimed celebrity chef Grégoire Berger. One of the most-awarded chefs in Dubai and Chef de Cuisine of Atlantis, The Palm’s fine-dining restaurant, Ossiano, Berger brings his visionary approach and passion for seasonality, terroir and sea foraging to Siyam World with a curated tasting menu. Following in the footsteps of culinary luminaries including two-Michelin-star chefs Claude Bosi and Sebastian Frank, Berger will host intimate live cooking experiences at The Cube as part of the resort’s ongoing Chef’s Table residency concept.
