Your Paradise, one of the world’s most iconic music and travel experiences, has announced a star studded lineup for its 2023 edition which includes 25 artists, with nearly half being Australian. Returning to the Mamanuca Islands for its eighth edition from 10 – 16 December, Your Paradise offers attendees a once in a lifetime journey into the natural beauty and cultural wonder of the South Pacific year after year.
During the day, festival-goers set the pace and pick their own adventure which could include snorkeling in the morning, playing a round of golf in the afternoon with Dom Littrich, finding zen at a yoga session with Leah Simmons, or catching some waves with a bit of surfing with Chris Enever.
And when the sun goes down? The entire Your Paradise community comes together under the stars to watch some of the world’s biggest acts perform live on the main stage. Your Paradise producer Ignacio Garcia shares: “The vibrant energy and rich culture of Fiji set the stage for a festival experience like no other. Our dynamic lineup, full of larger-than-life performers, will bring everyone together for five unforgettable nights.
We’re transforming catamarans, private islands, and even the floating barge, Cloud 9, into unique party hubs – creating breathtaking oceanfront and poolside stages. And the best part? All these thrilling events are just a stone’s throw away from the plush resorts our festival-goers will call ‘home’ for the week.”
This year’s lineup is bigger than ever including seven-time Grammy nominee Bonobo, the beloved London act TSHA, UK MC Bru-C, and a DJ set from the illustrious Maribou State. UK rave revivalists Prospa and the high BPM hijinks of Partiboi69 pull the lineup left of center, while Hot Dub Time Machine and Breakbot & Irfane bring forth their feel-good funk and disco antics. Nigerian dance act Kah-Lo will represent the global takeover of the African diaspora on the YP bill, onwards to UK DNB front runners Koven.
The lineup is furthered by scene risers like Anjunadeep’s Qrion, underground tastemaker Monki, Steel City Dance Disc export Loods, the return of Doorly to Your Paradise and many more. Your Paradise will also feature takeovers by UKF, Spectrum, and Disco Donnie Presents.
This immersive programming comes in addition to first-rate activities on the island plus cultural tours allowing guests to experience local Fijian culture. Strengthening its bond with the local community and its natural surroundings, Your Paradise has proudly joined the ranks of the Mamanuca Environment Society of Fiji (MES).
