Boutique island electronic music festival with artists and activities across the Mamanucas.
Your Paradise returns to Fiji on October 23–28, 2025, for five nights and six days of intimate, island‑based electronic music across the Mamanuca Islands, with packages that include accommodation, ground and sea transfers, daily breakfast, and access to all billed artists in a capped event that hosts up to roughly 600 guests, artists, and staff on a private resort charter. The 2025 edition marks the ninth annual Your Paradise and debuts a new home base on Mana Island, while continuing the formula of main‑stage pool and beach sets plus limited‑capacity add‑on parties at iconic offshore venues, all set against Fiji’s reefs and lagoon sunsets.
Dates, place, and what’s included
- Dates: Thursday to Tuesday, October 23–28, 2025, in the Mamanuca Islands, Fiji.
- Base: Mana Island Resort & Spa serves as the chartered home base for 2025, with guests ferried from Port Denarau and back according to pre‑assigned sailing slots.
- Packages: Five‑night stays with accommodation, island transfers, daily breakfast, and access to all billed artists; add‑on experiences and boat parties are sold separately in August 2025 and beyond until sold out.
- Capacity: Up to 600 attendees including artists and crew, keeping the experience intentionally small and social so guests and artists share the island together.
Tickets and payments
- Availability: Fewer than 100 packages remained as of late May 2025 per the event homepage, with solo, couple, and group packages offered and a per‑person deposit model securing space.
- Payment: A USD/AUD deposit holds the booking; attendees can pay in full or via instalments, with name‑change cutoffs, refund restrictions, and travel‑insurance requirements detailed in the 2025 terms.
- Transfers: The main ferries depart Port Denarau from 9:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. on October 23 and return from the island between 10:45 a.m. and 4:40 p.m. on October 28; limited transfers outside these windows are available on request.
Music programming and 2025 lineup signals
Your Paradise curates a cross‑section of electronic artists that foregrounds house, melodic and progressive sounds, bass‑leaning club sets, and leftfield electronica in intimate settings where attendees and performers mingle freely. Official channels began teasing 2025 talent in August, with social posts confirming the first artist wave that includes CASSÖ and Nimino, and subsequent announcements previewing “our biggest lineup ever” for late October on Mana Island. Media coverage confirms the date shift and venue update, noting that after a short break the festival returns to Fiji with the same boutique ethos at a breathtaking new home base.
Add‑on experiences
Beyond main‑island programming, Your Paradise is known for “extras” that become core memories: floating‑platform day parties, private‑island sunsets, sailing takeovers, dawn wellness cruises, and snorkeling excursions turned listening sessions. The festival’s June update framed 2025 add‑ons as elevated, limited‑capacity experiences released ahead of the event, with priority to confirmed package holders. Past years have featured Cloud 9 and Malamala Beach Club among others for off‑island add‑ons; while 2025 partner venues publish their own operations independently, official add‑on access is handled directly by Your Paradise and sold only through the event’s booking system once announced.
A day in paradise
- Morning: Breakfast, a beach swim, and optional wellness or water activity before early afternoon sets kick off.
- Afternoon: Poolside headline‑caliber sets on the main stage roll into a golden‑hour showcase on the beach.
- Night: After‑dark programming under the palms, followed by optional add‑ons or ambient socials that keep the vibe warm and unhurried.
- The curated itinerary promised for 2025 blends downtime and discovery with “welcome party” mixers, cultural interludes, beach games, and guided tours that connect guests to Fijian flavors and traditions between sets.
Culture and community
Your Paradise positions itself as “more than a festival,” leaning into small‑community magic and artist proximity: no photo pits, few barriers, and a chartered island that makes for spontaneous collaborations and sunrise conversations at the beach bar. Reviews framed it as “an Eden on a human scale” that erases the audience‑artist divide, inviting guests to live the music in a place where the Pacific and the sounds feel inseparable. That intimacy is central to why the event caps attendance and wraps so much of the logistics into packages instead of day tickets.
Practical planning
- Age and entry: Your Paradise is 18+ and fully licensed; outside alcohol is prohibited and subject to police‑assisted bag checks when boarding ferries and on arrival per on‑island RSA and safety rules.
- Name changes and cutoffs: Name changes are permitted up to September 30, 2025, with a fee up to AUD $150; final guest names must be confirmed by August 30, 2025, to avoid cancellation risk per terms.
- Visas and entry: Some passports require a visa to enter Fiji; the festival site links to Fiji government visa‑exempt lists and entry requirements and recommends comprehensive travel insurance for all attendees.
- Packing: Lightweight tropical attire, swimwear, reef‑safe sunscreen, a light rain layer, and cash/card for on‑island purchases not included in packages; all transfers between Port Denarau and Mana Island are consolidated by the festival.
Why 2025 stands out
- New island base: Mana Island becomes the main stage for Your Paradise in 2025, offering new swim spots, beaches, and reef access while preserving the event’s trademark intimacy and off‑island add‑on style.
- Biggest lineup signals: With social channels touting the “biggest lineup ever” and first artist announcements rolling in mid‑August, the 2025 music program is positioned to rival the festival’s standout years while keeping the capped‑capacity experience intact.
- Nearly sold out: The main site signaled fewer than 100 packages remaining by late May, underscoring demand for the five‑night charter format and the balance of music, travel, and community Your Paradise is known for.
Travel and pairing ideas
- Before and after: Build in a night at Denarau pre‑ferry and another after the return for spa time and a gentle re‑entry; the festival’s fixed ferry windows make same‑day international connections risky.
- Island hops: Add a Mamanuca day cruise, a Malamala Beach Club daybed, or a Coral Coast stay after the event if schedules allow; Fiji’s wet and dry seasons make October a sweet spot for warm, drier days.
- Surf and snorkel: Book a guided snorkel or surf lesson on Mana or via festival partners; the reef lagoons around the Mamanucas are beginner‑friendly with clear water and gentle protection on calm days.

If a capped island charter, sunrise swims, and nights of electronic music under Fijian stars speak to the soul, secure a package while they remain, watch for add‑on drops, and choose a ferry slot early. Then arrive open to connection and ready for five nights where the line between artist and audience disappears, and paradise takes its time to unfold on the sands of Mana Island.
