Canareef Resort Maldives Unveils Magical Festive Season Programme 2025

Canareef Resort Maldives is set to transform the holiday season into an unforgettable tropical Christmas and New Year experience with its comprehensive Festive Programme 2025, offering guests a unique blend of traditional holiday celebrations and pristine Maldivian paradise.
Running from the end of November until early January, the resort's festive calendar promises a series of enchanting events designed to bring families and friends together in one of the world's most spectacular settings.
Festivities Begin with Traditional Cake Mixing
The holiday celebrations kick off on November 26th with the much-loved Christmas Cake Mixing Ceremony at Meera Bar. This experience for all in-house guests offers the perfect opportunity to celebrate the season together alongside bartenders and fellow travelers.
Guests can participate in the time-honored tradition of mixing dried fruits, nuts, and aromatic spices that will later transform into the resort's signature Christmas cake. This hands-on experience, accompanied by DJ music, creates a festive atmosphere while bringing together guests from around the world in the spirit of the season.

Christmas Tree Lighting Magic
The Christmas celebrations continue on December 17th with the enchanting Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony at Dhoni Bar Beach. Guests will gather under the starlit Maldivian sky to witness the magical moment when holiday lights illuminate the tropical evening, accompanied by cheerful melodies and warm holiday atmosphere.
Family-Friendly Festive Fun
Recognizing the importance of creating magical moments for younger guests, Canareef has dedicated December 18th to "Festive Fun for Kids" at the Kids Club. Children can immerse themselves in holiday creativity through Christmas tree decorating, card making, gingerbread cookie decorating, and festive face painting – ensuring the youngest family members are fully engaged in the celebration.
