WHO WE ARE
The most exclusive and intimate music event you will ever experience!
Perfect Travel Group, home of Perfect Wave Surf Experience, S-Resorts and A Perfect Foundation, among others, is the world’s largest surf & lifestyle group.
Sensing the time was right, in 2011 we made a conscious decision to channel resources into creating really cool, totally unique, exclusive experiences.
Perfect Wave’s Global Marketing Manager Ben Horvath and CEO Jamie Gray devised a completely original and unique offering – Music In Paradise.
Music in Paradise fuses a love of the ocean, and music, in one unique offering.
Days are spent playing in tropical crystal clear waters at the best resorts in Australia, Fiji, Maldives or Indonesia, and as the sun sets, music legends perform live with the crashing waves as percussion.
Hang out with your favourite music artist while holidaying in paradise. It doesn’t get any better than this.

MAGIC in paradise
This would have to be the best way to see your favourite artists. My friend and I kept calling it magic in paradise. So well organised, staff are amazing. Everyone was relaxed including the artists – it was great to see them in that setting. Everyone put on an absolutely brilliant show. If you haven’t done it, please do 😁This was our first and now we would like to do them all. Thank you so much, music in paradise!! 💕
Pure magic, unforgettable memories, and an experience I couldn’t recommend more
Take me back to paradise already – heading to Delta Goodrem’s Music in Paradise for the second time was just as magical, unforgettable, and soul-filling as ever. ✨🌴💜
From the music, fun, laughter, and beautiful connections to the incredible memories made, this experience is truly something special.
Both times have been exceptionally well run, and the Music in Paradise team are absolute legends – they genuinely care, and every detail runs like clockwork.
I couldn’t recommend it more highly. If you’re thinking about it, do it – pure magic in paradise.
A week I will carry with me forever
My experience this week could honestly not be captured in just a single review, because it was genuinely so much more than a holiday. The way that Music in Paradise organised this event created a beautiful and unique environment where connection felt so easy and natural, as I met so many incredible people across all ages. Beyond the shared social experiences, the musical side was something I will treasure endlessly. Being blessed with the opportunity to see Delta in such an intimate and personal setting felt incredibly surreal, a lifetime dream come true. My aspirations were fulfilled through many personal moments during the week that made me feel incredibly seen and I will never forget them. I met my idol in a movie-like setting, where everything felt like it slowed down, with years of admiration, emotion and meaning all catching up at once, as you can tell by my face in the photo 🥲. Everything was so thoughtfully organised, where the team was super flexible and accomodating, and I could tell how much heart was put into making this experience what it is. This week gave me unforgettable and deeply valuable memories that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. Not many people can say they have partied on a paradise island for a week, surrounded by such a kind and harmonious community, celebrating someone who has meant so much to them.
DG IN FIJI ROUND 2!!!
Because the first one was so incredible we all had to go back for the second one. Very grateful to music in paradise and Delta Goodrem and her team for reuniting everyone on another fun family annual holiday. It truly is the most amazing week filled with music celebrating Delta and spending time with friends that quickly become family.
Thank you MIP
Can’t wait to see what’s next.
What a week!!!!!!
MIP weeks are the best weeks of the year. I have done every Delta event they have done for the past four years – two in the Maldives and now two in Fiji. Each year has been incredible. You meet new people and catch up with people you have seen before. Have amazing chats with Delta, Matt, the band, and their team. The shows are incredible and really intimate. The resorts MIP takes us to are incredible. The staff are so welcoming. The MIP team (Shout out to Lara and Soozz) are INCREDIBLE!!!!! They look out for you every step of the way. From booking, to any questions you have over the months leading up to the event, to during the actual event itself. They are such an incredible team and honestly make these trips so fun and easy to plan and attend. I would totally recommend going on an MIP event.
Mind blown for the third year in a row!
I have attended three MIP events and they have exceeded all my expectations. I am ready to book my fourth!
The beach locations have been magic, the events are well organised, the staff are beyond helpful and the added bonus is it’s a wonderful opportunity to meet people as everyone has been so warm and friendly.
Nothing is too much trouble for the MIP crew. They are brilliant communicators and are always available to assist if required.
If you are thinking about attending a MIP event, do yourself a favour, don’t hesitate!
Fun in the sun
Ok, just finished up my 3rd MIP event in Fiji with my wife. Another amazing week in the sun at an incredibly well run & great value for money event.
Was able to sneak away each day for a surf & then join in the evening festivities.
Will be back again next year.
Big thanks to Soozz & Lara .. vinaka
Mesmerising
What an incredible experience. Delta was beyond words fabulous. Intercontinental was spectacular. The Music in Paradise team was exceptional. Could not have been any better.
Truly a week in Paradise
Truly the best experience ever! Thanks to the team for creating these amazing events for us to connect with others and enjoy our favourite musicians as a family in paradise! I hope I get to do it all again soon!
Magic from start to finish
Having avoided overseas travel for years due to a fear of flying, it was going to take something truly special to get me back in the air. This trip was exactly that! Every night was magical, filled with incredible performances, wonderful people, and impeccable service from the Music in Paradise team. My bags are already packed for the next one!
Unforgettable! Amazing!
Birds of Tokyo in Fiji. What a truly awesome experience. The resort was out of this world. And the staff – wow! Every single one was so friendly. And then the 3 sunset concerts on the beach. Made their songs even more special with that backdrop. What can I say except bring on the next one because once you’ve done one, you won’t stop.
Absolute paradise with the best music
Bula. My husband and I just attended Music in Paradise Fiji with Birds of Tokyo – all we can say is ‘wow – that was amazing’. From the time of booking until our return home has been made easy by Soozz, Lara and team. Birds of Tokyo were beyond awesome – 3 fantastic intimate concerts as well as being seen throughout the resort, they really made our experience everything we hoped for and more. The resort itself and the staff also exceeded expectations- they really made us feel like family. We would definitely do it again. Vinaka xx
What an amazing holiday and experience. BOT in fiji
I’ve been fortunate enough to enjoy many beautiful moments with my family, but this one will stand out for years to come. My wife surprised me when she said hey I’ve booked the next holiday we are going to Fiji with – Music in Paradise” concerts by Birds of Tokyo. It was our first holiday in many years I’m so happy that my wife decided to book it.
From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was electric. The venue, set in the heart of paradise, it was the perfect backdrop for Birds of Tokyo’s stellar performance. We always love seeming them play but this was next level and so intimate and seeing them play with the natural beauty around us was unforgettable. I couldn’t help but feel so grateful for this moment—surrounded by family, in such a magical setting, with music that resonated on a whole new level. Our twins 9 year olds could relax on a bean bag and watch the concert from less than 20m from the band.
But what made it even more special was that this moment marked the start of a new chapter for our family. Our first holiday together in a long time. My wife’s thoughtfulness and attention to detail in organizing such a beautiful and memorable experience didn’t go unnoticed. The concert was a perfect reminder of why making memories together as a family is so important.
The whole experience felt like a dream – the perfect mix of incredible music, stunning surroundings, and cherished family moments. If you ever get the chance to see Birds of Tokyo live, especially in such a unique setting, do it! You won’t regret it.
So amazing!
We are still pinching ourselves to think we made this trip, “a destination concert”, which was very intimate and special. The MIP and Resort team looked after us as music loving people with a few special needs, exceeding expectations. We have already put down a deposit for another MIP experience in 2026!
So good we are going back
My dream come true. Sleeping in a villa over the water, Swimming in the worlds biggest aquarium, And oh so warm.
Our island was small quiet and stunning. Concerts were out of this world. Missy and friends and family were lovely. Only regret: Not long enough.
Soooo – We have to go back.
Once in a lifetime experience
Amazing experience.
Majestic resort. Fantastic staff.
What an opportunity to meet lifelong friends and superstar Delta.
Would love to do it again!
A dream holiday! One for the books🤍
I’ve had the incredible opportunity to attend two amazing Delta Goodrem events with the Music in Paradise group, and I can honestly say that they exceeded all my expectations! The staff were beyond friendly and welcoming, always going the extra mile for everyone, no matter how big or small the request. The atmosphere of being so intimate and surrounded by fellow fans was simply magical. Delta truly knows how to connect with her audience, and I couldn’t have imagined a better holiday experience! I’m so grateful for these unforgettable moments!
Stranded in the Snowy’s 2024
I can’t ever imagine going back to “regular” concerts after a MIP event. I keep expecting the MIP experience, the extras, the fun, the people , the music, and the lifelong friendships made. 😊
Amazing artists performing in beautiful settings surrounded by beautiful people. The team at MIP are a truly caring and friendly bunch.
The MIP experience is truly life-changing.
Great music, great location and wonderful holiday
Birds of Tokyo in the Maldives was a wonderful experience. Fantastic resort, superb location and the guys from BOT were the best. So great to “hang out” with them.
Looking forward to our 2nd MIP event travelling to Fiji in 2026 to see the Birds again!!
Unforgettable! Music, people, lifestyle, location.
We’ve been fans for years but this was the best experience we’ve ever had. The location the Fijian people, the resort, AND the fantastic music. Josh, Sam and the team were so humble, talented and easy to be around. Music in Paradise did a brilliant job of organising this event. Great communication, excellent planning and the freedom to relax and enjoy – so easy. We’ll be back!
In June 2014, Perfect Travel Group launched the inaugural Music In Paradise series featuring Donavon Frankenreiter at Kandooma Resort, Maldives.
In June 2015 Pete Murray and Matt Smith performed. That September, Tex Perkins and Murray Patterson played 4 incredible gigs in 7 days, also at Kandooma.
Since then, Music in Paradise expanded to Bali, Fiji and Australia. Ocean Alley and Phil Jamieson at S-Resorts Hidden Valley, Jimmy Barnes at Kandooma as well as Daydream Island in the Whitsundays.
May 2022 was our biggest one yet with Daryl Braithwaite, Richard Clapton, Ian Moss, Troy Cassar Daley, The Living End, Phil Jamieson, Diesel and The Black Sorrows – massive two weeks of amazing music and unforgettable memories for everyone involved.
In 2023 Music in Paradise hosted Xavier Rudd, Delta Goodrem and Birds of Tokyo in Maldives, and Jimmy Barnes with Kate Ceberano, Ian Moss, The Black Sorrows and Mahalia Barnes in Whitsundays.
The question on everyone’s lips after all these MUSIC IN PARADISE gigs always is: How could you ever go to a standard gig ever again?
In 2026, you can look forward to Birds of Tokyo, The Living End and Delta Goodrem in Fiji, Kate Miller-Heidke, Missy Higgins, ICEHOUSE, and the Cat Empire in the Maldives, Jimy Barnes, Mark Seymour, The Church and Mahalia Barnes in the Whitsundays and Jimmy Barnes, Ian Moss, Magic Dirt and The Cruel Sea in Bali.
Sitting literally metres from the stage on a bean bag, cocktail or beer in hand, partner, friends or family nearby, socializing with the musos and like-minded fans is unbeatable!
The most exclusive and intimate music events you will ever experience!
The feeling of value beyond the actual resort stay or a live music gig is unsurpassed in the marketplace.
Where will Music In Paradise end up?
No doubt, the sky is the limit!
Recently we have hosted Delta Goodrem, Xavier Rudd, Birds of Tokyo, Jimmy Barnes, Ian Moss and Richard Clapton, among others.
The concept is clearly much loved by both performers and most importantly fans.
We will continue to guarantee that Perfect Travel will continue to cap numbers that come along for the ride, ensuring Music In Paradise remains a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
