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.

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!
Life changing
Watching your favourite band in a country as beautiful as Fiji is well and truly a dream come true. Music in Paradise is not just an amazing company with wonderful staff working tirelessly behind the scenes but it’s also what you get. I can away with friends, family, memories, a great tan and a new fiancé. The occasion and the venue will remain in my life forever. Huge thanks to the people of Fiji who are the kindest people you could meet, Bula Vinaka until next time x
Once in a lifetime event is an understatement
These events really and truly are music in paradise! Friends for life and memories to cherish forever! If you find yourself questioning the opportunity… DON’T. Just book it! Life is way too short!
The best music experience I've had
I went to see the Teskey Brothers in Fiji. I am a Teskey fan, but my wife and 4 other friends joined me without really knowing the band. Me, but more importantly, my wife and friends, were blown away by the whole experience. The location truly is paradise with white sand, clear blue water and coral snorkeling at your doorstep. I’m a music lover and I can’t count the number of awesome live music experiences I’ve had from intimate shows to massive, big act, stadium shows to events like Mundi Mundi where you camp onsite over three days to see multiple artists, but I just can’t express enough how different this was to all other music experiences I’ve had. To be onsite just a short walk to the concert location, arrive so relaxed after a day in paradise and enjoy the music watching the sun set over the ocean was just amazing – I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face. My friends enjoyed it just as much without even knowing the set. They are Teskey fans now and their music will always remind them of this amazing week. Thanks MIP for such a unique experience.
Teskey's Smash it in Fiji Paradise
It’s hard to describe how good The Teskey Brothers were at the Music in Paradise event held at the Intercontinental Golf & Spa Resort at Sigatoka, Fiji. After enjoying their three fabulous intimate concerts it left me in no doubt that they are the best band in Oz at the moment and a once in a generation band. Thank you Music In Paradise for putting on such a wonderful week. A fantastic memory we will have for life. Bravo.
What. A. Week ! TEN STARS!
A dreamy tropical destination combined with an artist whose music I adore seemed like the perfect combination for a holiday.
Despite these very high expectations, I still came away from my time in the Maldives completely blown away by the experience.
By day – diving, snorkelling, surfing, swimming with sharks, or just lazing about on the beach.
By night – Watching a performer whose music has been one of the soundtracks of my life in a magical, intimate setting. Missy was INCREDIBLE!
The organisation and communication ahead of the trip was top class. The accommodation was exceptional, the food was fantastic, and the other guests were brilliant fun.
If a performer who rocks your world is offering an upcoming Music in Paradise adventure: 3 words – JUST DO IT!
Once in a lifetime…
A nice resort on a beautiful beach is already enough to make for an excellent vacation. Why ask for more? Why get greedy? These experiences deliver that and more. Amazing music in incredible locations, professional sound, top tier accommodations and intimate settings. The Teskey Brothers and Music in Paradise made for a once in lifetime vacation.
The Forever You And Me in Fiji Music In Paradise event with the amazing Teskey Brothers
The Forever You And Me in Fiji Music In Paradise event with The Teskey Brothers was a once-in-a-lifetime dream come true for fans of this amazing band. The MIP organization was impeccable down to the WhatsApp chat, special shout-out to Lara. Thank you for your patience and help.
The location was dreamy, especially coming from rainy and cold Europe. We enjoyed the tropical location and the waters of Natadola Beach. The staff of the Intercontinental Resort, especially Sera at breakfast who greeted everybody by name, was absolutely amazing.
We had the pleasure to meet wonderful people who agreed to sign “the book”, we will treasure these memories forever – Danke, thank you, merci.
We will definitely book another Music in Paradise event again soon.
Awesome, Teskey's in Fiji

Still buzzing from Xavier Rudd – Music in Paradise 2025.
I’ve been listening to Xavier for over 20 years and seen him play countless times, but this was on another level. The sunsets, the music, the people, the energy — just magic.
Sharing it with my whole family and closest friends in Fiji made it even more special. The Fijian people were incredible, the resort was unreal, and every moment felt like pure connection.
A lifetime high. Couldn’t fault a thing — I’d do it all again in a heartbeat.
Music in Paradise does it again!
Feeling rundown? Need some time away from work etc? Do yourself a favour and check out the events the MIP team have available, there is something for everyone. What a stellar week we’ve had with the MIP team and the Teskey Brothers! This is our second trip with the MIP team and all I have to say, we’ll be doing it again xxx
Core memory trip--
The most amazing week watching our favorite band in such an intimate setting. Sitting in bean bags or dancing on the side…it was magic. Plus we made friends for a lifetime from all over the world. Can’t wait for the next one
Amazing music at an amazing place
I really can’t think of a criticism here.
This is a wonderful resort with the most delightful friendly staff. Weather perfect. Lovely meals.
Met many new people.
And last of all,and best of all the music, I have seen the Teskys before, but not like this. Pretty sure they enjoyed it too.
And. Have to say those pesky Teskys were everywhere. On the bus, at the school, in the restaurant, in my way in front of the toaster, and on the plane.
So thank you to them and to you guys. This is my second MIP event. Next one already booked.
Top 5 experience of my life
What an incredible job by the MIP team. They made the trip effortless, a vacation where we could truly relax.
The concerts themselves were beyond amazing. I didn’t think Monday’s concert could get better, but Wednesday and Thursday did. What an incredible experience to get to know the band members and their families as they walked around the resort and interacted with us all week.
The MIP experience has spoiled me for all future concerts, and created an expectation that I don’t believe will be topped.
Absolute perfection
The day I received an email from The Teskey Brothers about “Forever You and Me in Fiji” I was in the midst of chemo treatment and feeling pretty awful. It was just the inspo I needed to get through the year and we booked that same day.
Wow, it did not disappoint! Right from the start the communication from the Music in Paradise team was excellent, very helpful and responsive. And when you meet them they are all so lovely and welcoming. The event itself was organised seamlessly. We danced, we did some super fun activities such as snorkelling and the jet ski safari, we met some beautiful like-minded people, and importantly we relaxed and got to spend some quality time together after such a life changing experience. The Teskey Brothers music reaches into your soul and experiencing them in this format was absolute perfection. Thanks so much to the MIP team, I can’t wait to do it all again some day.
“It’s not the land I miss here, not the trees that grow and sway. It’s the memories of laughter, and the friends that shared this change.”
Pure Joy
I mean, can you really beat small laid back crowds, great tunes, gathering at sunset, surrounded by nature in one of the most beautiful locations with a cold drink in hand?
Most of my memories attached to the music was from before I had my family, it was so nice to see people from all walks of life, but it was especially beautiful for us to have this experience as a family and let the kids run free. I now have so many new memories attached to the songs.
It’s not often your sipping a bev, watching your children play on the beach with Xavier Rudds kids, listening to him sing while the sun sets into a crystal blue ocean. Sounds ridiculous because it was! We loved it so much and came back hearts and heads full of joy, not only from the music but because of how and where it all took place. A stunningly beautiful location and infectious joy and happiness of the the Fijian culture left us full of joy and wanting to return.
ANYWHERE WITH JIMMY BARNES!!!!
The best there is to music, songs, artists and simply a true WORKING CLASS MAN with the biggest heart of gold. Family and music and his family all wrapped in one amazing man!
Barnsey! What else can I say!
I absolutely adore Jimmy Barnes and think he’s a great Australian. I love listening to his songs and often can be heard rocking along to his music as I do my housework. He’s a wonderful guy and his daughter is also a wonderful singer. I saw her as Mary in Jesus Christ Superstar and thoroughly enjoyed her performance. Jane also has an excellent voice!
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!
