Curating Extraordinary Experiences

The work

Challenge

Guests who can go anywhere, on an island that already has everything. The entertainment has to justify the journey.

What I did

Programmed the calendar end to end. Artist booking, production design, partnerships, then delivery on the island itself.

What changed

Four flagship nights a year, artists booked and delivered. Nights guests plan their travel around.

The island from the air: pool, beach and lagoon.
A lit tree and grand piano staged under palms, beams cutting through the night.
Performance on the beach stage, sparks and blue beams behind the band.
