Spotlight Zone: Masterclasses in Lifestyle and Design
New for 2026, the Official Spotlight Zone Partner, Tropicana Corporation Berhad, is curating a space that introduces a series of masterclasses and talks that explore the craft, provenance and design thinking behind some of the world’s leading brands.
The line-up includes wine sessions led by sommeliers in partnership with Angra Wine & Spirits, offering a deeper look into rare viticulture, alongside whisky masterclasses with Brown-Forman that explore the heritage of the Scottish Highlands through expressions from The Glendronach and Glenglassaugh.
Culinary experiences include oyster and cheese tastings with Classic Fine Foods, while fireside conversations with Porsche designers examine the intersection of automotive excellence and lifestyle design.
Heritage, Wellness and Experiential Zones
The festival brings together family-friendly programs including maritime heritage, modern wellness and hands-on experiences across a series of dedicated zones.
Making a return to the marina, the 130-year-old vessel Vega 1892 serves as a living testament to maritime history. Beyond its presence on the water, the “Sail of Hope” offers visitors the opportunity to hear firsthand stories from its ongoing humanitarian missions across remote archipelagos.
In contrast, a new wellness offering by Teiāh Hospitality introduces the Superyacht Wellness Experience, a ticketed experience centred on the science of high-performance living. Guests are guided through a two-hour journey exploring biohacking techniques and recovery rituals, demonstrating how advanced wellness technologies can support focus and wellbeing both on and off the water.
Elsewhere, the Experiential Zone provides a more hands-on perspective, with activities ranging from electric foiling and paddleboarding to fishing and underwater propulsion devices, giving visitors the chance to engage directly with a new generation of water-based equipment.
On Land: Lifestyle and Dining Experiences
Beyond the marina, a series of land-based experiences bring together automotive, dining and social elements. Daily supercar parades will feature a collection of marques including Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche and McLaren. As the Official Car Partner, Porsche, will also present its inaugural fleet services program as part of the Festival experience.
At the Festival Village, visitors can explore a mix of dining concepts, including Skillet, known for its woodfired barbecue, alongside craft cocktail concoctions from Lap Spirits.
Across the site, Jebsen & Jessen will provide a dedicated transport service to ensure seamless mobility between sites, featuring premium Club Car buggies.
