Ooredoo Fun Run (03:30 pm-06:00 pm)

Ooredoo Fun Run – described by Ooredoo as the “biggest and happiest” run in the Maldives - is a fun-filled 5K run designed to be enjoyed by families and friends of all ages.

Each kilometer covered will be celebrated with a unique fun station with colors, water and fun obstacles.

Ooredoo Music Festival (08:00 pm)

Following the Fun Run, Ooredoo Maldives will be hosting a fun music show open for public featuring fan-favorites from the Maldivian music industry including:
