Kayan Wellness Festival lands on Fahid Island with global speakers, sunrise yoga, breathwork and beachside calm all weekend
Steve Bartlett is coming to Abu Dhabi. So is Bear Grylls. Marianne Williamson, Peter Crone, Dr Khaled Ghattass and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau. Yes, those big names are all heading to the capital for the Kayan Wellness Festival this weekend.
The Kayan Wellness Festival is turning Fahid Island into one of the most interesting places to be from February 6 to 8, 2026.

Bartlett, the straight-talking entrepreneur behind The Diary of a CEO, brings his big brain energy and hard truths about business and burnout. Grylls, everyone’s favourite survival expert, swaps wild jungles for inner resilience. Williamson dives into the spiritual and emotional stuff that lingers long after the applause. Crone tackles mindset blocks. Ghattass explores functional medicine and how to actually feel better, not just look it on Instagram. Grégoire Trudeau adds a deeply human lens on mental health and community.
Mornings kick off with yoga, Pilates and somatic movement. Breathwork sessions and ice baths test your limits. Later, sound healing, cacao ceremonies and live music take over as the sky softens and the sea goes glassy.

There will be zones dedicated to body, mind, soul and heart, picking what you need in that moment. There’s also a Longevity Hub packed with biohacking experiences and expert sessions focused on energy, health and sustainable living. Think of it as a weekend of reset, not a race. If your year already feels noisy, Kayan offers something rare. A chance to pause, listen and maybe, finally, exhale. Book your pass here.
