Do all things music, wellness and art excite you?
Then Ras Al Khaimah’s first wellness festival, named RAKtopia, sounds like it will be your scene.
Organisers want RAKtopia to be where Ras Al Khaimah and Utopia meet (hence the name) and it is for those who seek relaxing vibes while taking parting in activities while hearing musical beats.

Running from October 22 – 23, at Longbeach Campground in Ras Al Khaimah, RAKtopia will showcase artists, hosts ceramic and mandala workshops and local DJs, NU, LUM and 2Third, pumping out electronic music into the night.
As for the activities at the sun-soaked beach festival, the line-up of practitioners and performers sound interesting.
Experienced yogi Allaoua Gaham will lay on a body movement awareness classed, Sarah White will do guided meditation sessions, Pilates classes will be led by Tamara Khoury and jamming sessions with Charl Chakra will let you unleash your musical side.
This sounds like a great event for likeminded people to come together to revitalise and relax.
Tickets are limited and available to purchase from Platinumlist, with early bird tickets available now.
You can book one day of the festival or two on combo deals. There is also the option to stay overnight.
Will you be taking a trip to RAKtopia in October?
