On Saturday, May 30th 2026, Aelan Riddim Music Festival 2026 brought together artists, music lovers, and communities from across the Pacific for an unforgettable celebration of Melanesian culture and unity.
This event was made possible not only by the talent on stage, but by the generosity and belief of our sponsors and partners. To every organisation and individual who stood with us โ we offer our sincere and profound gratitude.

๐ Pacific Crown Hotel
Pacific Crown Hotel did more than sponsor this event โ they hosted it. From providing the venue and stage to accommodating all our international artists, their support was foundational. They also opened their front desk 24/7 for ticket sales, ensuring no one was turned away. We are deeply grateful for their partnership.

Tourism SI and Air Niugini helped us close the distance between islands and bring the Pacific together.
โ Air Niugini, as our Official Carrier, transported our international artists. The airline also facilitated travel for visitors who came from across the region to experience Aelan Riddim, all of whom were accommodated at Pacific Crown Hotel.
โ Tourism Solomons continues to champion our nation as a vibrant destination for arts, culture, and entertainment, and their support helped share the spirit of Melanesian unity with a wider audience. You reminded us that our culture is worth sharing โ that our music can put the Solomon Islands on the map, and that when we celebrate together, the world watches.
Come for the Riddim. Stay for the culture.
Together, you brought the Pacific to our doorstep.
