Embarking on a journey through time, Kurumba Maldives invites guests to revel in the vibrant spirit of the 1980s during this festive season. A celebration of an era characterized by metal bands, big hair, and iconic fashion trends, the resort encourages visitors to don leg warmers, muscle shirts, or acid wash attire for an immersive experience. In homage to what is widely regarded as the best decade yet, attendees can make a grand entrance in a little red Corvette, setting the stage for a lively trip down memory lane. This festive extravaganza not only pays tribute to the pop-culture phenomenon that shaped the 1980s but also beckons guests to reminisce about beloved movies and songs from an era that introduced cultural icons such as MTV, the Walkman, and breakdancing.
