Spring Break Fiji is an annual music festival and retreat organized by New Zealand-based tourism agency TourismHQ.[1] The five-day event is held annually at Beachcomber Island, a private island in Fiji.[2][3] It was founded by Rich Henry in 2013.[4]
History
[edit]Spring Break Fiji is TourismHQ’s second event in Fiji after establishing the event BlueSky in Fiji in 2012.[5] Rich Henry established the festival in 2013.[4] The event features activities such as catamaran rides, water sports, sand bank parties, and DJ sets from international EDM DJs.[3][6]
In 2015, Max Key, son of former New Zealand Prime Minister John Key, performed at the event as part of the DJ duo Troskey, alongside Joshua Troskie.[4][7] A fire broke out during this edition of the festival, which was quickly put out.[8][9] No one was injured and there were no major damages.[7][10]
The event held in 2023 was met with controversy when some guests complained about power outages and water shortages.[1][11] The organizers acknowledged the issues and said that the resort experienced a generator failure.[11]
Spring Break Fiji’s venue, Beachcomber Island, was purchased by Vision Hotels in 2024, which funded renovations including more accommodations for Spring Break Fiji attendees and a “swim-up pool”, which debuted during the 2025 edition.[12][13][14]
