Now is the time to book your trip to the South Pacific for the Tapati Festival next year, a celebration of traditional Rapa Nui music, dance, food and traditional competitions on Easter Island.

Scheduled for 9-17 February 2024, the festival is the best way for visitors to immerse themselves in the unique culture of this remote South Pacific island.

Among the highlights are the coronation of the festival king and queen; a music and dance filled parade through the streets of Hanga Roa; and dance, song and body art competitions.

Among the many ancestral sports competitions are the audacious Haka Pei downhill log ride and the Tau’a Rapa Nui, that triathlon inside Rano Raraku volcanic crater that involves paddling, running and swimming.

From flights to hotel and event access, Chile Concept can handle all of the arrangements for a visit to Easter Island during Tapati.
