Rhodes, Greece
Your Island Odyssey Awaits
5-days of Music, Wellness, Workshops,
Mediterranean Beach-bliss
20 International DJs & Live Acts
🪄 Embark on a celebratory odyssey as Dream of Utopia marks its 6th Edition. Born from a vision in Berlin in 2020, our journey has flourished into a beloved Mediterranean gathering — and this year, Utopia sets sail to a new shore: stunning Rhodes — the Island of Light.
🌅 This year, we gather on these sunlit shores, where the sea whispers mantras of togetherness, ancient stones hold centuries of stories, and the Mediterranean sunsets paint dreams.
⛵ With a heart open to 250 kindred souls, Utopia transcends from a tranquil retreat of wellness, creativity, and outdoor discovery into a weekend of stellar musical acts and festivities… Let's weave a tapestry of memories with our maestros and fellow Utopians — every moment is an invitation to explore, connect, and celebrate.

SEP 23 WED
Prelude
Gather at sunset for our welcome ceremony at the beach — bonding rituals, whimsical games, and the first faces of our 2026 family. Dinner unfolds by the sea as the sky deepens, and our opening musical act ushers in the night, setting the stage for the connections and memories that will weave through the days ahead.
SEP 24 THU
Elevation
Rise with the day at the Acropolis of Rhodes — workshops and lunch among the ancient stadium and Temple of Apollo, where centuries meet the midday sun. The day elevates through wellness: sound healing, breathwork, art therapy, sunset meditation. As evening falls, a slow dinner — then music deep into the night...
SEP 25 FRI
Odyssey
An odyssey beyond Rhodes Town. We depart with buses to Lindos — the iconic clifftop acropolis, the white-washed alleys, and Saint Paul's Bay below. Time to explore, swim, drift, find lunch in the village. We return in the late afternoon. The evening opens with dinner and music — and a deep dancefloor carries us into the early hours.
SEP 26 SAT
Celebration
The Crescendo. Late morning we wander the medieval Old Town and the Palace of the Grand Master — a guided walk through the Street of the Knights, with workshops weaving through the courtyards. The music starts during the afternoon at the beach. Dinner as the sun sets, and the night becomes a kaleidoscope of joy — we dance, laugh, and celebrate life in all its facets.
SEP 27 SUN
Wind-down
A serene closing day. The afternoon invites reflection on our collective odyssey — a closing circle by the sea, gentle music, and the last shared meals. As the light softens, we begin the long farewell — and for those who want one more night, the afterparty awaits.
SEP 28 MON
Departure
A gentle farewell. Slow breakfast, lingering goodbyes, and the carry-home of everything we co-created together. Until next time.

SOUNDCLOUD SETS
Venue: Rhodes Town & Elli Beach
“Where Sunsets Paint Dreams and the Sea Sings Stories”
We meet on the sunlit shores of Rhodes — an island where Greek, Italian, and Turkish influences have woven for centuries, where the turquoise of Elli Beach meets the medieval heart of the Old Town. Our daytime home is the beach. As the sun sinks, the celebration moves into the heart of the night.
Daytime by the Sea — Elli Beach
Our daytime sanctuary. Sunset rituals, dancing on the sand, beach bliss, and Mediterranean horizons stretching to the Turkish coast. Cocktails passed between sun loungers, plunges into turquoise, lazy lunches of mezze and grilled fish.
Nighttime — venue revealed soon
The shape of our nights — dinner, music, the dancefloor — is taking form. The final reveal is just around the corner.
