Hospitality on the Beach Partners with Nautica Collective for Exclusive Yacht Experience
A New Way to Experience Hospitality On The Beach
Hospitality’s flagship drum & bass holiday, Hospitality On The Beach, is unveiling a truly unique addition for their 2026 edition. By partnering with luxury sailing specialists Nautica Collective, the festival is launching an exclusive, elevated way to experience the event: an intimate eight-day yacht voyage along Croatia’s stunning coastline, culminating at the festival’s home, The Garden Resort in Tisno.
This collaboration marks a significant milestone for the renowned Tisno destination. It is the first time a festival at this iconic site—which hosts some of Europe’s most celebrated summer gatherings—has offered an exclusive Adriatic yacht voyage as an integrated part of the festival experience. Festival tickets are included in the package, and guests can secure their cabin with a £500pp deposit, with flexible payment plans available. For larger groups, a full five-cabin yacht can be chartered exclusively for up to 10 guests.
Curated Luxury and Musical Immersion
Designed for music-loving travelers seeking a more sophisticated festival experience, the voyage delivers a perfect balance of adventure, escapism, and world-class music. Guests enjoy private yacht living with the option to dip into one of electronic music’s most celebrated beachside festivals just minutes away on the shoreline. Each yacht accommodates up to 10 guests, creating an intimate environment more akin to a private charter than a traditional festival package, complete with curated dining and island exploration.
Lucy Buckmaster, Founder of Nautica Collective, shared her enthusiasm for the partnership: “We’re incredibly excited to be taking Nautica to the next level in collaboration with the world’s leading drum & bass brand. With my background in music travel and festivals, creating music-led experiences has always been something I’m deeply passionate about, so this partnership feels especially exciting. By combining the energy of a destination festival with a premium yacht adventure over eight days, we’re creating something truly unique for fans — a one-of-a-kind experience that pushes the boundaries of what a music festival can be.”
The Ultimate Adriatic Itinerary
Guests will spend eight days and seven nights aboard a premium five-cabin sailing catamaran, exploring Croatia’s Dalmatian islands before arriving in Tisno as the festival unfolds. Each yacht comes with a dedicated skipper and onboard chef, with all meals and drinks included. The flexible sailing itinerary allows guests to discover hidden coves, swim in crystal-clear waters, and anchor in picturesque island towns. The experience also offers seamless access to the festival, including transfers to boat parties and Barbarella’s afterparties on the mainland.
Arriving in Tisno on 30th June, guests will have exclusive access to the festival’s private pre-party, before the full event begins on 1st July. From then on, they can step ashore to experience the legendary atmosphere of the Beach Stage, Olive Grove Stage, and the Main Stage. The 2026 lineup features a heavyweight program including Sub Focus, Andy C, Metrik, Kings of the Rollers, Calibre, Dillinja, Flava D, and Lens.
Optional curated experiences are also available, including onboard wine tastings featuring Croatian wines hosted by wine expert Domm The Somm (aka Dynamite MC), intimate sunset DJ sets at anchor from Hospital Records artists, and private vineyard tours on nearby islands. With only a limited number of yachts available for its inaugural year, this partnership offers a rare opportunity to combine luxury sailing with one of electronic music’s most iconic beachside festivals.
