A Celebration in Marrakesh, Morocco • 13 March 2027
The Celebration
Yemi turns 50 in 2027, and a quiet dinner wasn't going to cut it. Family and friends are flying into Marrakesh for a long weekend at an all-inclusive resort, Thursday to Sunday. Good food, warm nights, loud music and the people who've known him longest, all in one place.
Accommodation is now sorted, see the booking details below. Everything lands on this page first, and the WhatsApp group gets the running commentary.
Marrakesh, Morocco. Red city, blue skies, and an all-inclusive resort with pools, a gym, and entertainment to match.
The resort stay runs Thursday 11 to Sunday 14 March 2027, three nights, with the main celebration on Saturday 13th.
Know before you go
Here's what's sorted, what you're handling yourself, and what's still being pinned down.
Guests book and pay for their own flights.
Nearest airport is Marrakesh Menara (RAK). Fly into RAK and you're roughly 20 minutes from the resort by car.
Come dressed in your finest casual, whatever makes you feel good under warm sunshine. Traditional attire is absolutely welcomed and encouraged: an agbada, a kaftan, a dashiki, a boubou, if it's meaningful to you, wear it with pride.
Marrakesh in March is beautifully warm during the day and gently cool in the evenings, so think light, breezy fabrics, rich colours, and comfortable shoes you can dance in. There is no dress code to stress over, just come looking and feeling like the best version of yourself.
