Market Under the Palm Trees

Join us as we relive the magic of the Market Under the Palm Trees.
W15 Weligama was the place to be on the 30th of April, 2023. People from all over the island made their way to the beachfront property for the ultimate day of music, shopping, and all-around fun at the Market Under the Palm Trees.
Although the market was initially planned for the 29th of April, it was postponed to the next day due to unforeseen weather. Nonetheless, the delay did not dampen the spirits of the people who came in droves to enjoy the event.
As the day began, the beach came alive with people taking on the waves, while groovy tunes from W15 Weligama added to the ambience. The sounds of Magic Banda and Ravin David serenaded the soul with some amazing tunes, followed by Paul Claramonte laying down some incredible beats to groove to, filled the air and set the tone for the day.
The market was a shopper's paradise, with all the coolest gear stocked under the palm trees. From sizzling swimwear to mouth-watering munchies, the vendors had it all. The Mehendi tattoos on deck added some boho flair to everyone's style, while unique jewellery, threads, and skin care products were available to elevate the beach vibe.
What made the Market Under the Palm Trees at W15 Weligama unique was the personalised touch. The vendors were friendly and welcoming, and the music was carefully curated to set the right mood.
For those who missed out on the event, don't worry. W15 Weligama always has something exciting in store. Keep an eye out for their next event, and make sure to mark your calendars. Whether you're a local or a traveller, W15 Weligama is the perfect destination for an unforgettable beach experience.
