Banyan Group Celebrates Milestone of 100 Properties with Global Festivities

Banyan Group's 100 Journeys: A Global Celebration of Milestones

The Banyan Group, officially known as Banyan Tree Holdings Limited, is stepping into a monumental phase as it approaches the grand opening of its 100th property. This remarkable achievement will be celebrated on a global scale through a campaign titled 100 Journeys, which spans 100 days of festivities leading up to this important milestone. The celebrations will culminate in a week-long festival at the Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree in Singapore from November 27 to December 3, 2025.

A Tribute to Places and People

At the heart of 100 Journeys lies a dedication to the communities, cultures, and landscapes that have played a pivotal role in shaping the Banyan Group’s extensive portfolio. Over the years, the group has grown from its inaugural resort in Phuket to now boasting 12 brands across 20 destinations. This initiative highlights the significance of stewardship and shared impacts, celebrating not just the properties but the people and places that contribute to the essence of each destination.

During the festival week at Mandai Rainforest Resort, attendees can expect engaging discovery trails, wellbeing sessions, and various community activities designed to foster connection and cultural exchange. Not only are these events a celebration of Banyan's journey, but they also aim to give back, as proceeds from ticket sales will be generously matched by the group and donated to the President's Challenge. This annual campaign in Singapore supports local charities and social initiatives, reinforcing Banyan’s commitment to impactful hospitality.

Exploring New Horizons

The campaign officially kicked off on September 1, 2025, symbolizing a celebration of collective stories, personal growth, and transformative experiences. Each of the resorts within the Banyan Group is encouraged to engage guests in culturally immersive activities that reflect local customs and traditions. 100 Journeys aims to tell a larger narrative of respect and appreciation towards the destinations while anchoring its foundation on enriching individual experiences.

Highlights of the 100 Discoveries

In celebration of this landmark occasion, Banyan Group is featuring 100 unique experiences tailored to immerse travelers in the local culture of each property. For example, guests at Banyan Tree Ringha will have the chance to participate in Tibetan black pottery-making, while culinary enthusiasts at Cassia Phuket can engage in cooking classes featuring local dishes. Meditation sessions near temples at Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto offer guests a pathway to tranquility and self-reflection.

Moreover, guests can enjoy a wealth of outdoor activities such as exploring ancient geological formations at Banyan Tree AlUla and taking part in eco-focused experiences like bamboo rafting at Banyan Tree Yangshuo or diving at Dhawa Ihuru in the Maldives. Each property aims to inspire guests to deepen their understanding of local cultures through these curated, authentic cultural experiences.
