Seychelles : La Digue Festival – Assumption Day Celebrations 2026
On one small granite island in the middle of the Indian Ocean, something remarkable happens every August 15. The car-free lanes of La Digue — already one of the most untouched and most visually extraordinary islands in all of Seychelles — fill with the sound of hymns, the scent of flowers, and the glow of candles carried by an entire community walking together in faith. Lafet La Digue (La Fête La Digue) is the most beloved and most culturally complete festival in the Seychelles calendar, falling on Saturday August 15, 2026 — the Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, a national public holiday across the entire archipelago.
