FOMO Connect Staycation 2025
27–28 December 2025 | Derby, UK

This year end staycation was held as a social and cultural gathering for the Malayali community. The event included a two night ensuite stay with shared rooms, Naadan food, a Christmas feast, silent disco, live jam sessions, open mic and talkathon sessions, group games, icebreaking activities, a midnight Maggi bar, lucky draw, giveaways, and a year end celebration. The stay ran from Saturday evening to Monday morning and hosted up to 104 participants.

Mallu Strangers Night – Season 1
5–7 November 2022 – Chester, CH2 4JP

This was our first event, and it turned out to be something truly special. We shared tasty Kerala-style food, stayed together in warm rooms, and sat around the campfire singing and talking. There was live music, open mic fun, and plenty of dancing. What started as a weekend of strangers ended with new friendships and happy memories.

Mallu Strangers Night – Season 2
11–13 March 2023 – Cumbria, UK

This event brought even more fun. We had Kerala snacks, Zumba sessions, a silent disco, and evening bonfires. People went hiking and enjoyed peaceful nature. There was a lot of singing, dancing, and group games. And when the snow started falling, it felt like magic — a real highlight that made the weekend even more special.

Mallu Camp Onam – Season 1
19–21 August 2023 – Derby, DE12 6BD

This was our very first Onam staycation in the UK — full of colour, culture, and community. We enjoyed a big Onam Sadhya, flower designs (Pookalam), fun with Maveli, and a traditional outfit contest. There were outdoor games like tug of war, DJ nights, and live comedy and stage shows. Everyone had a great time and left with big smiles.

Mallu Camp Onam – Season 2
31 August – 2 September 2024 – Horsham, RH13 6RG

Our second Onam camp felt like coming home. It had a peaceful holiday feel, Kerala-style meals, campfires, music, and dancing. We played games, shared laughs, and met lots of new friends. It was full of warm moments, fun activities, and a real sense of community. Everyone left feeling connected and happy.

Mallu Camp Onam – Season 3
5 to 7 September 2025 – Devon, EX20 1QW

Season Three of Mallu Camp Onam was held in the scenic countryside of Devon and became one of our most memorable staycations. Guests enjoyed delicious meals, Onam themed activities, music, campfires and plenty of relaxed moments together. The peaceful surroundings and warm community spirit made the weekend truly special, creating beautiful memories from Friday evening to Sunday morning.
