Inaugurated on November 24, 1996 on the former quays of the Port-Louis harbor, the Caudan Waterfront celebrates three decades of existence in 2026. Much more than a shopping mall, this multifunctional complex has become a veritable district of the Mauritian capital, combining shopping, gastronomy, culture and waterfront promenades. <\/b><\/p>\n

To mark this anniversary, Le Caudan’s management has put together a year-long program based on four key ambitions: to honor the memory of the site, stimulate artistic creation, multiply shared experiences and engage new generations.<\/p>\n

The festivities have already kicked off with Ritmik, a percussion concert, and the first Caudan Food Festival. A participatory fresco created with an artist from Monaco and the installation of monumental “Caudan 30” letters have also taken over the space. In May and June, “Caudan en Fleur” and the Nouzil Festival celebrate the cultures of Mauritius, Rodrigues, Agal\u00e9ga and the Chagos Islands. Winter will be devoted to memory, with the 30 Years, 30 Stories<\/i> exhibition and the screening of a documentary retracing the history of the waterfront. The Caudan Food Festival, the World ARC Rally and the Dikte dan Caudan in Mauritian Creole will set the pace in October. The celebrations culminate in November with the grand Caudan Festival and an art installation by Ze Kolektif. <\/p>\n

Thirty years after its opening, the Caudan remains a place apart in the Mauritian landscape. With the inauguration of the Blue Penny Museum in 2001 and the Caudan Arts Centre in 2018 – the first new theater to open in Mauritius in nearly a century – the site has never ceased to reinvent itself without ever losing its soul. A living heritage, rooted in the island’s history, which is about to write a new chapter. <\/p>\n
