Oulad Yaich

Skydiving and the Festival of Olives represent two very different travel interests around Oulad Yaich: an active pursuit and a gathering dedicated to the olive tree. The 2026 edition also included Tbourida performances. This range of options is a good starting point when looking for a holiday rental. Ask yourself whether an activity or a cultural event should shape your stay more; deciding on this priority makes the next step in planning more concrete.

Skydiving as a travel interest

A tourist map published in 2022 associated skydiving with Oulad Yaich. This makes the activity a specific point of interest for travellers considering an active focus. For your planning, consider how important skydiving should be: is it the reason for your stay, or one of several interests? Weighing this up helps you decide what to focus on during your trip without assuming a specific programme in advance.

The Festival of Olives: the olive tree and Tbourida

The Festival of Olives is an annual gathering dedicated to the olive tree; in 2026, it reached its 14th edition. It took place from 17 to 19 April at the Bezzaza Centre in the municipality of Oulad Yaich. The edition featured numerous horsemen in several groups from different locations in Béni Mellal Province, giving Tbourida performances in the “Al Mahrek” area. Two aspects therefore sit side by side: the gathering’s dedication to the olive tree and the performances by the horsemen’s groups.

The venue and the participants’ origins point to different geographic levels: the festival took place in the municipality of Oulad Yaich, while the horsemen’s groups came from different locations in Béni Mellal Province. This distinction helps put the event in context without conflating the festival venue with the participants’ places of origin. For visitors, the edition thus offers both a specific connection to the municipality and a glimpse of participation from several locations across the province.

Plan your travel dates and holiday rental

The April dates refer to the 2026 edition; if you are planning to attend a later festival, check the date for that edition. For skydiving, confirm the latest dates for your intended stay. You can then search for a holiday rental for your chosen travel dates.

If you are travelling with others, you can make the decision together: which of the two ideas interests your group more, and which should determine the timing of your trip? This gives you a chance to discuss different preferences before settling on dates and a holiday rental. The festival, with its dedication to the olive tree and Tbourida performances, provides a cultural focus, while skydiving offers an active alternative.
