These are the two main nights, though the organisers have included a series of beach parties for during the day and events in night clubs in the evenings, with live radio broadcasts, as well as a series of comedy acts that are the main focus on the Friday.
The principal venue is the Harbor Square Arena in the capital, Oranjestad. The festival actually takes place over several days and in some publicity materials.

The History of the Aruba Soul Beach Music Festival
This is the twentieth year of the festival that was named as the number one summer festival by Jetsetter magazine. It is held on the days leading up to and on the day of the Memorial Day holiday held in the US that honours the military personnel who died serving their country.
Responsible Tourism in Aruba
The Dutch Caribbean island has been at the vauguard of the fight against plastics and to preserve its marine environment. In 2017, the government announced a ban on all single-use plastics, which came into force in 2019. Authorities have also introduced a series of events to protect is endangered coral reefs.
Other Things to Do on Aruba
Aruba has year-round warm weather and many fine white sand beaches. A wide range of water sports are available including scuba diving, snorkelling, kite surfing, windsurfing, water skiing, kayaking, fishing and sailing.
The capital, Oranjestad is worth a visit for the brightly-coloured old buildings and Fort Zoutman can be visited. It also houses the historical museum. The landscape is arid and rugged, yet scenic and a hike to the top of Hooiberg Hill provides great views over the small island.
Most goods need to be imported so many things here are expensive.
