The Sooriya Village is an idea birthed from the legendary “Sooriya” label, the pioneer in producing popular music in Sri Lanka during the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s. Today, the Sooriya brand once again enters the industry not only to aid musicians, but artists of all forms to help nurture and promote their creations through the facility’s versatile resources. The village essentially houses a recording studio, 2 rehearsal suits for performance arts, 1 practice space for visual arts, a library dedicated to the arts, a media/tech/lecture center, dormitory facilities, a private suite, a 100 seater restaurant guided by the hand of renowned chef Koluu, a Sooriya and Yamaha Music Center co-shared store, and much more, all created to support both amateur and established artists to grow within the industry.
