Mariafe Artacho del Solar
Olympian & Beach Volleyball Champion
Mariafe is a beach volleyball sensation and one half of the Australian Beach volleyball team. Growing up in Peru and moving to Australia at age 11 she took up beach volleyball for the first time. She was just 13, when she then took the international stage by storm at the U19 World Championships. By 21, she had competed in the 2016 Rio Olympics and in Tokyo four years later clinched a silver medal. She has amassed over 20 international medals and finished fourth in the world in the recently concluded Paris 2024 Olympics.
A strong role model for aspiring athletes, Mariafe is passionate about the ‘mental game’ that is inherent for an athlete’s success and is committed to helping others build resilience and courage.
She is strong, disciplined and committed and as the name ‘Del Solar’ suggests, she always brings a touch of sunshine. Believing in the importance of balance and planning for the future, in November 2023, she launched her own loungewear label ‘Del Solar’.
Mariafe is available for media & PR opportunities, corporate hosting and speaking and brand partnerships.
