Earth and Sun Festival
​​​​
August 1-5 Earth and Sun festival
Join us for 5 days of workshops, celebration and ceremony. More like a retreat than a festival. The days will have carefully curated workshops.
​
The evenings will be filled with fireside concerts.. We will also have some craft workshops, and lots of fun activities.
Our final nights celebration will be a masked ball with ecstatic dance to complete the gathering. We will have a cafe providing world cuisine or you can self-cater. This is a no drugs or alcohol space.
​​
The Earth and Sun festival is an expression of a new age of being, a way forward for the beings we have felt are here for a life of freedom and true sacredness.
​​
We have incredible souls honouring us here at Earth and Sun festival. Thomas Schorr-Kon and Sári Schorr-Kon have offered this space freely and with love. Peter Owen Jones talks to honour the spirit of nature. Carrie Tree blesses us with song and heart around sacred fire. Anna-Lisa Drew and Marc JB both create music and dance for ecstatic dancing. Thomas Christen drums, Algy Behrens blesses us with music. Greenness, Fern and Seren Rose will share their music and Grace Ariel, Sarah Joy, Matthew Shearing and many more including Melanie Cooper yoga and Sam Chara Chi Gong. We have sound healing, breath work and sauna for healing and Magnus for massage, cranial sacral therapy and healing work. Kirtan with Will Softmore, children’s crafts and dancing into the light evening of the summer. We love everybody thank you very much!
Program change: Unfortunately Carrie Tree has cancelled on Monday but we have found The wonderful Jont Openheart to take her place.

It is a semi-circular track, off the main track. (See hand drawn plan below) Keep all gates clear at all times.
We have had a number of problems with people parking in the wrong place. Please ensure you follow these instructions carefully. You will also help keep our relations with the other woodland owners harmonious.
