Welcome to THE VILLAGE

5 days collectively remembering how to live together

To all friends, old and new…

A warm welcome to our annual Summer Gathering.

Having undergone a momentous transformation this past year. The village is returning to its roots, offering co-created, low-cost, inclusive, family well-being gatherings that bring us together to connect to ourselves, one another and the natural world.

Thanks to massive support from the landowner and team, we are able to REDUCE OUR PRICE from last year and offer 5 days of camping in nature with all workshops included from just £80 for adult tickets on a sliding scale!

We won't be paying a few headlining musicians loads of money and expecting everyone else to make offerings for free.

We are here to collaborate across the board and every penny of profit will be going towards our Sanctuary Fund which we will use to actually create a Village. One you may just wish to be a part of.

What is the Village?

A 5-day wellness gathering to come together in community with the intention to deepen our connection to ourselves, one another and nature.

There will be music, yoga, meditation, dance, breathwork, healthy food, healing workshops, children's workshops & much more.

Drug and alcohol-free event.

At the heart of the village is an invitation for us all to slow down enough to truly meet one another and connect to a felt sense of belonging.

We expanded last year, increasing the schedule to four workshops happening simultaneously. Taking on board the feedback that too many workshops can be overwhelming with choices, we are stripping it back to ONE workshop at a time, with plenty of breathing space for magical co-creations to emerge organically.

We will move as one tribe with the option to either engage with the village journey or follow your own flow and rejuvenate yourself on your own or in our dedicated emergent spaces.

~ OUR PROMISE ~

You have our word that we will use every pound of profit to continue our quest of finding land to build a Village on. We are taking these first steps thanks to your support and you get to enjoy an epic Village experience!
Win-win me thinks.

~ SACRED SUBSTANCE POLICY ~

This event will provide an opportunity to detox from phones, substances, and daily distractions. We hold it as a non-negotiable agreement that you do not use mind-altering substances if you wish to join. This includes alcohol, marijuana and other drugs + plant medicines. We trust that the energy of the space and the practices offered will support you in feeling confident and at home, without the need for any external substances. If you have medical reasons for needing substances and are unsure whether this is suitable, please get in touch with us.

~ THE 4 VILLAGE CEREMONIES ~ The root of what The Village Festival stands for pivots around our 4 Ceremonies. These anchor points are there to help us maintain a Sacred and Transformational container for the 5 days.

Opening Ceremony
Here we arrive in the space. We set the container and the agreements for our shared time together. We set intentions and we find the point of unity between us all. That core value we can all stand behind and bow to. We will also form our Fellowships for the 5 days.

Village Ritual
A playful experiment to drop into the amplified field of imagination. What would it look like if were genuinely living in a Village together. What archetype would you be holding? Are you a Shaman or a Warrior? Can you touch the edge of your comfort zone and move into the aliveness that comes on the other side? This ritual will be a generational devotional act and a planting of a seed that we hope to see flourish in the years to come.

Unification Ceremony
We will have a men's circle, a women’s circle and a gender flowing circle. After dropping in together, we will emerge into the space to meet eye-to-eye. An opportunity to let go of past grievances so we can move forward in respect, celebration, honouring and healing.

Closing Ceremony
Wrapping up the weekend. Sitting deep with what you can truly take away from your Village experience and implement into your everyday life as you return home.

*Family Friendly*
*Pet Friendly - read our Animal Policy here*

There is parking on site.
Bring a tent or caravan.

This year we have a small team who will be doing the main organising/spaceholding. Everyone is invited to volunteer a little bit of time to support, as that's how we can keep the costs so low.

If you've bought a ticket and also want to offer a workshop, please let us know ✨️
