Chocolate Groove - ARIES FULL MOON Cacao Ecstatic Party

This SATURDAY, Chocolate Groove aligns with the Aries Full Moon, encouraging us to be boldly living in our truth! September 30th is also National Truth & Reconciliation Day in Canada. Acknowledging colonization here in Canada & the many atrocities facing First Nations people in history & TODAY. We are grateful and humbled to have local First Nations grass dance Roianakens sharing a workshop to encourage learning and growing within this topic. We are excited to also be hosting FABULA from Costa Rica as our headliner for the event. He is a Costa Rican native inspired by the jungle soundscapes. Fábula is a musician, storyteller, DJ, and Producer who curates deep danceable down and mid-tempo journeys with a silky but punchy twist. His sound palette is carefully curated to bend the borders of genres and blend the tales of cultures. We are also excited to welcome back Rose & Temple Grove to activate our night with their powerful heart songs. Peter Arcari will be back offering the Cacao Ceremony & closing Soun journey. Cacaoboy & Matty Ryce will be taking you all on a magical journey to start and end the full moon ride!
