Enliven Wellness Festival 2026

Connection is Our Medicine ✨ Enliven is a festival curated for those who love to dance, celebrate, jam, and let their inner feral creature come out to play! At the same time, it's for us who honor the earth and her cycles, have a soft spot for deep and meaningful conversations, and choose to listen to our bodies when they need to rest. It’s a place where reverence and ceremony coexist with ecstatic joy and lively dance floors. We believe that our collective expression, in all its forms, is a prayer for a more beautiful world, a world that STAYS REAL and puts connection first - to self, others, earth, and spirit or life itself. Over the years we've seen that coming together in this way creates a profound impact on the life and love that we share. The intimate nature of this gathering means you can take up space on the dancefloor, you’ll never really “lose” your friends, you’ll see the same humans over and over throughout their festival journey. You’ll be taught a workshop by somebody in the morning, and by afternoon you might be partnered with them in the next, or be teaching them. ALL of you is welcome here. And we can say that with the utmost conviction - bring your gifts, bring your grief and your joy, your rage and anguish, your generosity and your pleasure. Come broken & uncertain with an empty cup in order to receive and deeply replenish your being, or with your cup overflowing to share your medicine and be the light in someone’s day. This year we have extended our festival by a full day, to create more spaciousness, depth, and room for connection. The festival will now begin on Thursday evening, and early entry will begin on Wednesday. Enjoy 5 days of: - DJ's & Live Music - Ecstatic Dance - Contact Dance - Ceremony - Embodiment Practices - Yoga & Acroyoga - Vocal Freedom & Song Circles - Earth Connection - Ancestral Skills - Breathwork - Sound Journeys - Drum Circles - Tantric Embodiment - Personal Empowerment - Local Artists & Artisans - Play & Games - Indigenous Storytelling - Open Mic & Fireside Jams - Authentic Relating - Kid's Activities - & more! For those who have experienced Enliven, they know it's just as much about the incredible community and the serendipitous connections as it is the high quality facilitation and performances. We aim to provide you a full spectrum experience that caters to the conscious parts of you that crave depth and meaning, while keeping our feet firmly planted in the ground. It's in the name.... We're here to feel more ALIVE <3 to inhabit our bodies and our feelings so fully that we remember the miracle of this existence, and grow the strength to forge on through hard times. In community we are stronger <3 Watch Our 2024 Official Aftermovie!
