Join us for the 2018 New Moon Festival - Yosemite Edition. This all-inclusive retreat into one of the most serene landscapes on earth brings together 150 influencers from around the world to DISCOVER the majesty of nature, to EMBRACE the gifts and lessons which surround us, and to invoke PRESENCE as our most pressing responsibility.
They say that each new moon is a time for renewal of energy and purpose - the New Moon Festival is the space for precisely that. We have created the ultimate restorative experience by bringing together expert practitioners, healers, adventurers, and leaders to guide guests through a transformative weekend set against the backdrop of Yosemite's breathtaking natural beauty.
