Coalesce is a wholesome family friendly gathering with the unique feel of being a little bit festival, a little bit retreat and whole lot of magic! Located on a crystal mountain among pristine beech forest and lime outcrops the festival provides the opportunity to engage with community through play spaces, workshops, live music and dj's, performances (our cabaret night has quite the reputation!) and over food in the communal kitchen.But what makes Coalesce special is what YOU bring - we know you have something special to share!
* We will have a number of spaces available for scheduled workshops and performances. Applications are open for those interested in sharing their talent, knowledge and passion to tell us what they have in mind! There will also be plenty of space for spontaneous offerings with a noticeboard and spaces available to organically connect and share!
Mission Statement:
“To come together in nature to honour the seasonal changes in energy, upholding an inclusive and nourishing space for the intergenerational and diverse nature of our community, expanding and strengthening our communities by consciously exploring co-creation, through the production of a heart-centred celebration of life featuring community sourced offerings of music, knowledge, movement and creativity.”
