Lovefest is about Love for self, community, and earth.
Celebrate Connection, Creativity, and Conscious living with Live Music, DJ’s, Conscious Dance, Relational and Embodiment Workshops, Cultural Performances, Permaculture, inspirational discussions, and learn the HAKA for Life.
In one of Aotearoa’s most beautiful areas in nature, at Tui Community, nestled near the Abel Tasman National Park.
Lovefest Golden Bay is a collaboration between Embodied Freedom, SoulHum and Lovefest, the biggest conscious sober festival movement in Australia and this is the first of its kind in Aotearoa / New Zealand.
Embodied Freedom is a movement of people reclaiming & remembering community, with SoulHum - a group of young people joining the co-creation.
As the weather starts to get cooler, we stoke up the fire, share food, stories, dance, sing, laugh, play and snuggle up under the stars.
