Rhythm Sphere

Revel is moving towards its fourth running year. Currently, the festival is found under the August meteor shower sky, next to the beautiful Similkameen River in Snaza’ist, also known as Hedley, BC. Snaza’ist means striped rock place and is a valley with many different species of animals such as bats and rattlesnakes as well as an abundance of plants and minerals such as ochre, chalcedony, jade and gold.

Revel inspires to create a welcoming, inspiring, electrifying, peaceful and nurturing space for everyone to find connection and healing through dance. Our hope is that together we can find a healthier and more sustainable form of raving with respect for the land we dance on so that we can share our love for music together for many more years to come.

For one Revel filled night, we offer you a taste of this magical event here in Victoria. Expect a high caliber vibe, high caliber musical selections, live electronic breakbeat set, inspiring scratch mixing, spectacular house music, gorgeous interspatial and earthy polyrhythmic sounds of jungle and DnB. The music will be full, clear, deep and loud but not too loud.

At Revel we adhere to and value the original rave creed of PLUR:

Peace:

Find peace within yourself to help foster peace in the world. As many of you know there is no shortage of strife and violence in our world. Sometimes it seems like throwing a festival when there is so much violence happening is crazy but it is also important to nurture our connections with each other and to grow the frequencies of peace, love, unity and respect in our world.

Love:

Love yourself. This means to take care of yourself and to be self responsible. This means to make loving choices for yourself and your well being and to foster a feeling of safety for yourself and others.

Love others: when we truly love and treat ourselves well we are better able to love others and treat them with kindness and respect.

Unity:

Unity within yourself is not always easy but is essential to becoming integrated within. Right brain with left brain, mind with body, heart and soul

Unity with others is not always easy but is more possible when we have a unifying goal or vision to unify ourselves around and work together towards.

Respect:

Respect yourself! Be kind to yourself, watch what you put in your body and the things you say to yourself! Listen to your inner cues and act accordingly.

Respect others! This goes for all the people around us as well as the land and animals!

On that note we at Revel offer much respect to everyone in our community. Those of you who are coming..see you on the dance floor!
