About the festival
Are you passionate about the handpan? We are too!
The combination of melody with rhythm.
The intuitive flow, the frequency of each handpan.
The low dings.
The vast 3-octave instruments.
Handpans with bottom notes, with cyclops notes, made of amber steel, stainless steel, handpans with new scales, new soundscapes..
Yes, we love playing handpans! And our friends love making and tuning new handpans. At the end of the day, we all love jamming together.
tea ceremony
About Tea
Tea is offered in silence. Bringing us together, helping us arrive and provides a meditative presence throughout the journey.
We believe that the ceremonial spirit of tea is an excellent guide to encourage you to arrive in the space, which is an invitation for complete immersion in the practice.
Buffet lunch
During the free time of the day, you can enjoy buffet lunch at the resort’s restaurant (not included in the festival ticket), you can swim in the resort’s 3-story swimming pools, or visit the handpan makers and explore the instruments.
Presentations
In the early afternoon, we will have the handpan maker’s presentations to familiarise you more with the instruments and their differences/similarities/prices etc.
Artist performances
After 5:00 pm we can all enjoy intimate artist performances in the most amazing closed space overlooking the incredible jungle views from the windows.
Ecstatic Dance journeys
From 8:30 pm onwards we will go on Ecstatic Dance journeys together, guided by some of the top ecstatic dance DJs in Bali.
Sound healing
Feel free to practise your contact dance on the wooden floors, open spaces of the resort until we all melt together with a sound healing journey to close each night.
Inspiring people are joining us to teach workshops on contact improvisation dance, to lead jam sessions (handpan + dance), to facilitate tea ceremonies and to guide ecstatic dance DJ sets.
Our intentions are to create a conscious gathering where we all feel as one tribe, uplifting each other, connecting through the music/movement, thriving in high frequencies, and honouring the devotional aspect of life.
