We know planning for Retreat Yourself can feel overwhelming at times. This page is home to everything you need to know when planning our time together.

music & performance

Music is the heartbeat in the village and there is no shortage of artists & performers keeping you entertained during our time together. Feel free to enjoy the resident jazz band at the Restaurant, disco DJ’s spinning records at the Roller Rink, live performances at the Forest Stage, ecstatic conscious dance at Good Vibrations and a little more of a boogie at the Secret Dancefloor. There truly is something for everyone.

Music isn’t all that’s on offer though – the Late Night Comedy is one of the festival highlights and has become a Friday evening tradition at Retreat Yourself.
