On site

Colourfest is offering a collection of amazing events, workshops, performances and chill-outs designed to bring 900 people together in private land in the heart of the Dorset countryside. Offering attendees a chance to de-stress, explore and enhance life using yoga, theatre, art, music and dance.

Details of location will be sent later to those who have purchased tickets. The festival has the use of 4 rooms in the newly renovated house which they are using to heighten the quality of the yoga and movement based classes. Oak floors and huge fireplaces, the Library and Tapestry room.

There are many specialist workshop tutors, profound talks, lectures and classes, performances and live music. There are sound and voice workshops to empower, nourish and soothe the soul and melodic and hypnotic chant sessions from the eastern traditions.

In the evenings there will be some events to help wind down the day alternatively there are opportunities for a more upbeat evening with live music and conscious dance uniting skilled musicians, DJs and artists from around the globe specializing in this type of event.

There's a full children's program of nurturing and uplifting activities including yoga, crafts, storytelling and theatre. The healing fields provide complementary therapists for a relaxing massage or other treatments from a wide field of disciplines, supported by our yurt sauna and shower area.

Camping

There are huge fields (no pylons ) in which to camp, way off the roads and right in the heart of the Dorset Countryside. Plus there are bell tents to hire, and you are able to park if you wish next to your tent, but that area may be slightly further from the festival than the general camping areas.

More information will be here when available.
