Festival of YOU is a one-day wellness extravaganza designed to ignite every part of you—mind, body, heart, and soul.
It’s a celebration of your whole self and a powerful step toward deeper connection, healing, and joy.

Festival of YOU started with a simple but powerful idea:

What if wellness was more inclusive, more joyful—and way less beige?

We were tired of cookie-cutter wellness spaces, so we created something different. An immersive experience where movement meets music, where self-care feels like celebration, and where community and diversity take centre stage.

This is wellness, redefined—with soul-shaking connection, bold energy, and zero apologies.

A Day to Celebrate Your Whole Self (Yes, all of it.)

Join us at 3 Danks Street for a one-day, in-person experience dedicated to real self-care, radical self-love, and remembering who the hell you are.

What to Expect

This isn’t your typical wellness event!

This is your space to:

  • Move your body with purpose and joy

  • Try new tools for mindfulness, embodiment + emotional wellbeing

  • Express yourself freely, creatively, and without apology.

  • Be held, seen, and celebrated in community

  • Whether you're here to recharge, reconnect, shift something big, or just vibe out with good humans, there’s a space for you here.

What’s Included

  • Dynamic workshops to move, inspire + ignite you

  • Soul-nourishing talks from thought leaders + facilitators

  • Curated self-care, creativity + lifestyle experiences

  • A seriously uplifting crew of like-minded legends

Why You’ll Love It

Because it’s not about fixing yourself.
It’s about celebrating yourself.


This day is for joy. For alignment. For taking up space and coming home to the wholeness you already are.

So mark the date.
Come as you are.


And get ready to celebrate the most important relationship you’ve got—the one with yourself.
