OUR SPACES in 2027...
liberation stage
New Liberation stage design for 2027: a 20ft container will be permanently installed to host the stage and DJ along one of its long sides. Attendees can dance under the stars directly in front of the stage, or under one of two canopies suspended from the container's two front corners.
unity stage
New Unity stage design for 2027: a 20ft container will be permanently installed to host the stage and DJ along one of its long sides. Attendees can dance under the stars directly in front of the stage, or under one of two canopies suspended from the container's two front corners.
foreplay stage
13m x 16m stretch tent set up for workshops spanning wellness, connection, and play — from Yoga, Vedanta & Tantra Philosophy to Spicy Conscious Touch. Check out our workshop lineup here.
PLAYSURE
13m x 24.5m, which is two stretch tents joined into one 318m² space where curiosity meets care. Everyone entering must hold a Level 2 Pass, confirming they know and understand our rules. Consent Guardians remind guests of our core rules at the entrance, so everyone can explore with confidence, clarity, and consent.
JAGUAR HOUSE
13m x 18m stretch tent housing our healers, tattoo artists, and the Kinnect Content Studio (KCS). Our healers are all brought in by Jaguar House Collective (hence the tent's name), our tattoo artists travel from all over the country, and KCS runs interviews with DJs, workshop hosts, illustrators, vendors, staff, and guests.
THE GLADE
The Glade is arguably the most stunning spot on site — set at the top of a short hill, just far enough off the beaten path to feel like a discovery. We're saving it for the right activation: something special enough to be worth the walk. If that's you, we'd love to talk.
Chill in The village
These two 5m bell tents in The Village serve as part chill area, part care space — a place to catch your breath and reset. If you'd like to improve or decorate them, they're yours to work with.
CHILL in the playground
These two 5m bell tents in The Playground serve as part chill area, part care space — a place to catch your breath and reset. If you'd like to improve or decorate them, they're yours to work with.
bar 01
Our largest bar, set in The Playground — double the size of Bar 02. Built from 18mm treated plywood, ready to be branded however you like. It's built to serve the crowds who gather here after dark: those watching the Liberation (main) Stage, gathered at the fire circle, cheering on our aerial artists, or winding down after time in the 318m² Playsure tent.
bar 02
Our Village bar — built from the same 18mm treated plywood as Bar 01, sized for the more intimate heart of the festival. Yours to brand as you wish. The Village is home to the majority of our workshops, food vendors, and market stallholders, plus our 14-person sauna and the Unity Stage. Where The Playground comes alive at night, The Village is our daytime hub.
