After the music, everyone sits down together for a nourishing plant-based dinner and dessert, prepared with care by volunteers. It's an easy, friendly way to unwind at the end of the weekend, meet like-minded people and leave feeling calmer, lighter and more connected. The whole evening is volunteer-run and by donation, so everyone can come whatever their budget.

Ideal for anyone curious about kirtan or mantra meditation, yoga practitioners wanting to deepen their practice, or anyone looking for a soulful, social Sunday night with good food and good company.

Run with Ecstatic Dance Melbourne, Sacred Raving and Sparkly Yoga, the program includes conscious dance, live music and DJs, breathwork, yoga, kirtan, a sound journey, connection workshops and talks, an Indigenous smoking ceremony, fire spinning and drumming circles, a healing zone, market stalls and plenty for kids. Lovefest is a sober, leave-no-trace event, and everyone who comes helps create it. Bring your song, your dance and your gifts.

Ideal for families, friends and anyone looking for real connection, creativity and celebration in nature, without the alcohol and noise of a typical festival.

Get your tix... We checked out the last LoveFest in Vic and it was an absolute blast!

Following part of the Jumping Creek Reserve to Black Flat route, the walk blends grounding breathwork, guided meditation, mindful walking and quiet reflection by the river, with moments of stillness and easy conversation with others. Move at your own pace and take part in whatever way feels comfortable. There's no pressure to share anything personal.

Ideal for anyone wanting to slow down, feel calmer and more grounded, and start the weekend refreshed and connected to nature, themselves and community.

The idea is to give us a clear focus and provide a container to get to know each other in and express our unique leadership.

Feel free to share ideas here too

Amazing energy and lots of positive ideas about different ways we can contribute to community.

We will gather next fortnight same time to nut out a clear vision for an online summit that we can run together. 

The possible names, duration, themes, and structure is still up to be created. 

The main focus of the summit is to give our group a clear container to get to know each other in and express our unique leadership. 

There will be room for other parts to that summit including individual mentoring and supporting other people‘s dreams to come in to being.

In two weeks, we will form the team who are gonna make this summit happen and then that team will start weaving an awesome online event for the community.

Victoria Whelan⁩ will create a document for those interested to start putting their ideas. 

Will probably start a second thread specifically for people who want to be involved in the summit. 

For those of you on the call that I summarize that well? Anything more to add?

In short, it’s a free community leadership initiation event on 25th July, Saturday morning, in Brunswick for three hours.
