Good Vibrations Society is a magical 3-day celebration of music, wellness, and community, set in the breathtaking beauty of Ashdown Forest. It’s an invitation to connect with others, embrace your individuality, and revel in the wonders of nature.
Dance to phenomenal live music from around the globe, wake up with refreshing wild swims, and energise your spirit with free yoga and dance workshops. Engage your mind with thought-provoking talks, let your imagination run wild in the evolving playscape, and wander the enchanting forest on guided walks. When it’s time to relax, unwind with a cold drink in the cozy onsite pub or savour a hearty meal in the bustling food court.
This is your chance to celebrate life, friendship, and self-expression in a truly unforgettable setting.
An experience you’ll carry with you long after the festival ends.
