Convento Festival
WILLKOMMEN, BENVENUTI, WELCOME to our retreat-style festival! With a small group and a well-thought-out schedule, this five days are all about diving deep—into yourself and into real connections with others. Expect high-quality workshops that are meaningful yet light-hearted, guiding you through a journey that’s both fun and transformative. It’s an intimate, relaxed space where you can slow down, be yourself, and explore what truly matters.
Our Vision
Our vision is to gather as a tribe, embracing the deep sense of belonging which resides in each of us.
We come together in humbleness and respect for both nature and one other, embarking on a shared journey to co-create a sanctuary of love, attentive listening, and profound transformation.
_______________
Join us in this adventure and connect with your essence, sharing an experience of personal growth.
We await you with open hearts and minds, ready to explore your potential!

What is new in 2025?
In 2025, we aim to create a more intimate and meaningful experience. With only 80 tickets available, our focus is on quality over quantity. This smaller scale allows us to shape the festival as a retreat—a space to truly immerse yourself in practices of embodiment and attunement.
We’re not about chasing big names or packing in as many facilitators as possible. Instead, we carefully select experienced teachers who can guide you through the journey with intention and depth.
Our thoughtfully designed schedule will include recurring sessions, giving you the chance to grow and deepen your practice, rather than rushing from one workshop to the next in a frenzy of spiritual consumption.
Where is it?
We will inhabit an ancient and sacred space: Il Convento and spend a few days together in the midst of the wild hills of northern Tuscany, Italy. The building is a former monastery, which was constructed in 1549. The surroundings of Il Convento will serve as our festival ground.

FAQ
Your questions and answers
You have a few options: - Retreat Center: We offer 27 beds at our beautiful retreat center, ranging from dormitory-style to private single rooms. This must be booked separately along with your festival ticket. - Camping: There will be a dedicated camping area where you can pitch your tent for free. - Camper Vans: If you're arriving with a camper, you’ll need to purchase an additional camper ticket.
We offer an optional full board meal plan at the retreat center, featuring delicious, wholesome vegetarian Mediterranean cuisine. This must be booked in advance along with your festival ticket, and availability is limited to just 40 meal passes. Please note, that this option is available to all guests, including those staying in the camping area. For those camping, you are welcome to bring your own food. BRING YOUR OWN DISHES! You can stock up at the small supermarket in the village of Casola in Lunigiana, and it’s allowed to use small camping gas cookers in the camping area.
In August, it’s high summer in Casola. Pack your light clothing and get ready to celebrate the heat with us! For cooling off, there are two rivers surrounding the village and a cold on-site spring. Plus, the many trees and thick walls of the retreat center provide plenty of shade and keep the heat outside. While days can be hot, nights are usually pleasant or cool, thanks to the large forests that help lower temperatures and prevent heat retention. Sudden summer rains are possible, but they are quite rare.
Your family is more than welcome! Children can enter the festival for free till the age of 14 years.
Sorry, although we would love to integrate also the animal world, we have to draw a line somewhere and can't accommodate pets at the festival.
We will open the doors already Sunday 3rd August afternoon at 4pm.
We ask you to leave the place on Friday 8th of August after lunchtime.
You need cash. There is an ATM in the village.
